    From rescue centre foal to stunning event horse: Dippy is flying the flag for rescue horses everywhere with rehomer Stella! Dippy was born at our Hall Farm Rescue and Rehoming Centre after his mother was rescued from neglect.
    A striking grey Thoroughbred, Dippy was first rehomed as a youngster to his groom who backed him when he was old enough and introduced him to eventing.
    Stella then rehomed Dippy at the end of 2018 and the pair have gone from strength to strength ever since, flying up the levels in their first season eventing together and showing just what rescue horses can do.

    What’s surprising to me is how people DON’T see the potential in rehomed horses. I’ve been volunteering with a friend who rehabilitates and rehomes a LOT of horses, and a lot of them are just super wonderful! They go on to do eventing just fine. I’m sure in the right hands, many horses needing new homes could be very successful in the show ring. 😊

      Gray horses (at least as far as I understand) do that: they can start out not looking gray at all, but get lighter with age! (in fact, most ‘white’ horses you see are actually grays that have lightened over the course of their lives)!

      There is also an international rider (showjumping) that broke through with a horse that was supposed to be slaughtered and got rescued on the last moment. I don't remember his name but there is no such thing as a limit with these animals... stories like these prove that.

    Is it just me that finds it weird that dark bay foals turn into greys
    , and grey foals turn into black horses
    Just me????

    • @William_Porter

    • @georgannewood6541
      @georgannewood6541 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      Actually, any color foal can turn grey if It carries the grey gene, (which is dominant). I’ve had black, bay and chestnut foals all go grey as long as at least one parent was grey. It’s fascinating to study the genetics of color in horses...

      I don't know what it is like for white horses from other breeds, but all Lippizaner are born black. They turn white as they mature (this can take several years). So this is not unheard of.

    • @undeniablyemma
      @undeniablyemma 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      gray horses actually begin as bays, which is that dark brown that he started out as! they begin to change color as they grow older. foals that were born a solid grey typically will turn black over time. horses are quite weird with their colorings.
