Lara is a fantastic pony who is willing and keen. She has been owned by her current owner for 6 years. During that time she’s been a happy hacker and a pet to love. Lara hasn’t had much formal education but the basics are established. Lara is requiring a new family to be loved as her owner has relocated out of the area.
Lara is currently in work 3/4 times a week which includes hacking and in the school. The walk and trot is established but canter does require more education. She is jumping a small course of around 40cm in trot, if Lara offers the canter we let her stay in this gait. Lara has shown vast amounts of willing towards the jumping.
Lara hacks in company perfectly, she will go first or last but usually plodding at the rear of a group ride. Lara does hack out alone but Due to her being a child’s pony she usually has someone on foot with her. We also ride Lara in an empty paddock where Lara has a better establishment of her canter and offers more freely. Lara has wonderful breaks already in place and goes in a snaffle.
Lara has excellent stable manners and groundwork. She has been groomed and bathed by children for hours. She is fabulous for the farrier, tie-up, spray and pick her feet out. Lara does require sedation for clipping.
Lara lives out in the summer months and in during the night in winter. Lara could easily live out 24/7, She’s middle in the hierarchy in a mixed herd and can display some Welsh tendencies of funky faces, bucking and a head toss.
Lara is barefoot and she is a really good doer, cheap to keep! Her only health/behaviour is a gurn. This has been fully investigated by vet, acupuncture, cryotherapy, cranio sacral and physio which all have said no mechanical or physical problem. Lara does it when breakfast is being served, heavy handed rider or when she’s fatigued.This gives her no issue putting her bridle on, tacking up or being ridden. Lara has done this the 6 years she’s been owned.
