The RSPCA - Saving animals, not destroying them.

Hi! My name is Hannah. Thank you so much for looking at my blog, a lot of people understand the issue of animal abuse, but don’t know how they can help. I have strong feelings  about the RSPCA, so your support means a lot to me!

Here is Polly’s story:

‘She was found in a field, alone. She had no one. She hadn’t been fed, wormed or loved. Her ribs showed through, there was almost no way she would survive. The Rspca found her. She was so weak; she could barely walk to the shelter. Her owner was tracked down, and he instantly handed her over, as he could not care for her. When she came to Felledge Equine and Animal Centre, she was half the average weight, and she couldn’t eat proper food. She was on a special diet. Only just surviving……..

When her health began to improve, the RSPCA tried to rehome her. She was scared of humans, she couldn’t trust them. Scarred for life. But, the RSPCA was consistent, and she was soon adopted by Rachael Duffy. Rachael spent countless hours training Polly, gaining her trust.

Soon Polly was suitable for riding, thanks to Rachael’s work with the RSPCA, a few more weeks was all it took! Polly is now riding with Rachael in competitions everywhere! Polly is energetic, enthusiastic and happy to ride. She couldn’t have done it without the RSPCA’s support.’
