Bransby Takes Into Care Sick Foal

Following a telephone call from a concerned member of the public on Saturday, the Charity has taken into care two mares and a foal.

The animals, all belonging to an elderly gentleman living in an isolated farm in Herefordshire, who had become too frail to be able to cater for their needs.

Mystique one of the mares had a foal 2 weeks ago. The foal that staff have named Topaz, contracted Pneumonia and was very poorly. She has received Veterinary attention and will continue to be closely monitored to help her overcome this potentially life threatening infection.
The second mare is elderly and in foal so will need specialist care from our dedicated staff to ensure her needs are met.
Fortunately we were notified quickly enough, which has enabled us to react in time before any real suffering has occurred.

The ownership of these animals is now in the safe hands of Bransby Home of Rest for Horses and we will keep you all informed of their progress.

If you want a horse but can't afford to get one why not adopt a horse from bransby it goes to help the horse and you can visit your horse for free I have adopted a Shetland named Twiggy who was abandoned before having a foal so had to give birth by the side of a road unfortunately the foal didn't make it.
