Cheddar is a young native gelding seeking a quiet, experienced home as a non-ridden companion. He’s a sensitive and gentle young pony who is still gaining confidence and responds well to consistent, calm handling.
Currently, he’s best suited to living with one quiet gelding, as he can feel overwhelmed by more dominant or larger herds. Cheddar is comfortable being left alone for short periods and prefers a predictable routine.
Cheddar is making steady progress in his training. Catching is still a work in progress, but once caught, he leads well and enjoys being groomed by people he trusts. He’s also good for having his feet picked out and has coped well with farrier visits. Cheddar can be nervous around vets but is manageable with reassurance.
Clicker training has helped Cheddar build positive associations, and he is beginning to enjoy interaction in the stable environment, which he finds more reassuring than the field.
With the right home - calm, patient, and consistent, Cheddar will continue to grow in confidence and become a rewarding companion pony.
