Turka

Turks was brought to us from a home in Javea (Xàbia), Alicante, where they were having terrible problems with her behaviour. It turned out that poor Turka has a badly shaped spine and this was causing her terrible pain when she was saddled and trying to take a rider. Hence her ‘bad’ behaviour!

Once with us she underwent therapeutic exercises and other work to help make her more comfortable, help change her posture, and strengthen her weaker muscles. These days she is loving living outside in her paddock, where she can enjoy lots of freedom of movement, and can play with all her horsey companions.

We will continue with her treatment, using chiropractic work to help her position and see what the future holds for her. She is a lovely girl, enjoys a bit of mischief (as so many of our four-legged friends seem to!) and even if she can’t be ridden, Turka will hopefully find her forever home with a loving family, as a companion horse.

If you think Turka would fit into your family, get in touch! Otherwise, you could sponsor her.
