Hi

I was reunited with my home-bred little mare I loaned out to family friends nr Macclesfield and they sold her whilst she was on loan and told me she'd been destroyed after vet tests on her brain. It came to light that Henna aka Pash was alive and well living in Gloucestershire. I was relieved to see Henna but absolutely horrified by the extent of scarring on her body and muscle damage to her neck. The scarring on her legs look quite symetrical and similar to horses who'd had denerving back in the days. She has a loving and caring mum now who has kept her for 4 years and I am thankful she has finally found peace in her life.

If anyone recognises henna/pash from these scars or has any idea how they were caused I would be grateful.

Do you have any pictures of her, not just scars? Im gloucester and go to shows every weekend so may recognise her? xx I know of a Pasha that did small showjumping classes? x
 
I'm confident that we know her history from Winter 2008, but any information from before this time is welcome.

I just wondered scar-wise if anyone had seen similar examples?
 
The scars on her back is probably from bad fitting tack.

The scars on her legs look like accident scars, rather than man made through firing etc.

I agree.

Leg scars could be from putting a leg through flat wire/stock fencing. If they were on the inside I'd say possibly knocking herself in field.
