PEARL

Rescued in March, 2023. Rehomed.

Pearl is a 13.1 hand pony mare, breed unknown, estimated at 11 years old. She was severely neglected: emaciated, wormy, sick with bronchitis, and recently blinded in the right eye by a blunt force trauma. Pearl was deemed unhandled- not even halter broke- and was terrified of people. She did not know what grain was; during quarantine, a second horse had to live in the stall with her for five days to teach her to eat it. Pony Up Rescue intervened to save Pearl because she was unlikely to otherwise to be rescued.

While with us, Pearl gained approximately 200 pounds, learned to love being groomed, to cross-tie, bathe, go under saddle beautifully at the walk/trot/canter, trail ride and jump cross-rails. She found a fantastic home, alongside Moomin, with a family in CT.
