Not your average cob! Sooty is forward going, with lovely light paces and the sweetest temperament. She is deep in the body so takes up the leg well, but not especially wide. We have owned her for nearly 4 years and she is now very sadly outgrown.

We bought Sooty as a FYFR type for our very nervous 8 year old daughter, and she did a brilliant job of getting her off the lead rein and teaching her how to ride on her own.

During our time with her, Sooty has done pony club, including stay-away camps, mini jumping, fun rides, dressage, lots of hacking, group lessons, trec clinics etc. She is snaffle mouthed at all times.

She is Brilliant hacking in farm traffic, fabulous to lead off another horse, good to load, clip and shoe (shod all round as we do a lot of road work) Always comes to be caught and is the type to come over to you for a cuddle. lunges and long reins. Currently lives out 24/7 with mares and geldings. Never had laminitis with us.

My daughter has always led her in and out to the field, loaded her, groomed, tacked up etc by herself.

Sooty is responsive and doesn’t do everything for you but is safe (see video). She is forward but not a whizzy excitable type.

It is very important that we find Sooty the right family as we all adore her. We are looking for an experienced home for Sooty. She has the sweetest nature and so much to give. We would like to stay in contact with her new owners and references will be required.

Full wardrobe available separately.
