• Older, retired
• Gelding
• 13/2hh

Seeking an older , retired pony to keep our 27yr old company. Must be happy to live out or in, good to catch/farrier/vet. Primary job will be to keep our old boy company but equally willing to have a saddle chucked on once a week for a walk round the paddock with the granddaughter.

Must be able to tolerate cuddles and kisses, knowledgeable and loving home waiting for the right one.

• 13hh - 15 2hh
• RDA centre needing LWVTB/Loan
• Temperament is more important than breed

We are looking for any breed for LWVTB as they will need to be trialled in our RDA environment before purchasing to see if they're suited to this lifestyle before a participant can ride them. This is as much for the ponies as the suitability for riders.

Must already be ridden and has to be over 5 yrs old (RDA rules). Can accept some quirks but must be safe for our disabled riders. They will also have to pass a stage 2 vetting which can be arranged whilst on loan.

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

We have stables but they live out as much as possible even throughout winter. We can offer small herd/individual turnout.

If you would like to check out our RDA centre we are online and Facebook as Elisabeth Curtis Centre.

- Must be sane and sensible out hacking and be used to a variety of things, including cyclists, various machinery and manage motorway bridges and train bridges with encouragement.

- Horse will be highly pampered, enjoying lots of grooming sessions and cuddles! Must be a people person and like spending lots of time with owner, as will be on assisted DIY.

• Full Up 14.2 - 15.2hh. Age 6 -14 yrs.
• Confident Hacking Out / Meeting Farm Vehicles. Sensible To Hack In A Group / At Pleasure Rides.
• Lightweight Cob / Connemara Or Similar Type.

I am searching for a trustworthy, best friend type to welcome to our kind, knowledgeable, family home. Our horses are treated as part of our family & they receive the absolute best of care. I would be happy to provide references & to keep in touch.

I have ridden for several years & consider myself a knowledgeable & capable rider. However, due to ongoing health issues with my horse, who is now retired, I haven’t ridden as consistently in more recent years & so I am no longer as confident as I once was. Therefore, I am seeking a laid back, best friend type, who does not need riding most days to remain safe & sane (realistically, I will generally ride 3-4 times a week).

We will be enjoying fun hacks from home, attending organised pleasure rides, forest trips, XC schooling & some clinics. I will at times want to hack alone but will also hack alongside my young daughter on her (sometimes quirky!) horse, so it is especially important that I find a level-headed, trustworthy type who I can depend on. Due to us going out in our horsebox regularly, I would like to find a horse who is good to load / travel &, most importantly, who remains calm & polite to handle & ride in different environments.

Our horses are kept at home with us & have all year turnout (stabled overnight during winter). I would love to find a gentle natured, polite character & a true best friend type.

We live in a rural area & although we generally meet very little traffic, when we do, it is often likely to be a tractor/farm vehicle. Therefore, it is hugely important that my new horse is confident around this type of traffic.

* I do appreciate that no horse is ‘perfect’ & that ‘bombproof’ does not exist & I am open to compromise, but please do just be honest about any possible known ‘issues’ as I will not buy unseen & would want to have any potential horse vetted *

We are based in Norfolk so ideally looking for something in or around East Anglia but would travel further if plenty of info, videos/photos could be provided beforehand. I have a sensible budget & very relaxed & loving forever home for the right horse.

• Experienced family home
• Offering a varied and fun life

We are on the hunt for that pony.

You know the one.

The mother’s dream, the schoolmaster, the “why on earth are they selling this?!” type, the one you’ve considered having more kids for..

Specs:

* Approx 12 - 13hh

* Gelding preferred (a non-mareish mare absolutely welcome - no prejudice here, just mild emotional scarring from one hormonal diva already in residence)

The rider:

A small 9 year old with a beautiful seat and hands, currently popping around 50cm out, 60cm + at home on a saintly type.

However…

Said child is not here for mind games, life lessons, or character-building via being launched into next year.

We are seeking confidence, not chaos.

Job description for said unicorn:

* Take child safely from 50cm up to ~70cm without drama.

* Attend Pony Club, school teams, hacking adventures

* Be a best friend, therapist, and occasional babysitter

* Be 100% in open spaces (we live on a farm - no hedges to cling to here, just vibes and fields)

* Hack alone and in company like it’s a gentle stroll through a Jane Austen novel

* Preferably the type that, when faced with excitement, thinks:

“Absolutely not, I am a professional.”

Personality required:

* Kind

* Forgiving

* Mannerly

* Unflappable

* Has absolutely nothing left to prove to anyone

The home:

* Experienced, knowledgeable, and slightly obsessive

* Farm with turnout, routine, and a varied life

* Supported by vets, physios, saddlers, instructors… and emotional support WhatsApp groups

* This pony will want for nothing

We fully appreciate this is a big ask and these ponies are usually kept under lock and key…

…but if you have a special little legend looking to step down, be adored, and make a child’s world, we would love to hear from you. Emotional sellers welcome.

💰Low 5’s waiting for the right unicorn 🦄

Ideally located within 2 hours of Dorset

• Looking for safe and sane
• Ideally leg in each corner type

Looking for a safe, sane, pony for 3 generations of our family to enjoy hacking and low level Riding Club activities.

Must be safe in traffic and around farm animals, machinery and dogs. Nothing that naps, bucks, kicks, bolts etc. Can be a pony stepping down. Definitely not a youngster.

Ideally a pony with a leg in each corner type, but not a kick along.

Preferably between 10-15yrs old, 14hh-14.3hh

Based in West Sussex, we have our own stables and land, and the pony would want for nothing.

• Private loving home awaits
• Good budget for the right pony
• Life long home

Seeking my next perfect pony! Must haves between - 14.2h and 15.2h, between - 6 and 15 , although would change for the perfect one.

Needs to be within 2 and a half hours of Derbyshire. would go further for the perfect one

MUST be safe around traffic , farm machinery , farm animals ( as I live on a farm ), happy hacking , schooling , fun rides , smaller jumps , local shows - showing , dressage etc

All year round turn out on private land , living with a Connie gelding and mini Shetland gelding ( can be in separate field)

Massive stables roughly 4 times bigger than an average one ! videos and pictures can be provided

Lots of land to hack around.

My preferred breed is a chunky traditional Connemara just because I love the breed so much my previous Connemara gave me so much but he is retired now , but would consider something else that fits the bill , but Connies really are my fav !

I previously had a bad accident with my last pony on the road with a tractor and my confidence is very low , it's very important that my next pony is very safe confidence giver. I am aware no horse is perfect but I don't want anything sharp or spooky and nothing that bolts , rears or bucks , strong etc 
more woah than go

I would prefer no health issues but if it's something slight I will consider.
more must haves are good loading , good for farrier , dentist , for leading and for the vet.

I have had weekly dressage lessons for over a year and then monthly lessons with jumping the year before , spent a lot of time hacking ,before my accident. I have had horses for many years and was a competent rider until my accident where I lost confidence.

I am aware this is a lot to ask for but I know somewhere they must be one for me :) genuine 10 star home awaits thanks !
