Murphy has been having a couple of trailer loading sessions prior to him going to join with his new family at Goldstraw Farm tomorrow.
He was a super star at practice ,as always 🌟 .
Murphy is also going to be continuing his work providing a few pony parties and therapy sessions at his new home, do follow their page if you are interested in what plans lie ahead go to Mud & Magic CIC , Ness.
I know my little friend 🦄 will be loved and looked after.
I have known his new owner for many years now, her children came to ride with us here at Hooves For Healing, they have been visiting Murphy on Sundays for the past few months bonding with him and getting used to his ways, and visa versa.
Thank you Murphy for being as wonderful as you are, you deserve new little people to love and care for you , your stable will always be here for you ❤️

Hi everyone, little update, Hooves for Healing charity will be officially taken off the Gov.uk charity commission pages over the next couple of days.
Sadly our reason for closure was due to me having a heart attack, 5 days in Liverpool Heart and chest hospital and not feeling well enough to continue with the running of H for H.
I am in a better place now health wise and have been assisting with a couple of new Equine therapy centres starting up in Wirral.
We were forerunners in the provision of Equine assisted Learning , I have cherished memories of so many individuals, thank you.
Watch this space for new providers 🙂

The horses, ponies and Duncan are doing well , it's been a mild winter so far thankfully.
Today we had a routine visit from Tom Clothier Farrier to trim Hooves for all, so appreciative of your time, thank you.
Murphy is seen having his final trim here at Horse Channel view, he will be moving to his new home Goldstraw Farm early February by plan, Tom also visits Goldstraw so will hopefully remain his farrier🦄.

My beautiful boy Murphy has been meeting with a lovely new family over the past month who will be potentially re homing him next month with a view to him becoming their family pet and also continue his therapy work, he needs some children to love and fuss him, he can teach them so much.
He will be staying local at Goldstraw Farm so we will keep connected ❤️ 🦄

Christmas is not always an easy time for many people , if you are struggling please get in touch with someone who you can talk with you and share your problem.

A welcome delivery of hay from our local supplier .
All ponies are up to date with their hoof trims by Tom Clothier Farrier , greatful for his continued support 🙏.
Ponies and horses are all doing well.

I had an invitation to visit Goldstraw Farm in Ness, purchased by lovely friends who were also former clients here.
They have some great plans for their fabulous farm which overlooks the Dee estuary.
They have a couple of Topline Equine Academy horses grazing the land Kizzy and Cassius who look content in there new settings, its just wow!
It is wonderful to see new beginnings, enthusiasm with passion to make positive changes.
Hooves for Healing wish you well and if we can offer support and advice where we can, we will be only too happy. 🐎
Duncan too , i think he is blowing kisses, Murphy looking on, not one to be left out 🙂 🫏 x
