Meet Hendrewen Desert Rose (Fosse)

Share this profile with friends

Fosse is ready to find a home as a non ridden companion. She is an incredibly kind natured horse, who gets on very well with others, especially geldings. Fosse's ideal home would be a small yard where she could be a companion to a few horses, as she doesn't like being left on her own. She is very good to catch, handle and for the vet and farrier. Fosse is one of those horses who isn't overly bothered about being groomed and fussed over a lot, and would happily live out 24/7 with a rug on, but will come into a stable if needed. She does need her weight watching in the summer months as she is a good doer through the summer. If you can offer Fosse a home, please apply online.
