Tweed is a fantastic stamp of a proper highland pony with an exceptional temperament to match. He was broken to ride at 8 years old and is now 10. Tweed is 100% to catch, groom, pick feet, tack up, tie, get on and off and to ride. He is just about as easy as they come, he would make a perfect mother daughter share or equally make someone a smashing low level alrounder. I personally think he would excel in the dressage scene or show ring he do well bred by the Erray stud. Tweed has had an impressive start in life doing some dressage training and a lot of hacking both alone and in company, since coming to me he has continued his training.
🫶 14hh, 10 year old, highland pony gelding 🫶 Hacks alone and in company at whatever pace suits his rider that day
🫶 Easy to catch, tack up, groom etc
🫶 Very well schooled in walk and trot, currently working on his strength in canter
🫶 NOT A LAZY HIGHLAND! Tweed is off the leg and nicely responsive without feeling sharp
🫶 Tweed will happily live in or out and is an easy kept boy
🫶 Lunges nicely and doesn’t pull isn’t silly
🫶 tweed is new to jumping having only done this a handful of times, he is honest over small fences and aims to please. He grows in confidence with a positive approach.
Tweed can be slightly slower to load into trailers however with boxes and lorry’s has proved easy with a positive attitude and he travels well alone and in company. This is the only thing I feel tweed still needs time and training with.
Tweed is for sale on behalf of his owner from my yard In Newtyle, Angus. He is the kind of boy that doesn’t come along often with talent, presence and the ability to step up and down for his jockey. One of the best temperaments around never bargy or strong a very kind and gentle nature. He has been nothing but a pleasure to have at my yard and I will happily keep him until the right home comes along.
Tweeds ideal home will do a bit of everything with him, he loves hacking and popping a few jumps he doesn’t want to be in the arena 6 days a week and I don’t blame him although he wouldn’t protest! He will give his person everything he has always aiming to please and put a smile on your face.
Tweed comes with a complete set of tack, AH saddle, bridle, stirrups and girth that his owner has had professionally fitted to him.
