Health and Training

Health Status:

Beckamoor does have sweet itch, an allergic reaction to the saliva of midges. This is managed with lotions and rugs, which will come with him to his new home. He will need his weight monitoring and grazing restricted to prevent obesity. 


Training Level:

Beckamoor is good to handle and stands nicely for the vet and farrier. He will happily go for walks and has been introduced to hand agility. Beckamoor loves exploring any form of enrichment.

Beckamoor's Past

Beckamoor came to us as part of a merger with another charity in 2018. We don’t have many details of his life before that. 

Beckamoor's Future

Rehoming Fee: £75

If his new family had the experience, he could be backed for ridden work. Based on his size, rider’s weight limit would be 8 stone. 

Beckamoor will need a home where he will always have equine company as he can become anxious if left alone. 

A windy, exposed or coastal site would be the best match for him to help control his sweet itch, however, this is not essential. 

Our Rehoming Advisors are available to help every day of the year. We will work to support you and Beckamoor as he settles in his new home and can offer training and advice as needed.  

Become a Sanctuary at Home Carer

To help you become a Sanctuary at Home Carer, we have a dedicated team managing our scheme and their job is to help find the right equine for you and then support you throughout your rehoming experience.

Our Pathways

We have three rehoming pathways within our Sanctuary at Home scheme. These are:

Prime Pastures

This scheme enables us to rehome horses and ponies with long-term medical conditions that are manageable. You'll be required to help support their condition with regular monitoring and we contribute towards the costs of their veterinary treatments.

Foster

Working alongside us to socialise and train young or rideable horses for future work in our education programmes. You'll help provide a home setting for these horses to mature before returning to the Sanctuary for further assessment. We work closely with you to keep up to date records of their training, achievements, milestones, setbacks and all aspects of their care.

Standard

Means you help provide a sanctuary at home for as many years as you can for a horse or pony from our charity on a loan basis.
