what a pony ! i really feel for you as i had a horse who went the same way, not a very nice thing ! she was very similar , not very trustworthy of humans, neglected and very thin before i found her, i had her for 5 years , she finally gained weight and lived a great life with 3 other friends.
BJ you sound like a beautiful boy. I lost a boy just like you once so I know how your Mum Brittany feels. I know that you will be running through paddocks high in the sweetest grass, along beautiful sandy beaches and will never have to encounter cruel humans again. If you see my boy Jasper at any time give him a big lick from his Mum
