Toby, Bay Thoroughbred gelding

Here is Toby’s story, in the words of his mom Laura.

“Lovely horse, how much was he?” “Absolutely nothing.”

The only thing I know about my beloved boy is he’s had a rough life. Started off, as many Thoroughbreds, with a career in racing – not as glamorous as it might sound! With many injuries (mostly in and around his mouth) and quite a bit of attitude, he was no one’s dream horse and was left to rot in a paddock. Along came a woman with a heart of gold and took poor starved Toby into her care, all the while looking for a person to give Toby a home. It started off as a 6 month lease, slowly building up a relationship and bond – I fell in love immediately! (despite his “why should I?” attitude). The 6 month lease quickly came to an end, with me begging to renew it. Instead of renewing the lease, 3 weeks before my birthday, the ownership of Toby was signed over to me.

Now, my loyal friend and soul mate; you will never have to experience hardship again, and will spend the rest of your days with me right by your side.
