Can’t resist sharing the wee stunner lovely Pip graced us with a couple of weeks ago. She had a rocky pregnancy, a bout of colic, abscesses, a mystery lameness, it was so stressful! Thankfully in the last couple of months the grass came through and did her the world of good…and she had the easiest of deliveries. A lovely strong, very keen filly who was suckling while her back legs were still in mum
Mum is a 17hh ISH, sire is 15hh buckskin Welsh D. We did originally have another stallion in mind but Pip didn’t take any kind of interest in him whatsoever (in-hand cover), luckily the stud had another lovely younger stallion who she was infatuated with and he’s done a wonderful job!
Foal is ridiculously confident and brave, she was in the vets pockets at 3 hours old and at 1 week old I almost had to carry her in from the field as she was having a nap and no amount of shaking her awake was getting her on her feet
