SOPHIE’S HERD
Sophie is the herd leader of the four little ponies.
She came to us as an extreme rescue with extreme abuse that we never discuss. She was terrified of humans when she first arrived, and we spent hours, days and weeks taking it in turns to just sit in the field so she could see us and know we caused no threat or harm.
The day she finally made her own decision to walk close and take a carrot from one of us was a dream come true.
She is a brave, courageous, beautiful girl who can still be a little nervous, but she nurtures and leads her little herd wonderfully and she is loved and respected by all humans and ponies.
Sunny
Sunny is a small but mighty pony. We rescued him from a lady with ill health who explained to us that he had been born with insufficient bones in his legs which is why he is so tiny. Sunny is not aware of this and is full of life, cheekiness, stubborn, persuasive, comical and gorgeous. His favourite things are carrots, food, playing, his best mate Muffin, having his photo taken and more carrots! We have to keep him out of the mud because of his little legs but he lives a happy, fulfilled life with us and we think he is a superhero and a legend.
Sapphire
Sapphire is just gorgeous! She is bossy and bold and hilarious. She used to be used for breeding so came to us with a lot of anxiety. However, her personality has now blossomed into a gorgeous happy girl who knows what she wants and likes to express herself by usually telling the boys off and asking us for more carrots. She has naturally helped some humans who have visited us, and she is a natural healing pony. She is remarkable.
