Finley is an amazing pony who is bombproof and has never put a foot wrong. unfortunately back in April he had a fall whilst being out ridden and damaged his hip. the vet has advised he have a year off ridden work as he has become lame under saddle and can be stiff after hacking out or anything strenuous.
He is great with farrier, around children, with mares or geldings, to box, shoe and has been clipped in the past (although not whilst we've had him). he is unshod at present as he is out of work and has had his feet trimmed recently.
we are looking for a home for him for the next 12 months to give him a nice rest. our horses encourage him to charge about and he is making himself stiff but he doesnt cope well being stabled 24-7. ideally he would be suitable with 1 or two other horses. he is curently not receiving any medication or treatment other than rest for a year.
5* homes only that will genuinely leave him to heal and not force him back into work too quickly. he is such a lving gentle pony and wouldnt hurt a fly, he's been hacked out by 5yr olds in the past and acts like a nanny towards them. its really sad that we need to find him a new home for a while but really feel he needs a nice peaceful rest.
it could be arranged that when the year is over he could be brought back into work by loaner and used as ridden pony.
only 7yrs old, too young to retire! but does need some rest and recouperation that we just cant provide him with our rabble in the same fields.
please get in touch, we would like to find him somewhere quite soon.

could potentially be brought back into work slowly in late spring, he will make an ideal mother/daughter share / hunter pony, show jumper, he is an amazing pony and deserves the time and attention that we just can afford right now.
