LANBURN CONNEMARAS

Mossie had a very bad attack of Laminitis this year and we only just saved him. Our vet, Dr Pauline Williams, mobile Xray Sussex Equine and Farrier, Bobby Craig worked support alongside me whilst I nursed him 24/7 through the illness. Finally, we managed to get Steward clogs on him and he turned a corner. Mossie is 26yrs old and has Cushings PPID, EMS and melanomas. He loves his stable and is a very calm, patient and intelligent 14.1hh Connemara. Any less of a pony would not have coped. Even my vet, Pauline, said he was 'Tough'. He is a very strong willed and determined pony who loves life, his food and me. Mossie never gave up and that's why I kept fighting with him... We are still looking for a mare, perhaps a similar age to Rosie and with a special 'old' bloodline. The 'Dale Haze' line would be nice to have. We are out on business in Ireland in due course and it will give us the perfect opportunity to do some hunting!! She must be something very special, like Rosie... Lanburn..
