Evoque, although known as “Pig” to us, is quite simply the most beautiful, kind-natured pony you could ever meet. He really is the unicorn every child dreams of. 🦄
7 years old | 11.2hh | Gelding
Small but mighty, Pig is a beautiful, old-fashioned stamp of a pony with a good front, four white socks, a gorgeous pink little nose, striking blue eyes with the sweetest black eyeliner, and tiny ears — with a leg in each corner that you just don’t seem to see in Section A’s nowadays.
He has lovely, correct paces and confidently walks, trots, canters and jumps in the school. He has been showing from a youngster, so he is wonderfully chilled wherever you take him. He has attended shows, arena hires and pole clinics and takes everything in his stride.
Pig is still green but incredibly willing and has never put a foot wrong. I think he has all the makings of a fantastic lead-rein pony, as he is quite happy for tiny tots to bounce around and learn their rising trot on him.
I’ll be completely honest and say I’m not experienced with lead-rein ponies, but I have set him up so that he will walk, trot and stand from voice commands, and he has been through shows and behaved brilliantly. He would definitely benefit from someone who knows what they are doing to continue developing him.
Off the lead, I think he would be more suited to an older sibling second pony as he is forward and still learning so for this reason I wouldn’t say he’s a first year first ridden. He isn’t the finished product yet, but he is so willing and has all the assets to become an absolutely amazing show pony.
I have done lots of long-lining and groundwork with him, and he has also done plenty of hacking. He will happily hack alone or in company, at the front or behind, and he is super chilled and not the spooky type. He will also happily lead from another horse while out hacking.
Pig is:
● Excellent to load and travel
● Happy to have a bath
● Good for the dentist — teeth have just been done
● Good to catch
● Happy living in a mixed herd
● Happy living out
● Has been stabled alone and with others
● Brilliant to handle and loves attention
● Loves being groomed and you can quite literally climb all over him — he couldn’t care less!
He was initially a little nervous with the farrier the first time but not nasty, just wary. Once he got to know my farrier, he has been absolutely perfect. Barefoot with good feet
In the stable, Pig is a real sweetheart. He adores attention and being groomed and is simply the sort of pony you could spend all day fussing over.
We all absolutely adore Pig, and it is only because the child he was intended for isn’t quite ready for a forward pony off the lead that he is looking for his next home.
His previous owner, who owned him from a foal, and ourselves would absolutely love to follow his journey and stay in touch with his new family.
He really is a special little pony with the kindest nature, and we would love to find him a home where his potential can be brought out and he can be treasured by his own little person ❤️
