Twiggy, Jerry, Hamish and Leo

New owner Tamsin Conyers, Twiggy with groom Claire Houghton, Jerry with groom Sam Harvey, and Hamish with groom Madeleine Schroetke.
Rescued Amersham horses Twiggy - a Friesian mare, Jerry - a chestnut Welsh Section A, and bay cob Hamish are happy and settled in their new home with Tamsin Conyers at her stables in Norfolk.
Tamsin said:
"They're all such lovely ponies. They're not scared of people and have been superstars.
"Twiggy is a big baby and loves to have cuddles. She's a very pretty little horse and I think dressage will definitely be for her.
"Hamish looks amazing trotting around and he loves to go out hacking – he'll take the lead wherever he goes.
"And Jerry knows he's a bit special. He trots and canters with his little feet flicking, so he's definitely got a career in the show ring.
"I'd definitely adopt more horses from the RSPCA. It's nice to deal with the hairy cobs as well as the competition horses – we've had fun with these three and hope to get a few more!"
True to her word, Tamsin adopted another Amersham pony through the RSPCA - a coloured cob called Leo - who has also settled in well.
