Shetland pony Dolly was rescued from a life of laminitis and neglect in May 2016, aged around 7. All 4 feet were horrendously overgrown and infected, and she could barely walk. As a result, her body was twisted and deformed.

Dolly came to The Laminitis Site, and with x-rays, frequent trimming, medical treatment and physical therapy, Dolly has made good progress and now has a good quality of life.

The permanent damage Dolly has suffered to her feet and body means that she will stay at The Laminitis Site to receive the specialist treatment she needs.

Dolly relies on generous donations to provide her with low sugar feed and hay, soft bedding, joint supplements, medication, x-rays, hoof trimming, hoof boots and blood tests. Every donation, no matter how small, is gratefully received and helps us to keep this gorgeous pony who had such a bad start in life as healthy and happy as possible.
