✨ Chime – Welsh Section A Mare | Approx. 11.2hh ✨
Affectionately known as Chime, this lovely young Welsh Section A mare is looking for a confident, experienced home where she can continue to learn, gain confidence and reach her full potential.
Chime has been used as a lead-rein pony for my 4-year-old daughter and has also attended pony games and pony camp with a 6-year-old rider. She is a pony who really benefits from having a confident child who believes in her. My 4-year-old is very confident and has had no problems with her.
One of Chime’s biggest strengths is how well she copes with new environments and experiences. She loads and travels well and takes new places in her stride. At camp, she was completely unfazed by a new stable, flapping gazebos, tents and all the general activity that comes with camp life. She would really thrive in a Pony Club-style home where she can get out, see the world and continue experiencing new things.
Chime is very much a character and a mare with her own opinions! She isn’t naturally an overly affectionate pony, but she will stand to be groomed, fussed over and covered in glitter. She is also very much part of family life here and will happily hang out in the garden while the children are playing in the paddling pool, taking everything going on around her in her stride.
She can pull faces when she has had enough and has bitten handlers when her boundaries have been pushed. She is, however, very clear in her communication and gives warning. She needs people who are confident enough to understand her body language and respect her boundaries.
Ridden, she is good on the lead rein and will have the occasional small spook. These are nothing dramatic and are small enough for a confident child to sit to. At camp she had a session with a complete beginner rider, aged 8, when she spooked. She simply carried on with what she was doing and the rider was completely unfazed.
Another lovely quality is that Chime doesn’t hold onto a fright. If something does worry her, she is happy to carry on and revisit the same place without making an issue of it. This gives her a lot of potential as she gains experience and confidence.
She is still a young mare who needs further education, consistency and guidance, but I feel she has plenty of potential for someone prepared to put the time into building a partnership with her.
On the ground, Chime can be a little bit of a diva when it comes to catching! She is very much a pony who wants to build a bond with her person and, in my opinion, would absolutely thrive in a one-owner home where she can develop that special relationship with someone who understands her.
She is straightforward to keep and is happy to be stabled on her own or alongside others in a barn. She is equally happy turned out alone or in a group and is best suited to turn out with geldings.
Chime isn’t going to suit everyone, and I am looking for a confident, experienced child with knowledgeable parents or an experienced home. She needs someone who will appreciate her character, understand her signals and give her the consistency and confidence she needs.
I genuinely feel she could be a fabulous little Pony Club pony for the right person, with plenty of scope to develop her education and experience over the coming years.
A young mare with bags of character, a great attitude to new adventures and huge potential for the right partnership. ❤️
Priced accordingly to reflect her age, current experience and the knowledgeable home she requires.
