My pony went on a serious diet after moving to a yard where he could be on bare grazing. He looks trim now but the weigh tape says he’s put 10kg on in the last 4 weeks. I’m hoping some of that is his winter pyjamas bulking him out!

Haven't been able to post an update in a long time! Fluffy is still with us and my daughter still loves him. We aren't able to do as much work with him as the nights are darker and fitting in riding between work etc had been hard. Fluffy was previously in work most days and was pretty fit.
