Meet Dabs, a charming Connemara gelding looking for his perfect forever home as a non-ridden companion. Dabs has an affectionate, gentle personality that makes him a joy to be around. His kind eyes and calm demeanour make him the perfect companion for other horses and a beloved addition to any equine family.

While he is generally well-mannered, due to his age, Dabs would benefit from some ongoing ground education to keep him engaged and well-rounded. Dabs is currently living harmoniously with geldings and could adapt to living with mares if introduced carefully. He is good to groom, pick out feet, lead and see the vet and farrier.

He is content living out 24/7 or being partially stabled, depending on the preference of his new home. Dabs will thrive in a home that appreciates his companion-only status and can continue to nurture his friendly nature. He may enjoy walks out in hand or even equine agility.

If you’re looking for a warm-hearted equine to bring friendship and joy to your herd, Dabs is ready to be that special presence. Reach out to learn more and see if your home could be the perfect match for this lovable gelding.

Meet Bill, a charming cob gelding looking for a dedicated and loving new home! Bill is a gentle, small cob who has great potential as a companion or future riding pony for a child. He’s best suited for a quiet, experienced home where his needs can be attentively met.

Bill has had a laminitis flare-up in the past, so proactive weight management is essential. He thrives on a carefully planned part-stabled routine with restricted grazing or a track system. He may benefit from wearing boots as he gradually starts light work to help support his feet.

Initially a little nervous, Bill needs a patient and understanding handler to help him build trust and settle in. With the right support, he will come out of his shell and show his sweet, willing nature. Bill is sociable with both mares and geldings and would make a great addition to a mixed herd.

Bill is a long-term project pony, ideal for someone who enjoys slow and steady progress. While he has the potential for light work with children, it is not a necessity. He would be more than happy to provide companionship to similar sized aged ponies or even potential as a non-ridden therapy pony.

If you think you can offer Bill the gentle and balanced lifestyle he needs, he will repay you with companionship and gradual, rewarding development.

Companion Pony - Noodles

Noodles is a charming and resilient pony who has touched the hearts of everyone who meets him. A former lead rein pony, he is now enjoying a well-deserved retirement and is seeking a caring home where he can thrive. Though he has stepped back from his working days, his kind nature and affectionate personality remain fully intact.

Noodles has a manageable health condition that requires a careful diet to help him maintain a healthy weight. Although he currently doesn’t need medication, monitoring his diet is essential to his well-being. He would be happiest living in an environment with sparse grazing or on a track system that helps regulate his intake. Ideal companions would include Shetlands or other small native ponies that share similar living needs.

This sweet, lone soul has so much love to give to the right family. He enjoys the company of both mares and geldings, making him a flexible addition to an established herd. While he can be independent, he also relishes quiet moments of companionship with his equine friends and caretakers alike.

Noodles is a delight to handle. He stands patiently for grooming and willingly offers his hooves for picking out. His cooperative and calm demeanour make him a joy to be around. Ready to welcome Noodles into your life? This special pony is waiting to find his forever home where he can continue to be loved and cherished.

Companion Pony - Ramona

Ramona is a sweet and loving mare who, despite having a veterinary condition that means she cannot be ridden, still has so much to offer her new family. She is a gentle and friendly horse with a kind heart, and she loves spending time with people. Ramona is a perfect companion for someone looking for a horse to enjoy on the ground, whether it’s going for walks in hand, doing groundwork, or even trying something like agility.

She gets along well with other horses and is easy to handle once settled in a routine, making her an ideal choice for a family or individual who has the time and patience to enjoy her at her own pace. Ramona is the perfect mare for someone who wants a calm, loving companion who doesn’t require the demands of riding but still enjoys being involved in equine activities.

Ramona has a veterinary condition that means she cannot be ridden. However, she remains in good health and is perfectly capable of living an active and enjoyable life through other activities. Her condition requires careful management, and she will need a home where her new family can be mindful of her limitations.

Ramona’s ideal home would be with an experienced horse owner who understands her needs and can offer her the care and companionship she deserves.
