Make content about: Evelyn took in two rescue ponies
Losing her two horses left Evelyn facing an empty paddock. Taking in rescue ponies Ringo and Hovis gave her daily life purpose again.
This story
After their elderly horse Brian and pony Jack were put to sleep, Evelyn and her partner Martin could not bear facing an empty paddock. She took in two loan ponies, Ringo and Hovis, who had previously lived wild on Bodmin. Because the ponies are not for riding, Evelyn keeps their minds active with ground games using cones, platforms and tunnels. Looking after them every day has supported her physical and mental health.

Join Evelyn in the paddock to see how she trains Ringo and Hovis through their ground obstacle course.
