Davidstow Rescue Mare Gives Birth at SWEP Sanctuary


The first of the Davidstow rescue mares has given birth to a gorgeous filly foal. Staff arrived at the fields to find the little bundle wobbling along with mum, she was still damp so not long born. We are expecting at least two more foals from the Davidstow group and three more from other ponies rescued after the Dartmoor drifts late last year. We will keep you all upto date on their progress and any new births.

Four members of our staff are taking part in a sponsered skydive to raise funds, any sponsership money will go towards feed for all our mums to be and new mums, the Davidstow ponies came in emaciated so will need more care and extra feed than most new mums to ensure they can provide enough milk for their foals.
