- Based at a foster yard in Buckinghamshire -

Meet Stitch, a sweet-natured cob who is looking for a kind, experienced home where he can continue to grow in confidence and enjoy life as a companion pony. Having come into our care from a private owner, Stitch is now settling into a new routine and currently lives out happily 24/7 with other geldings, where he enjoys the reassurance of herd life.

Stitch is a gentle pony who enjoys building connections with people and thrives with calm, patient handling. While he can initially feel unsure in unfamiliar situations, he is making lovely progress and is becoming more confident with everyday interaction and handling. Once he feels comfortable, Stitch shows a kind and affectionate side and enjoys spending time with those he trusts.

He is continuing to build confidence with new experiences, including routine care such as vet and farrier visits, and responds well to positive reinforcement and steady guidance. Stitch benefits from consistency, reassurance, and handlers who are happy to work at his pace and celebrate the small wins along the way.

Stitch would thrive in a quiet, understanding home with experienced and confident carers who can offer him a relaxed, routine-based lifestyle with plenty of turnout and equine companionship. With time, patience, and kindness, Stitch has all the potential to become a deeply rewarding companion and form a wonderful bond with his future home.

  • Future children's project pony
  • Lives with mares & geldings
  • Rewarding to train

- Based at a foster yard in Leicestershire -

Sally is a charming young cob mare with a bright future ahead of her. She is still very much learning about the world, but she is already showing a kind and willing nature. Currently living out in a herd of both mares and geldings, she is used to a social environment and enjoys the company of other horses. Sally has recently begun learning to spend more time in a stable, and while she can be a little unsure at times, she is gradually settling into new routines.

In her handling, Sally is proving to be a sweet and genuine youngster. She is good to catch and will happily let you approach and put on her headcollar. She enjoys being groomed and handled, though like many young horses, she can fidget slightly and is still working on her balance, especially when picking up her feet. She is at the early stages of her education, so she will benefit from a patient and consistent handler who can continue building her confidence and basic groundwork skills.

Sally would make a lovely unbacked project for someone looking to bring on a young pony and develop a strong bond from the start. Due to her age and level of training, she will need an experienced home that can guide her through her next stages of learning. With time, patience, and the right support, Sally has all the potential to grow into a well-rounded and rewarding pony.

Blue Cross Cheerio


Ref #: 408381
  • Future project pony
  • Lives out 24/7 or can part stable
  • Excellent companion to other youngsters
£600
  • Cob
  • Dark bay
  • Mare
  • 2 years
  • 13.2 hands
  • Future project pony
  • Lives out 24/7 or can part stable
  • Excellent companion to other youngsters
- Based at our Burford centre -

Cheerio is searching for a knowledgeable, compassionate home that can see her potential and is excited to help her grow into it. With her rescue history, she will need someone who understands the importance of taking things slowly, building trust, and giving her the steady foundations she may not have previously had. A calm, consistent environment where she can feel safe and understood will allow her confidence to continue to blossom.

She is a lovely future project for someone experienced and patient, with the skills to produce a young horse thoughtfully and correctly. She has the potential to mature to approximately 14.2hh, making her a versatile prospect for a range of disciplines in the future. For now, her focus should be on groundwork, handling, and positive early education to ensure she develops into a well-balanced and willing partner.

Cheerio will benefit from ongoing, kind training that prioritises correct basics - leading, standing, vet and farrier visits, loading, and gradually introducing new experiences in a positive way. As she progresses, she may go on to be ridden, but she will need someone committed to setting her up properly from the start. With time, patience, and thoughtful education, Cheerio has every chance to mature into a rewarding and capable companion for the right person.

Blue Cross Panda


Ref #: 408380
  • Excellent companion to other horses
  • Lives out 24/7 or can part stable
  • Laid back temperament
£180
  • Cob
  • Piebald
  • Mare
  • 9 years
  • 13 hands
  • Excellent companion to other horses
  • Lives out 24/7 or can part stable
  • Laid back temperament
- Based at a foster yard in Bedfordshire -

Panda is a gentle soul who is looking for a special home with someone who understands that not every horse finds the world easy straight away. She has had a difficult start in life and, because of this, needs a calm, patient and sympathetic environment where she can feel safe and unhurried.

Beneath her worries is a sweet, sensitive mare who wants to trust. Panda does best with quiet routines, kind handling, and people who are happy to let her build confidence at her own pace. When given time and reassurance, she shows her softer side and begins to relax into her surroundings.

Panda would suit a peaceful home with steady equine companions and an adopter who values kindness over quick progress. She is not looking for pressure or expectations – just security, consistency, and someone who will see her for who she is and help her continue to feel safe.

If you have a gentle heart, a quiet setup, and the patience to let a horse learn that life can be kind, Panda could be incredibly rewarding. Offering her a home would truly change her world.

  • Would make a perfect second pony.
  • Great temprament
Sean is a much-loved and versatile pony who has done a bit of everything, including dressage, showjumping, cross country, fun rides, and stay-aways.

He is a forward-going ride, so would not suit a complete novice, but he is genuine and does not buck, bolt, or rear.

