Jerry is now 2 weeks old so thought id post some up to date pics of him and his foster mum, lightning. He is doing great and has been in local press, bbc news and an article is to appear in horse and hound too - not bad for 2 weeks of age

Yeah the vets in Edinburgh found her through the foaling bank and i am extrememly grateful for that, as would have struggled to cope with him especially with losing his mum.

He is known as just jerry at moment ! Not very exciting i know. He is by tb stallion Handsome Stranger xx(by Hand in Glove) His mum was a tb x by Proud Knight(by Sir Gaylord)
 
Hes lovely. Do you think he'll grow up with the attitude and stubborness of a Welshie?? Nature v nurture? You could do worse! Best of luck with him.
 
Yes knowing me he probably will - mind you i do like em with a bit of character and i dare say he will learn that off my extremely cheeky tb x welsh section d !!
 
Yes thats right - would just like to say what a wonderful job this organisation does. This experience has really raised my awareness of this as i had never visited a centre before although i am a supporter of world horse welfare. I am very impressed with the organisation and the amazing work that they do. Would urge everyone to visit their local centre and help where they can. Also was very surprised by the amount of really lovely horses looking for new homes.
