Hi Janet, thanks for the advice, I'll try and upload some that I have on my phone and I'll go and take some new ones today. My original plans were to do dressage with my 15hh + youngster lol. He was small when I looked at him as a yearling but he was in such poor condition that I thought a good bit of grass, plenty of hay etc he'd have a spurt!! He is a welsh D x TB and is in Hutton (Brentwood). |

How about letting us see a couple of photos of him? There may be someone on here looking for a youngster to bring on or be able to give you further advice. It's a very active forum and we're a really friendly bunch ;o) 14.1 is a great height for driving and he is old enough to start his education. What breed/type is he? What were your original plans for him? Also where abouts in the country are you in case someone would like to come and see him. Good driving ponies are like good kids' showjumpers or pony club ponies - they always have a decent value, a great job and the better chance of a good home. |

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum stuff so please bare with me.... I need some advice!!! I bought a youngster which was supposed to make 15.2 however, he decided to stop growing at 14.1ish!!! He is too small for me so wasn't sure what to do with him and been advised to sell as unbroken 3 1/2 yr old. He had a very bad start in life so didn't wanna sell him coz I was so worried where he would end up and what he'd be doing. Anyway to cut a long story short, my farrier was looking at him and said that he would be ideal for horse driving trials coz he build and speed etc. It's not something I'd ever thought about as it's not my cup of tea but having watched it on TV could really see him excelling in this! What kind of horses do they use for this and any suggestions of a good place to advertise?? Any suggestions/opinions/advice very welcome. Thanks |
