My mare has unfortunately suffered two tendon injuries in the past 3 years and whilst she is now 100% sound, we have made the very sad decision to stop competing her. Due to the risk of further/ more severe damage being done.
She is a 16.2 Dutch warmblood xISH 12y/o she has been used for eventing, show jumping then moving into dressage due to injuries.
She has previously had two foals before the age of 10 and we are now considering sending her to be a surrogate mare.
She would be ideal for somewhere like Twemlows or Beaufort however I care so much for her I don't want her to be abandoned as soon as she can no longer have foals.
I know it sounds unrealistic but a forever home is idea, is there any way I can do this???
Please now harsh words this has been a 3 year long struggle and love this mare very dearly however we cannot afford to keep a horse which we no longer want to risk riding.
