S2E5: We love Cobs!

November 04, 2022 • Redwings Horse Sanctuary • Season 2 • Episode 5

This episode we are celebrating everything we love about Cobs!

Redwings is home to many cobs and cob crosses, and we love everything about them - from their fluffy feathers, piebald patches and all the hair, everywhere!

Hear from new arrivals Pickle and Carey (and their Shetland pal Mariah) and their new herd of cob friends - who were very keen to star on the podcast!

Plus, we visit Turpins Lodge Riding School, which is now home to five rehomed Redwings cobs, and join Campaigns Manager Andie at Appleby Horse Fair handing out the Best at Appleby awards, rewarding happy, healthy horses at the fair.

And last but definitely not least, we introduce you to Sanctuary Star Audrey and hear from two keen cob fans as to why she is so special to us here at Redwings.
