Blue Cross Jack

  • Companion pony
  • Easy to handle
  • Loves human interaction
£180
  • Cob
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 19 years
  • 14.2hh / 148cm
  • Companion pony
  • Easy to handle
  • Loves human interaction

Jack is a lovely, laid-back gelding with a sweet nature and a real love for human interaction. He has settled beautifully into his foster home and is proving to be a relaxed, friendly character who enjoys spending time with people.

Jack is straightforward to catch and enjoys being groomed and fussed over. He is happy to stand tied up, is good to have his feet picked out and has been very well behaved for veterinary procedures and the farrier. He leads nicely, although he can occasionally be tempted by a tasty patch of grass!

Jack currently lives happily alongside another gelding and would love a home where he can continue enjoying the company of an equine friend. He is currently carrying some extra weight, so his new home will need to be mindful of his grazing and help him achieve a healthier weight.

With his gentle personality and easy-going attitude, Jack has all the makings of a wonderful non-ridden companion. He would be a lovely addition to a caring home where he can enjoy plenty of attention, a consistent routine and a happy future.

Squid is a lovely teen Welsh mare looking for a patient, understanding home where she can continue to build her confidence and enjoy life as a much-loved non-ridden companion.

Squid is currently working on developing her confidence with everyday handling and new experiences. Although she still has areas of her training to work on, we are optimistic about her future and would love to find someone who enjoys building a positive relationship with their pony.

Squid would benefit from a calm, consistent routine and an experienced, sympathetic handler who can give her the time and reassurance she needs to progress at her own pace.

We are hopeful that, with the right home and continued support, Squid will blossom into a rewarding little companion. She is looking for someone who can see her potential and enjoy the journey with her.

£180

  • 13hh / 133cm
  • Companion pony
  • Sweet gelding
  • Needs a quiet settled home

Conker is a sweet, timid gelding who is looking for a loving forever home as a companion only. Having arrived into our care from the RSPCA in August 2026, Conker is now ready to find someone who can give him the time, patience and understanding he needs to truly come out of his shell. He can be worried when it comes to catching, but thrives when positive reinforcement is used and will benefit from a calm, consistent approach.

Conker is currently living out in a mixed herd, but he is equally happy to part stable. He would suit a quiet, settled home where he can build a trusting relationship and form a special bond with his handler. 

For the right person, Conker could be a very rewarding pony to get to know and watch grow in confidence.

Wilma is a lovely Irish Sport Horse mare who came into Blue Cross care in July 2026 due to a change in her owner's circumstances. Since arriving, she has been settling in well and showing great progress, with her confidence growing all the time.

Wilma is looking for a companion home with someone who will continue to build her trust and help her develop at her own pace. She is good to lead, enjoys being groomed and is happy to have her feet picked up. We are currently working on improving her catching and helping her become more confident in new situations.

Wilma lives out 24/7 and happily shares her space in a mixed herd. She can also part stable, provided she has equine company nearby. As she is a good doer, she does require some grazing restriction to maintain a healthy weight. Wilma would make a rewarding project companion for someone who enjoys forming a close bond with their horse and supporting them as they continue to flourish.

  • Non ridden companion
  • Very rewarding to work with
  • Happy to live out or be part stabled

Based at Foster – Derbyshire Area

Meet Rory, a handsome young gelding who is looking for his new home as a project pony or non-ridden companion. Once Roru turns four he can start the backing process to become a future childrens pony, or would also make a great companion for other young ponies.

Rory is generally easy to handle including being good to catch, lead and groom. Due to his age he will require some consistent handling to further his education, especially with leg handling, however, will be extremely rewarding to work with.

Rory is currently living out in a gelding only herd, due to recently being castrated. He will require some restrictive grazing due to his type so is best suited living with other ponies with similar grazing needs.

Can you offer Rory a loving home?

Olly is generally easy to handle including being good to catch lead and groom. He does require some extra training with his leg handling so does require an experienced handler.

Olly is currently turned out at night and stabled during the day on soaked hay for weight management, so will need a home where he can continue to be on restricted grazing.
