South West Equine Protection is a registered charity based on Dartmoor. We respond to wild pony emergency callouts on Dartmoor and Bodmin moors. Donations from the public enable us to respond to callouts and get veterinary help for ponies in distress. All the "wild" ponies on the moors are owned, but sadly many owners try to avoid their duty of care...

Pony showing signs of colic - Yelverton Golf Course
A member of the public came to the SWEP yard to report an iron grey mare who was down and showing signs of colic near Yelverton golf course. A member of staff went to assess the situation and on arrival the mare was standing and eating, but was not in a rush to join the herd. The Dartmoor Livestock Protection Officer was informed and was asked for assistance to find the ponies owner.
