Bertie is just 3 years old. He was found running loose on the road with badly overgrown feet and he was covered in burrs. Someone retrieved Bertie and put him in a field full of Arab brood mares. Needless to say, he caused havoc being a young hot blooded male!
The Police were called to deal with the situation and he was left tied to a telegraph pole. We later found out that Bertie had been left tied to the telegraph pole from 1pm until 10am the following morning. Needless to say, as soon as we became aware of the situation, we went to pick Bertie up. It was lucky that he didn't strangle himself.
No one ever laid claim to Bertie so we went on to have him castrated. Bertie has got such a lovely personality and loves a kiss and a cuddle! We are very lucky that a wonderful home came up for Bertie recently and he will be joining his new foster family at the end of November. It is hugely satisfying when there is a happy ending!
