Latest News from our EMW Wales Sanctuary

Here in wintery Wales, we are very relieved to be nearing the end of a verycold winter, although it is snowing heavily outside as I type.  We have been joined this winter by, new resident, Ross. A wonderful 20
old cob type, who has taken it upon himself to play daddy to youngsters,Flyn and Beamer. He is not always very patient with them but they bothadore him so he must be doing something right!
  Our other new boy, Eddie (EMW Wizard) has wintered well. Eddie has had a very traumatic past and due to very rough handling, he will not allow us near his head. With the help of heavy sedatives, Eddie was castrated last November. We managed to get a head collar on him after two days and believe that with the correct handling Eddie will respond well and have a happy and useful life ahead of him.
  Bramble, the sweet little Shetland mare, came back from loan as her companion was joining the RDA. She is available for loan as a companion, ridden or driving pony.
Bramble has been used for the Saddle Chariot in the past. Check the web site for more details.
For all those who remember Atom, 

              he is doing well, has no sign of his
              past medical problems recurring and               back in work and is on loan locally!
Well done to all those who gave to his appeal, it really was worth it.
 






Enrique, the mule was backed last week. It was very interesting as mules are so different to other equines and need to be made to think it was all there idea in the first place. Hopefully we made it all into a game and it all went very well.Enrique is such a bright boy and needs to have his energy channeled into something good!
  With spring round the corner we are once again on the campaign trail,with a visit to Westminster next month, then attendance at UK markets we have not managed to cover in person recently .
It's all small steps, however last year,after much complaining, we were instrumental in the end to several horse fairs. This, for this charity ,makes it all worth while.
