The ultimate first pony, leid rein and first ridden schoolmaster. Been there done it, got the t-shirt and the matching hoodie!

This saintly little pony has been sadly outgrown and is for sale on behalf of his owners, who are heart broken to part with him, however he has so much to offer another little child and do his wonderful little job all over again.

Has done an abundance of pony club ( all activities), been to camps, local shows from showing classes, to side saddle to mini jumping and cross country. He loves the beach and is safe as houses in all traffic and open spaces.

Batman is rock steady and a baby sitter on 4 legs, confidence builder. He has the cutest little canter which is easy for a child to learn to sit too, very comfy and balanced.

His faultless CV is too long to mention in one advert, brilliant to handle, farrier, box, catch, clip and load.

No vices or blemishes

This is such a sad sale of our gorgeous girl who has been part of our family for the past 5 years. She has given my children the very best start, but sadly my daughter has now outgrown her and it’s time for another little rider to enjoy her.

The kindest, most genuine pony you could wish for

Done it all – Pony Club rallies, local shows, Champion and Reserve Champion for best turned out and LR at Sunshine Tour

Loves hacking – happy in woods or on the road

Perfect children’s friend – will happily stand for hours to be groomed and fussed over

Brilliant on and off the lead rein, loves a little jump too

She is an absolute treasure and has been totally trusted with my girls – the sort you can pop a child on and know they’ll be safe and happy. She really deserves the most loving new home.

We have lots of photos and videos we can share. Home is absolutely the priority for this special pony.

Meet Dublin aka Dubs, he is a Kerry Bog Pony… We had never heard of this breed when we were buying, but google it…

He is a 11hh Strawberry Roan aged 16.

Dubs has been with ourselves for three years and my daughter is now fully out grown him and ready for the next step onto her next pony. He has been used for lead rein but he is forward enough and responsive enough to do both lead rein and 1.5 pony when the time is ready for little one to be let of the lead.

Dubs is a regular at our local Pony Club where we have done weekly rallies, mounted games, dressage, musical dressage, pony club camp, poles on the floor and 30cm cross poles. Plenty of pictures can be shared of him in attendance. Dubs’ strength is mounted games where he stops at the poles for the cups, perfectly stands at the bucket to drop the sock etc.

Dubs’ lives on a working farm and is used to dogs, cats, chickens, sheep and cattle. He is great with farm machinery and used to the tractor coming right up to his stable gate.

Dubs loves to hack, and he is a fantastic to hack and is safe with all aspects of traffic, his previous home to us was a heavy haulage yard. We regularly cross a 4 lane by pass to get to the local park, he goes around the roundabout (via footpath) to the local ice cream shop and stands like a lamb whilst the traffic goes by.

He loves to be pampered, fussed, groomed, he will stand like a dream to be clipped and platted. He will pop his head on your shoulders for kisses on his muzzle. He will have his feet picked out by my daughter with no problems. He has good stable manners and will listen my daughter to tell him get back for his food.

Dubs is excellent to catch, farrier- he is barefooted, vet, dentist, tack up, loaded by my daughter. He will be tied up on the side of the trailer eating a haynet whilst at shows/camps he isn’t silly and you can leave him whilst you and get sorted/sign in/get your child ready etc.

Dubs is has never been ill with us and has no sign of laminitis whilst with us, he is on stripped grazing on rich dairy grass, during the summer he is out at night and in during the day, during the winter, he goes out when he can as our land gets rather wet he stands on our yard with a net. He is a good doer and lives off hay and a balancer during the winter months.

Until he is sold Dubs will be in regular work with our local pony club, winter league mounted games session and will also continue his hacks around our village.

As a mum myself I want to know the pony’s quirks before hand as I don’t want to be wasting your time coming to see a pony who wont fit into your life.

Dubs’ Quirks

Dubs requires a standing martingale as he does moves his head up and down, once this on it does reduce. He increases his head movement when he is standing waiting his turn for a rally or mounted games wanting to go next- think of a chid asking ‘Mum Mum’ for attention. I have managed this with a little reminder to keep his space from the leader.

Dubs will also whizz out of an electric fence if it’s not on, or if there are less than two strips of tape on the post- my electric skills aren’t the best, but if hears the clicks he doesn’t escape.

Once the trailer has stopped moving Dubs can be a but stompy in the trailer- again showing his attention seeking side, he has never caused any damage to the trailer and loads of very easily by my daughter.

Dubs is a little pony with buckets of scope and talent to go far at shows, pony clubs and pony adventures. Once he has plats in he points his toes like a ballerina.

Only serious buyers to be in contact, Dubs will come with all his wardrobe including saddle, bridle with made to measure hooped reins, made to measure standing martingale and a few rugs.
