SHETLAND PAIR

Iz and Poppy are a bonded pair of Shetland mares, seeking a home as the only pair of shetlands in the home!

They are good to handle in all ways and seek a quiet lease of life with a loving family. Iz provides a little more comfort to Poppy who is the more timid of the two.

Due to their breed and size they require good fencing and someone that can manage their grazing requirements.


Blue Cross Dorris


Ref #: 422380
  • Companion horse
  • Sweet natured
  • Lives out 24/7, but could be stabled
£180
  • Thoroughbred
  • Bay
  • Mare
  • 21 years
  • 16hh / 163cm
  • Companion horse
  • Sweet natured
  • Lives out 24/7, but could be stabled

Dorris is a lovely mare looking for a home as a companion after coming into our care due to her owner's change in circumstances. She is a sweet-natured mare who gets on well with other horses and is happy to share a hay pile with her field companions.

Dorris is currently living out 24/7 with another mare, but could be introduced to geldings or stabling in her new home. Once she has settled into her new environment, she is good to handle and enjoys human interaction. She is very easy to catch, happily accepts her headcollar, stands well for all four feet to be picked out, and enjoys being groomed while tied up with a hay net. Dorris can be a little forward when being led in new surroundings, so she would be best suited to a handler who is confident around larger horses. She is very good for both the vet and farrier, does not require overly restricted grazing, and would make a fantastic companion for other horses looking for a kind and settled field friend.

  • Straight forward to handle, needs reassurance

  • Thoroughbred
  • Chestnut
  • Mare
  • 15 years
  • 15.2hh / 158cm
  • Companion horse
  • Enjoys attention!
  • Straight forward to handle, needs reassurance

Kitty is a beautiful 15-year-old, 15.2hh chestnut Thoroughbred mare looking for a loving new home as a non-ridden companion.

Kitty is a lovely mare who enjoys attention and would make a wonderful addition to a home looking for a larger companion. She is easy to catch, enjoys being groomed and is generally straightforward for everyday handling, including the farrier and vet. She would benefit from a calm, confident handler who can offer reassurance and consistency.

Kitty is currently living out 24/7 with other mares and has previously lived happily alongside geldings. She enjoys having equine friends around her and would suit a home offering plenty of companionship. She is equally happy living out or enjoying a more pampered routine with some time in the stable.

This gorgeous girl would love a home where she can enjoy her retirement, plenty of grazing and all the fuss and attention she deserves. With a settled routine and a caring owner, Kitty has lots to offer as a much-loved companion.

  • Mare
  • 8 years
  • 15.3hh / 161cm
  • Companion horse
  • Easy to handle
  • Affectionate, straight forward

Tea is a sweet 15.3hh, 8-year-old Thoroughbred mare who originally came into Blue Cross care following a private owner relinquishment. Tea is now looking for a non-ridden companion home where she can enjoy a happy, settled life.

Tea is a lovely mare to handle and enjoys spending time with people. She is good to catch, lead, groom and have her feet picked out, and has been well behaved for both the vet and farrier. She currently lives happily within a mixed herd and gets along well with everybody, and once settled she may be able to stay alone for short periods.

Tea's ideal home will be one looking for an affectionate, straightforward companion to join their existing horse or herd.


Beautiful grey 2yo Thoroughbred filly


Ref #: 420130
  • Eligible for ROR
  • Backed, has been in training and now rested
  • Potential fun all-rounder
£3,000
  • Thoroughbred
  • Grey
  • Filly
  • 2 years
  • Eligible for ROR
  • Backed, has been in training and now rested
  • Potential fun all-rounder

Harrie is a beautiful grey 2yo Thoroughbred filly, around 15.1hh, still maturing.

Harrie was backed, put into training and is now currently maturing. Living in a herd of mares. She's good for the farrier and she loads / travels well. We've known this filly from birth.

She was retired from racing as she needs more time to mature. She would thrive in a 1-1 home experience with ex racehorses, Thoroughbreds and sharp youngsters. She is sharp and will do well with an owner that she can continue to gain confidence from when she has had time to mature. Up to date with vaccinations and dentist.

She is eligible for some ROR classes as she has been in training in the UK. She will be sold with a non racing disclosure.

Photos from last autumn, I will get some more up to date photographs and videos this week


Sweet TB mare


Ref #: 419729
  • Would make a great hack, low level RC or companion
  • Really sweet and loves attention
£1,200
  • Thoroughbred
  • Bay
  • Mare
  • 5 years
  • 16.2hh / 168cm
  • Would make a great hack, low level RC or companion
  • Really sweet and loves attention

Sweet, very pretty, 5 year old 16.3 ex race horse mare who would be suitable for low level riding club and hacking or a companion.

Raced a couple of times but was too slow. Last raced in February 2025.

Bought as a project which I have never really had time for but she has enjoyed living out with my other horses (stabled at night in the winter). She schools nicely on the flat and isn’t silly, and isn’t silly after not being ridden for a while.

She is really sweet and loves attention, always comes over to say hello in the field. Good with other horses (and dogs). Currently unshod. Good with the farrier and the vet. Doesn’t enjoy standing on the yard for too long.

Not a novice ride as she is a young ex race horse who needs further education.

She does have a mild club foot which may affect how level she is (could be improved with shoes) and why I’d say she’s only suitable for low level riding club and hacking. She’s also make a great companion as she’s great with other horses and loves attention
