The last of the pregnant horses in the “Dover 26” has a new baby, a new name and a new future.
There were five pregnant mares in the group of 26 who were found on a lorry that was stopped. Some did not have the right paperwork and many had health issues that meant they were unfit to travel.
The last one to give birth was a piebald mare who had no microchip when she was rescued. She has been named Ada and her foal Cole, after World Horse Welfare’s founder, as the charity launches a pledge to #StopHorseSmuggling.
