Christmas visits 🎄🎅

My little man is only just 17 months old and helps look after the animals morning noon and night, and has been doing so in all weathers since he was 3 days old 🥰 this is his favourite pony Boris, and his favourite activity cleaning up p**p 😂💩

In my opinion it's so important for children to have time outdoors and learn the importance of looking after animals, especially ponies as it's not all about riding them 💙

🐣 Easter 🐣 - sounds ridiculous I know but we have one space left for Good Friday 18th April, we won't be travelling far on this day as don't want to risk being stuck in heavy holiday traffic on the motorway with the animals.

We are in Liverpool on the Saturday 19th April so can squeeze in one more party or care home visit in Liverpool, or on our route

The residents absolutely adored him 🥰

📣Important Announcement 📣
If you book a visit from us for your care home/business can you please make sure it is written in the diary.
Today I organised staff for the visit, organised childcare for my toddler, filled out the legal paperwork for our animals to travel, gathered the animals up and drove to our booking 30 mins away, to be greeted with " sorry we didn't know you were coming the lady who booked you doesn't work for us anymore". That was that, I had to leave.

This is not ok.

Not only did I lose a day's work myself, I am also out of pocket now for fuel and staff wages. I also could have used this day as a very rare day off with my son and taken him out for the day.

I have two stories so I have no idea who's telling the truth if it was in the diary or not, but if you do change your mind you only have to say, I can usually fill a space quite easily or I can have a lovely day off!

I don't ask for deposits from care homes because I found that the big companies just don't send them anyway so it wasn't working asking for deposits from these types of places, but maybe I need to be a bit firmer about these things in the future!

*What animals do for us 🥚🥛
*Sheep shearing and what we can use the wool for 🧣🧶

As well as using the opportunity to have lots of fluffy cuddles, first experiences, and over come fears 🥰

To discuss a visit to your school please email us - [email protected]

We are fully booked for this year but have lots of space left for 2025!

Shearing day ✂️
So the boys have had their last shear of the year! They were definitely ready for it.
Valais sheep are sheared twice a year as their fleece grows so thick.

So they won't be looking their cutest for the next few weeks until it starts to grow back but at least they will be comfortable 🙂

They have coats to wear now to keep them toasty 🥰

It's amazing how animal therapy can help some people, I don't always get time to update my page as much as I would like to but I need to share this story with you all.

A couple of weeks ago we visited a care home, at the end of the visit we took the goats in to see a lady who was unable to get out of bed. She sadly had suffered a stroke and the only word she can say now is 'No'.

Her face lit up as soon as she saw our goat Reggie, he let her stroke him and even lay next to her in bed. She was saying no repeatedly but with a huge smile on her face and we were assured that even though she is saying no she doesn't actually mean no it is just all she can say. Then, as if by magic the lady said Yes! This was the first time the carers had heard her say another word in a very long time.
Everyone was stunned and it was a very proud moment for us all in the room.

Some animals are put on this earth to help humans, and Reggie is one of them 🥰

I will try to find time to update my page more with special moments like these because they need to be shared, animals are angels 😇
