About Big Red

Need a handsome ginger on your life!?! I'm Big Red - the ginger you've been waiting for!! I came to the RSPCA with my paddock mate Gidget- we were both really skinny - the RSPCA have done a wonderful job at fattening me up and I'm looking and feeling much better. I am an ex- racehorse, so the RSPCA knows that I am broken to saddle, but no one here has ridden me, so they won't be able to tell you how I am under saddle. What I can say is that I am good to catch, have feet done, brush, wash and go onto a float. I love running around the paddock like a crazy child after a bath. I am up to date with my vaccinations, worming, feet trimming and dental care. Whilst I have put on a lot of condition I am still being fed a hard feed so my new owner will need to keep up with that.

Adoption Price $1000
