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...

Breaking Ice!!!
With the sudden freezing temperature we are seeing frozen water troughs, this includes the troughs on the Downs such as Roborough, Clearbrook, Long Ash etc. Our welfare assistant has been breaking the ice covering Robourogh Downs trough and we are urging anyone who see's a frozen trough to smash the ice so the ponies and other animals can get a drink. For many this is their only water source so it's life saving work and only takes a matter of seconds.
