Fidget

Fidget

Available

Rehome Classification: Companion

Age: 14

Breed: Moorland

Height: 13.2hh

Gender: Mare

Colour/Markings: Skewbald

Personality
Fidget is a lovely, sweet natured mare who likes human interaction. She is good for the farrier and vet. She might be a little unsettled to start in a new environment so will need time to get accustomed to the change. Once settled into a routine, she will be content to stay in the stable on her own as needed.

Health and Training

Health Status:

Fidget has arthritis in her coffin joints which will need to be monitored in her new home. She does have shoes on in front so would qualify for our Prime Pastures scheme where a financial contribution is available to cover the cost.


Training Level:

Fidget enjoys going for in-hand walks but this would need to be in a quiet location as she can become anxious in traffic.

Fidget's Past

Fidget came to the Sanctuary as part of our 2018 merger with another charity. We have few details of her life before this. 

Fidget's Future

Rehoming Fee: Not applicable. (Prime Pastures scheme)

Fidget would need to have her grazing and weight monitored to avoid obesity. She enjoys a quieter environment. Due to her laid-back nature (once settled), she is easy to handle and would make a lovely companion equine.  

 

Our Rehoming Advisors are available to help every day of the year. We will work to support you and Fidget as she settles in her 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.
