Dizzy is unfortunately looking for a new home as a hacking/family pony.

We bought Dizzy two years ago from a professional event rider hoping to event and showjump her but unfortunately a few months after we got her, she started to go unsound, we had her looked at and found her pelvis was misaligned so we had her treated by a chiropractor but unfortunately she has never come properly right despite our extensive efforts to solve the problem. We tried competing her, eventing and showjumping hoping she would improve with work. We show jumped her BS up to 1m and though she tried very hard and generally went clear she wasn;t really able to do it and we think she would be better in a non-competitive home. As my daughter comes off ponies this year we are looking for a home where she can be a family pet/ enjoy her work at a lower level.

While she enjoys popping around a low course of fences she is NOT for someone who is looking to actively compete. We have tried this and have decided that it is not in her best interests to be living in a competitive home.

She is a very sweet, kind pony and is happy living in a herd, good to catch, shoe, box, etc

She feels stiff when you first get on her and if you try to jump too big on her but otherwise her unsoundness is unnoticeable. She schools nicely on the flat and has scored sub 30 dressages.

She is by Take it 2 the limit, an advanced event horse, and would breed a nice foal.

She can sometimes be buzzy to ride when fresh but doesn’t buck/bolt/rear and is a good hack.

Ideally she would suit someone looking to have fun hacking or in lower level pony club home with a confident kid looking to have fun.

5* homes only.
