BEEN THERE DONE THAT, GOT THE T-SHIRT
Do you know of a little person searching for the ultimate pony club pony to start their journey on?
Are you looking for a pony that is trustworthy in any situation?
Do you want peace of mind and a pony that is 100% safe and calm confidence giver?
We bought Harri in 2020 unseen as he was too far away - this was the most lucky and fantastic opportunity, there was a queue of people but I knew straight away he was the real life unicorn I had been searching for!
Taking part in lead rein activities to begin with
Teaching them their up downs at the very beginning
To more recently jumping up to 60cm out and about and everything in between ! 70cm at home!
Harri looks after your child and loves little people. This is where he REALLY EXCELS.
The pony that is used at camp for other little people to hop on and gain their confidence. He’s not speedy and the sort that will slow down if he feels his rider is wobbly. He loves children and thats the job that makes him happy. Slow and steady wins the race! Harri will follow the leader round happily a course of jumps or dressage test like a dog. As a first pony he teaches the rider to become confident and accomplished ready to move onto their second pony.
Harriman has taken us on a wonderful fun packed journey over the last 5 years.
All of our special memories and all of our special firsts involve Harri. Our first hack, first lesson, first trot, first canter, first pony club rally, first pony club camp, first show, first rosette all of these would not have been possible without this pony.
Harri is more woah than go and definitely a kick along which has been perfect for us as our daughter has learnt to transition into canter, get to grips with being out in open spaces, XC and hacking out on the roads with traffic. She can canter bareback across the field without me worrying !
He has the patience of a saint. Amazing manners especially with little ones. He's happy to be groomed, fussed and pampered all day long.I know, I can let my children safely handle him to groom, bath, tack up, rug up, muck out and load. There is nothing I wouldn't trust this fabulous pony with.
We’ve done pc camps, rallies, pc show jumping, cross country, showing, mini one day events, hunting, fun rides, local shows, gymkhanas, village fete pony rides the list is endless!
Harri can be left for weeks without been ridden, he has never altered in any situation out and about there’s nothing that this pony turn his hoof to! Harri is in at night over the winter and out by day over the spring/summer on restricted grazing. He’s been fully shod due to the terrain where we live and work load and currently just fronts , but can go bare foot depending on work load and terrain. We live on a busy working farm so he’s used to big machinery cattle , sheep and noise .
Up to date with all vaccinations. No vices or health issues. Perfect for the vet , farrier, dentist and to clip.
From the stable to out and about, Harri is a joy.His temperament is second to none - loving, gentle, and cheekily charming.
This pony means the world to my daughter and to us as a family -particularly for me as he’s looked after my daughter since she was 3- I have put off advertising him as dreading him leaving but know he is not ready to retire or become a family pet.
This is a very sad and difficult sale, and we are looking for the right home because he's only had 2 homes before us. The previous owners would like updates as well which would be expected. The type of home is the most important to us as my daughter is onto her new pony. Harri is fit and ready to go for the next little person over the summer. The home we are looking for is a private experienced home, with little one(s) around the age of 3 or 4 that can enjoy him for a few years with a varied lifestyle. Please don’t contact me unless you can offer this sort of home.
Strictly no time wasters! Many photos and videos available upon request.
Tack and rugs included in the sale.
