A Little Quiz

The little blue girl, Scarlets Choice found herself being picked up as a stray and ending up in the stray kennel at Penistone just over a couple of weeks ago. She was very popular on Facebook, 567 shares and not 1 offer of help except from me. Fortunately for her I had some good friends who were on the lookout for a new girl. Their last beautiful greyhound girl lived until she was 15 years and 1 month…

She hadn’t been spayed and she was done prior to rehoming. Here she is a few days later….what a lucky girl you are.

The trainer? Low Life Serial Offender….K Bowman…Doncaster Greyhound Stadium.

Who would have thought that when we “acquired” these ponies in 2018 that this would happen. We found out that one had already died and someone local was feeding these little ones. When we went to get them they were so weak that we literally picked them up out of this hell hole, we didn’t know if they would ever make it. Fortunately they were all unwanted, abandoned colts so no one came looking for them. Here is Athos and a write up from his proud owners.

Hi Deb,
It’s been over three years since Athos came into our lives, and what a time that has been! He certainly is the cheeky chappy you described in your Facebook post back in 2019.
Athos has gone from strength to strength, competing at our local riding show in North Wales, Lloc and District, placing 4th at STARS last year in the ridden coloured pony and then this year……. Athos won his in-hand class out of 45 stunning ponies!! He then went into the evening Supreme performance and only went and won overall in-hand Supreme!
I cannot thank you enough for allowing Athos into our lives. He and Mia have a fantastic bond; he has helped her in many ways this past year. He is such a lovely, honest pony.
I’ve attached some pictures from the weekend.
Take care,
Leona and Mia
A Fabulous Opportunity

A Fabulous Opportunity

We have had absolutely no joy in recruiting locally for someone to come and work with the horses. So we are casting the net further afield.  As you know the welfare of all our animals is paramount and we need the right person/people to come and join our small, but fabulous team.

We are looking for either one person or a working couple to come and live and work here at the farm. It will include all general horse/yard and maintenance duties. The list is extensive.  The bonus is you will get to live in an amazing part of the world and accommodation will be provided.

So if you are wanting to come and join us please give me a call.

Salary will depend on experience.

Own transport, love of horses and experience with horses are essential.

A Tia Update

A Tia Update

We have had to make some changes over the past six months and probably will have to make more in the future. We are managing to survive, just. One of the main things is that we have no mortgage and the animals are safe, the new interest hikes would have finished us off without a doubt.

We would like to welcome Judi, who is doing the sponsorship scheme for us on a voluntary basis and is doing a brilliant job.  Judi is situated in Derbyshire. (Not Local either?)

We would also like to welcome Alex, he is our first fundraising manager and is also doing a brilliant job. You will see lots of new things appearing soon. If you do want to do any of your own events please get in touch with him and I’m sure he will help in any way he can. Alex is situated in Clitheroe. (Not local either?)

We still have Christy , thank god, who is situated in Leeds, but spends a lot of time up here..(so is she double local?)

And we have had a change in Trustees. Big welcome to Anita  who was originally a Trustee and made me register as a Charity, she actually dragged me into a solicitor’s office to do the Trust Deed.

Big Welcome to Aileen and Trudy, who you will know from the great work they do with Greytexploitations.

Alex  : alex@tia-rescue.org

Christy : ( all general enquiries)  info@tia-rescue.org

Deb :    deb@tia-rescue.org  & rehoming@tia-rescue.org

Thank you from everyone at Tia…..where ever we are situated.
