John has found his new home 🥰🥰🥰

Banjo - stb gelding
Approx 15.2hh
10yo? Can’t find my chip scanner!

This big floofy teddy bear is looking for a confident best friend.

In his time his done pony club, poles, jumping, lessons, trails and more!

He is a forward moving guy, very responsive . Not nasty but ready to move the moment you ask.

He has a lovely canter, both leads, and sits so nicely in it.

Videos show experienced rider and novice riders, however they are all confident novices and ridden under my guidance, they probably aren’t too far off being advanced novices, all can walk trot canter and steady up a horse.

He has no nasties, however he can be a little anxious, he needs a kick in the belly and to be told to get on with it, if his rider gets nervous he questions things straight up. So not for nervous nellies.

I quite like him, I have no issues with him, but I just get on and ride! That’s the ideal person for him! Who cares if he’s looking at something, keep going buddy!

Yep he can get anxious and unsure, would I put my 10yo on him if he did anything drastic? He’ll no, but this fella doesn’t do anything you can just feel him tense and rush.

Banjo has been out of work for a bit, and has come back into work no issues but can occasionally forget his ground manners, so does need you to stay on top of him.

He is up to date with dentist and farrier.

He would suit most things, and is a quiet mount for an experienced rider. Arena work is pretty easygoing, trails a little looky but nothing stupid, a cattle truck went past and he didn’t bat an eye lid.

A big floofy teddy bear!

John - big gentle giant!
Approx 16.1-16.2hh I’ll have to find my pic
12yo

This big guy is a favourite around here, pull out jump on and go, a lovely nature and very calm.

Absolutely no nasties, but does have a big trot , it’s not bouncy it’s just big and ground covering. John has tried canter, he’ll give a few strides but prefers to trot around.

In the arena he’s proven pretty well unflappable, ba****ck, saddled, playing with things, really non fuss, slide off his bum even.

Down the road he remained cool and calm, but did need us to hold his hand to go through a water crossing and the creek, doesn’t do anything silly but just needed to be told it was going to be okay and that you will be in it together.

John has had a lot of slow work as needed to build a lot of muscle up to sustain ridden work, he is currently looking fab but still a little bit to go. We’d love him to be in a pleasure home, nothing full on or competitive as that’s just not him or his nature.

Imagine a plodder home, but he’s not quite classed as a plodder movement wise!

He doesn’t require a perfect flash rider, but someone with knowledge is good providing what home you are for him. Big trot not always suited to beginners either!

Up to date with teeth, chiro, and farrier, has been rugged but recently taken off, may go back on looking at the weather!

Videos to come, first to meet the big goof will buy, he’s an absolute pleasure to have around.

Sav in a nutshell, stubborn, but gives in eventually 😅😅😅

Cheeky little man is still looking for a partner in crime / mother to yell at him all day 🥹🥰

Giveaway - companion only

Buddy - stb gelding approx 15.3hh rising 9yo

Very sweet loving guy. Had a nap this morning and let me cuddle him.

Sadly doesn’t appear sound for riding, and would do better on flatter land without 6/7 other horses chasing him around.

He has been backed but not broken in, time may pass and he may be sound, but at present he doesn’t appear to be.

A sweet loving companion.

Sorry folks I’m a little behind in posting lately. I feel like each day just comes and goes and lives on repeat. And suffering great back pain lately, waiting on scans and living on daily pain killers.

We’ve still got Sav looking for his new home, looking for someone that just wants to ride and doesn’t care what the horse does under him, ie pace trot canter. He’s nothing special but he’s honestly being completely forgotten about, and I’d love for him to have a new human that loves him and plays with him.

We’ve still got Bella looking for her new home. Leg is healing well, very forward girl, enjoys trails, no nasties just responsive.

We’ve got a lovely big quiet d***y gelding that will be coming up soon, he’s been life in the slow lane building up his body and condition, whilst he’s not a plodder himself, I want a plodder type home for him. He’s got a lovely big trot with no nasties at all. I would say at this stage novice friendly in the arena. John.

We’ve got the lovely fluffy forward teddy bear that’s been on the page in videos lately, I’m just waiting on time to do up his advert but he’s ready for a new future. No nasties just very forward and responsive, has a lovely canter. Just needs a confident rider. Banjo.

My little “naughty” mare has been on her best behaviour lately, I have very high hopes for her, but still want an experienced balanced rider for her. She’s a lovely girl all of about 14.2-14.3hh and just a baby. Aria.

We’ve got another little mare here coming along well, she’s got mare face but she’s proving to be relatively reliable but has to have a little “I don’t wanna” with her face occasionally. Gem.

And we have 2 other boys coming along, they are a little further behind the rest but coming along nicely.

Nothing for beginners sorry! Although I reckon I could see Sav as a bit of a leadline for the family in the right experienced home.

Confident riders only - must be balanced.

Super fun, beautiful canter, been out and about, no fuss for someone that knows what they are doing.

Forward, responsive; no silliness, just doesn’t gel with a nervous or unbalanced rider.

A very lovely big teddy bear, this is the one for those that missed bills and locky, so don’t miss out again!!

15.2hh 10yo - will confirm

Not for beginners, nervous riders or unbalanced riders.
