Huluk has only joined us here at MindBUZZler, Aytounhill in January 2011 after his owner died back in December 2010. So, we cannot take any credit for Huluk having gotten as old as he is today, but it is all down to Daphne’s tender loving care and possible huge amounts of pony nuts in all those horsey years. Fortunately, our Justus (who is ONLY 30) and Huluk had met earlier in life so changing home after thirty odd years has been a little less of a shock due to meeting his old friend Justus again.

Huluk is totally sound, very cheerful, but has lost all his teeth, so he gets a special diet, which Daphne worked out over the years. Daphne also created almost academic instructions as to how his feed has to be assembled. I took roughly 3 days to understand them properly and received some practical insights from Daphne’s daughter alongside with it.
