I have just heard the sad news that Herbie died after an emergency colic operation.
Anyone who saw a BridleRides brochure would have seen a picture of Herbie, a grey Dales pony.
He carried his rider Bobbie over many miles, probably thousands, researching bridlepaths all over the country - from Yorkshire, Derbyshire, Lincolnshire, Bedfordshire, the Cotswolds, South Downs, Exmoor and Wales. If you went on a BridleRides holiday you followed Herbie's hoofprints. He and Bobby stayed in every B & B as well, so they had to come up to his standards too.
In his spare time Herbie was good at dressage. He won the local riding club dressage championship and he had been competing at Novice standard for some time.
He was very much loved, and had a perfect home with Bobbie.
RIP Herbie.
