Chester is a stunning silver dun registered Shetland gelding, 87cm.
Broken last year and has had tots on him walking and trotting. He has been on holiday since December so would need to be bought back into work slowly.
He has a lovely temperament and loves to be brushed and fussed over.
He is good to clip, catch, and load and travels perfectly.
Chester has been to a few shows with us in-hand and has always behaved well, including the Suffolk County Show where he took this all in his stride.
We would love him to find a family home where he would get lots of attention and fun, and continue on with his education.
Chester currently comes in at night out during the day, he will turnout alone or with friends mares or geldings he is very friendly.
He is bare foot and has them trimmed around every 10 weeks his feet don’t grow very fast.

Meet Josh, a gorgeous little chap who is looking for his new home as a non-ridden companion. Josh would suit am experienced home with other shetlands that require similar grazing management.
Josh came into our care with very little handling experience. Our team are now gaining trust from him and he is progressing really well in his general handling. Due to this Josh requires a home where his new borrower will continue his training, making him very rewarding to work with.
Josh is currently living out 24/7 in a mixed gelding herd. He is good to enter the field with and is a friendly and curious little guy. Once he trusts you he will be your new best friend.
Can you offer Josh a loving home?

Colour - Shetland Ponies may be any colour known in horses except spotted
Coat - The coat changes according to the seasons of the year; a double coat in winter with guard hairs which shed rain and keep the pony’s skin completely dry in the worst weather.

At all times the mane and tail hair should be long straight and profuse and the feathering of the fetlocks straight and silky
Head - The head should be small, carried well and in proportion. Ears should be small and erect, wide set but pointing well forward. Forehead should be broad wtih bold, dark, intelligent eyes. Blue eyes are not acceptable. Muzzle must be broad with nostrils wide open. Teeth and jaw must be correct
Hind Legs - The thighs should be strong and muscular with well shaped, strong hocks, neither hooky nor too straight. When viewed from behind, the hindlegs should not be set too widely apart, nor should the hocks be turned in
Fore Legs - Should be well placed with sufficient good, flat bone. Strong forearm. Short, balanced cannon bone. Springy pasterns
Feet - Tough, round and well shaped - not short, narrow, contracted or thin
Action - Straight, free action using every joint and tracking-up well
