Zoë Arkell - Pony Search Agent


Ref #: 402560
  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies
  • Some fabulous knowledgeable homes waiting
  • No fees for sellers
  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies
  • Some fabulous knowledgeable homes waiting
  • No fees for sellers

I have motivated clients looking for genuine, kind, quality and proven ponies to take part in all Pony Club activities.

The ponies I would love to hear about are those not needing to be advertised to secure a new home. There is no harm in finding out whether I know of a better home and match. Perhaps you worry about your child finding it upsetting seeing their old pony regularly at rallies etc - then selling out of area could be a better solution.

These are motivated buyers receiving guidance as to what will likely suit their child - not the timewasters regularly reported. In most cases homes are also knowledgeable: simply lacking in time to conduct a search themselves. Most will also wait for the right pony so if you are not ready to sell yet - that is not an issue.

There are some decent budgets available relative to age and medical conditions etc.

All leads will be handled with discretion. Please feel free to give me a call, drop me a WhatsApp or check out my Instagram page @theponysearchagent

We are also offering free sales livery. Customers waiting.

HORSES WANTED – LOVING HOMES FOUND

Thinking of selling your horse but dreading the process?

The endless phone calls, time-wasters, missed viewings, strangers coming to the yard, costly sales livery and sometimes still no sale at the end of it.

We offer a different way.

We buy horses directly, offering a quick, straightforward and hassle-free sale, with prompt collection and fair trade prices.

But most importantly, we care about where every horse ends up.

Horses that come to us aren’t simply stood in a sales yard waiting for their next owner. Their time with us is spent enjoying life — happy hacking, trips to the beach, hunting and generally being horses.

We take the time to get to know each one, understand what they enjoy and work out what sort of job and home will suit them best. Then we find them their person — the right human and the right home for their next chapter.

Previous owners are welcome to stay in touch and follow their horse’s journey with their new family. We understand how important it is to know that a much-loved horse has landed on their feet.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

15.2hh plus

4–15 years old

Chunkier types particularly wanted — the chunkier the better

Genuine riding horses looking for their next job

Vices and quirks are not necessarily deal-breakers, but they must be honestly declared. We would always rather have an open conversation about a horse and decide whether they are right for us.

Fair trade prices offered with prompt collection available.

Please understand that although we are happy to consider horses with quirks, we are not a dumping ground or a way to simply get rid of bad stock. Honesty is essential. We are looking for genuine horses that deserve the opportunity to find the job and person that suit them.

A simple, stress-free sale for you, a happy time with us, and the right home at the end of it.

Please get in touch with an honest description, photos and videos of your horse. Prices must be realistic please.

We can offer a high standard of care, a light work load so older ages are acceptable if sound.
