FOUND - Shetland Stallion abandoned by loaner East Anglia / poss Yorkshire

[brighteyes]

I'm not talking about anything to do with the RSPCA?!!!

I'm talking about how bizarre it is that this pony has twice gone missing, then original owners have been found, who have then both decided to just give them away!

As for reporting it - does it matter what the RSPCA would have done or not - there are other charities to report to you know!!

Same thing occurred to me, if the pony is the same one (and it sounds suspiciously like it is).

Gosh what a debate! It is the same pony as the one my friend took into her yard in May. It was a long shot but when the OP was asking about a Shetty Stallion strawberry roan and with the age in East Anglia I just thought it *might* be the same one (I for one have only seen one Strawberry roan shetty and it was him!).

The original owners of the pony are non-horsey and inherited him when the father in law passed away. Over time the pony's goat companions died and he was on his own and started to escape, the owners decided to rehome him to what they thought was a better home with company. They GAVE him away (he was not loaned) to the person who dumped him on the common.

The person who dumped him (and another horse) tried to tell the original owner when they contacted her to ask how he was (as a result of this post) that he had been stolen...