On the ground, Sean has a very laid-back temperament. He is happy to stand without being tied and is well-mannered for the farrier, dentist, and physio. He is also easy to load and travel.

I have owned Sean for 10 years, and this is a very sad sale due to work commitments, meaning I can no longer give him the time he needs.

He has previously had mild seasonal allergies during the spring/summer months, which are easily managed.

A genuine, kind pony looking for his next loving home.

*Unexpectedly back on the market due to change in buyers circumstances*

Sad sale of our much loved Poppy who we've owned for over a year and is now sadly outgrown. Green passport with full breeding.

During this time we've been active PC members attending many rallies and taking part in hacking, dressage, pony camp, events, shows, fun rides and natural horsemanship.

At her previous home of 4 years she also did a wide variety of activities as a first pony for a very confident child including SJ and games.

Poppy is fantastic on the ground and children can easily handle her, tack her up and load.

She's loves her work, with plenty of scope to give a confident child lots of fun and experience. We haven't hunted her or done XC off lead but am sure she would be brilliant at it too.

Poppy is safe and has never bucked, bitten, barged, bronked, reared, span, bolted or anything nasty
Snaffle mouthed with excellent brakes
Hacks alone and in company
Travels well can be loaded by children
Easy to do in all ways
Doesn't fizz up if not ridden in a while
Never had lami, sweet itch
Up to date with everything

She has been a first pony for us but is a forward-going responsive ride and thrives with an established rider. Would suit a child or small teen looking to have fun, progress, and enjoy all round activities.

Poppy comes with fitted Thorowgood saddle, bridle, rugs and accessories, all ready for a child to go out and have fun!

5 star Homes will be vetted. References for Poppy can be provided from qualified PC professionals.

THE ULTIMATE PONY CLUB/BS /MOUNTED GAMES PONY
Oreo AKA spot
Registered with the dartmoor pony society
12.3hh
6 year old
Ride & drive
Spotted gelding

Spot is the most lovable little chap loves to be groomed, fussed and enjoys lots of kisses

His schooling could do with a little work but we haven’t pushed this with him as he is destined to do bigger and better things than going round in circles in a school.

Open spaces he is 100% doesn’t get hot or silly just a solid fun little pony with a soft mouth and good breaks.

He also hacks alone or in company not the spooky sort could go on a long relaxing hack without having to worry.

Jumping is where spots talents lie he would jump the moon for you ready to get out and about this summer he would definitely be bringing home those red ribbons and unstoppable against the clock.

Currently turned out in a herd he can stick up for himself and has had no problem in making lots of friends would also be fine in an individual paddock.

No novice or nervous riders need apply he is very sensitive to the leg and very forward going. I’m looking for a confident, well balanced child/small adult with soft hands. He would be great for pony club, BS, mounted games, pleasure rides, hacking, driving, or just a general allrounder.

Spot is a very special pony who we have all really bonded with he deserves the best of homes so no dealers or time wasters. Available now before we enroll him in pony club and get him on the bs circuit if he doesn’t sell his price will be increased

Do you have a pony that’s due to retire, you might consider leasing for a year or two? Or you have an older pony that’s outgrown or due to be outgrown you want to sell?

Looking for WH or SHP
/ PC pony /all rounder
pony for a long term family home with other ponies.

A pony that can step up or step down according to rider. Confidence giver-gelding only.

No vices.
(absolutely no spooking bucking/bolting etc ) No health issues, easy to do in all ways on the ground
( the children love leading them to the field etc so they do all their care ) Laid back and easy to take out and about to competitions, hunting and rallies.

Currently jumping 50cm and looking to progress. Capable of jumping 70cm with ease . Nothing that is whizzy or super fast, spooky going around a course. Ideally a steady rocking- horse canter , easy off the leg.
Super Chilled and not alter out and about or in open spaces with others. The rider has lost confidence so needs to get this from the pony when jumping.

A pony that can fit in with a busy lifestyle and family life. They will be pampered and a 5* private family home on our farm with excellent facilities. The ponies want for nothing and much loved .
Healthy budget. I must stress this pony needs to be a confidence giver!

Penny has been with us in our small loaning yard for a year now. She has done it all from teaching children to canter to cross country days at different venues to being plaited up and pony painted!!!!

She is as patient as they come and as loving as your loyal best friend. She has beautiful manners and is everyone’s best friend.

On flat work lessons she teaches children to canter and is happy for a less confident child or a child that wants to work on position. She is mannerly and works through her transitions beautifully all in a snaffle bridle.

Jumping she jumps well up to 50/55’s great cross country and very happy to jump a filler or plank. She’s happy to go around a course in trot or canter and always try’s her hardest and listens to the most smallest rider.

Hacking wow she is a superstar with a large group or alone she is always well behaved and easy going. Good in traffic and open spaces. Will jump the ditch and small hedges out and happy to potter around the village to get her riders confidence.

She is such a fabulous pony and has everything to give your child from confidence to rosettes at the local show to being the safest.

This is a hard sale for us but as summer holidays come and children go on holidays we aren’t as busy so something has to be sold.
