Earlier this year, we nominated our little Fudge for RDA Pony of the Year. Sadly, she didn’t win, but today marks Fudge’s 20th Anniversary of being a Diamond Pony.
Fudge is our 26 year old, 13.2hh skewbald mare, and our longest serving pony. Fudge is brilliant at her job in RDA, always safe and sturdy on and off lead. She also supports participants in her role as our hippotherapy pony. Fudge has always put the safety of her riders first, helping them to feel secure and confident by showing them her calm, kind, and laidback nature.
As well as being the greatest pony in RDA lessons, her love for having cuddles makes her perfect to use in ‘Tea with a Pony’ and pony care sessions as she would happily stand for hours being groomed by our participants. Fudge’s gentle soul has allowed so many to connect with her, helping them to build trust, and she has always been a firm favourite for both participants and volunteers.
Fudge is known for her careful approach to work, but when she is done for the day, she enjoys relaxing and having fun with the herd.
We feel that the amazing work Fudge has done over her 20 years of service shows that she is Diamond’s Pony of the Year. Now who could deny her that title? We love you Fudge ❤️
