REHOMING

Steps to Rehoming from The Horse Trust:

If you are interested in offering a home to one of our horses (please note ‘horse’ is used to include horses, ponies and donkeys) listed on this page, click on the horse to learn more about them and complete the short contact form available at the bottom of this page.

Your form will be assessed and if you might be able to offer a suitable home, you will be contacted and asked to enter into our Assessment Process.  We will provide you at that stage with full details of the Assessment Process and copies of all the relevant documents.

You will be asked to complete a full Application Form and provided with a copy of our Assessment Agreement to consider.  You will also be asked to provide specific consent to our processing special categories of personal data about you as part of our Assessment Process if you choose to proceed.

You will then be invited to meet the horse at The Horse Trust to see if you click and to demonstrate your ability with horses.

One of our team will carry out a home check where you intend to keep the horse. This is simply to check the site is suitable to meet the needs of the horse.

Our Veterinary Director can provide you with the relevant medical history of the horse and will ensure vaccinations and routine procedures are up to date before you take your horse home.

If you agree to take the horse on loan, you will be required to sign a Rehoming Agreement with us. You will also be asked to provide consent to us processing any special categories of data about you so we can monitor and support the rehoming.  Provided you are happy to do so and that paperwork is completed, you can then take your horse home.

We carry out routine home checks on all our rehomed horses and offer advice and support by telephone for all our loanees.

Below are some of the horses & ponies we have upcoming for rehoming....
Dobby
13.2hh
4 years old
Companion
Gelding

Dobby is a 3.5 year old, 13.2hh bay gelding who is looking for a companion home. Dobby arrived at The Horse Trust in 2021 after being found abandoned and in very poor condition. He is now in good health and looking for a family of his own to love him.

Dobby has undertaken basic handling training with our Knowledge & Skills team and is now comfortable with routine interventions, such as vaccinations, farrier visits, spending time in a stable and being groomed. He is an extremely loving and affectionate boy, he enjoys spending time around people and loves getting scratches and kisses! He loves going on adventures too and has been out and about on in hand walks with our other ponies in training to explore local routes.

Dobby would be best suited to a home that has horses who enjoy playing with others and that he can interact with in the field. He has lived out with mares and geldings of various sizes and gets along with everyone.

If you would like to give Dobby a loving home to grow into a beautiful, mature pony, fill out the application below and we will be in touch!

An example of this would be if you asked us to retain your details "on file" for a specific period to enable you to be considered for the rehoming of other horses.

If we do rehome a horse with you, we will ask you for your consent again to use this data as required for the purposes of the rehoming as will be explained to you at that time.

We therefore ask you to tick the appropriate box before submitting this form to confirm that you consent to our processing data relating to your health and any disability affecting you by:

1. gathering and storing that data for the period for which we are considering your application to receive a horse on rehoming from us;

2. our relevant personnel considering that data when making any assessment as to your suitability for receiving a horse for rehoming as part of the Assessment Process summarised on our website which you have read before completing this form;

3. using that data to request any further consent from you to process that data which we may make at the conclusion of the assessment process; and

1. to conduct the Assessment Process summarised on our website which you have read before completing this form;

2. to make our assessment of your suitability to receive a horse for rehoming from us by way of that Assessment Process; and

3. to communicate with you in relation to that Assessment Process and/or at its conclusion.
You are not in any way obliged to give us this information or to give your consent to our processing it. However, we have to ask you for that consent so we can we receive that information and process it as outlined above. If we cannot do that, we cannot make a proper assessment of your suitability to receive a horse for rehoming, and we cannot therefore proceed any further in the Assessment Process.

If you do give us your consent to process this data, you can withdraw your consent at any time by writing to us at [ ]@horsetrust.org.uk or at The Home of Rest for Horses, Slad Lane, Princes Risborough, Buckinghamshire, HP27 0PP.
