Well done nurse Carrie-ann for looking after our precious little one so well , including all hours through the night too! 💜Xx. Linda has left our Go fund me page open ,as although we don’t expect it there were a few people still wanting to donate for them on payday! Sunrise’s Vet treatment continues so we are very grateful of any help! https://gofund.me/143d07a5

Wow look at Sunrise on his “walk out” wellness check, he didn’t want to stop trotting & cantering! Bless him, he’s so happy & so is Mum!

💙R.I.P Maverick💙
Last Friday was a very sad day, as we lost our beloved big boy Maverick 23 years old.
We nursed him a long over his last week when he was not feeling himself. We knew old age was catching up with him, but he rallied and wanted to carry on ...so we did.
He was a really big horse & his back end was causing concern & his kidneys weren’t working properly. It was a take each day & assess to keep him comfortable with pain relief and lots of extra tlc. He still went out and had the sun on his back each day & still had a play with his best friend Pride some days.
Old age finally caught up with him and he went to sleep for his last time tucked up in his stable.
Unfortunately the really big,heavy horses are like the large breed dogs & inevitably some don’t always live as long as the smaller ones.
Mav had a hard life before he came to us, he was a mans event horse and it was obvious he had been ridden very hard from a youngster. Then he belonged to a lady whom he was a bit too much for.
This is when Karl heard about Mav and brought him home to New Range. Karl enjoyed riding and doing a bit of jumping with him.
He always had a real soft spot for Mav so I know he will really miss him.
Carrie-ann gained confidence in her jumping riding Mav & had lots of fun with him. Then when the time came she was an absolutely brilliant nurse to Mav during his last days, which I’m very proud of her for. She will also miss him a lot.
For the last 10 years Mav has been with us, I think with his easier work load and lots of playtime that he thought he had come to Butlins!
He has helped a lot of people to learn to ride and gain confidence & he still enjoyed a bit of jumping with the better riders in his earlier years.
Over this last year he had been semi retired due to arthritis, although some days you wouldn’t have believed it ,rearing up or all fours off the ground playing with Pride or some of the younger horses.
Mav had lots of faces to pull, including
