SEARCHING FOR OUR PERFECT UNICORN! 🦄
We are looking for that one in a million horse who will be loved, cherished and thoroughly pampered by an owner who is ready to have a horse of their own again.
Before a life changing accident, the owner had their own horse. Following a brain injury resulting in physical disabilities, they have spent over two years attending equine therapy and have now reached a point where they are ready to take the next step towards owning a horse again, with the support of their wonderful family and carers.
A genuine, kind hearted horse who will become a much loved companion (with potential for more) and an important part of their life. Calmness, predictability and tolerance of close human contact non-negotiable. The right horse doesn't necessarily need to be a schoolmaster or have an impressive competition record; it needs to be one that genuinely enjoys people and can cope calmly with the owner's needs.

-Temperament is everything! We need a genuinely safe, kind and sensible horse on the ground who is happy to stand patiently and enjoy lots of attention.
-Happy to be pampered! Must be content to stand for grooming, brushing, bathing, clipping and all the fuss and attention that comes with being thoroughly spoilt.
-Patient and easy to handle. The horse must be comfortable being handled and led by an owner with some limited movement on one side of their body who occasionally uses a wheelchair.
-Unfazed by extra hands! They need to be relaxed and happy having more than one person around them, including several people grooming and fussing over them at once.
-Size, breed and age are flexible. We are far more interested in temperament, trust and suitability than a particular type or age. (Though over 7 is preferable)
-Good with other horses. They would be kept on a livery yard, so they must be happy in a shared equestrian environment.
-Health. Ideally, we are looking for a horse without any significant ongoing health issues at the time of purchase.
What about riding? The owner isn't currently looking to ride, but if our perfect unicorn needs a job to keep them fit and happy, we have a suitable rider available to help keep them in work. (14.2hh and above if ridden work is needed.)

An absolute bonus would be a horse who is already experienced in driving, or one with the right temperament and potential to learn. Driving is something the owner would love to work towards in the future, and finding a horse who could help make that dream a reality would be truly special.
🏡 The home on offer
This horse would be joining a supportive team of family, carers and with extra equine professionals on hand, all committed to making sure they are safe, happy and exceptionally well cared for.
They would have a home where they are valued for who they are, not what they can do, and where there will be plenty of love, attention and opportunities to enjoy life.
🤝 A trial period is important to us.
Because of the owner's disabilities and individual needs, we would need to discuss a trial period to ensure the horse and owner are the right fit for one another or a LWVTB.
We appreciate that this needs to work for the horse as much as the owner, and we are very happy to discuss arrangements with the right seller.
💷 Budget available for the right horse.
We have a good budget for the right match. Finding the right temperament and a suitable partnership is far more important than finding a bargain.
If you have a special horse who might fit the bill, or know of one who deserves a wonderful home, we would absolutely love to hear from you.
Please feel free to message with details, photos and videos. Recommendations and shares are very much appreciated! (Due to the nature of the situation a private sale is preferred over a dealer)
We know our perfect unicorn is out there somewhere. We just need a little help finding them. 🦄❤️

Horse/pony will have a home for life. Good budget for right horse

Wanted super safe well mannered horse 15'2-16hh (8-12yrs approx) for a novice lady rider to mainly hack around the countryside. Must stand to be mounted and respond to aids calmly. Needs to be easy to do in all ways, no vices, lumps, bumps ect. 10* family home for life offered to the right horse.

Ideally a full loan/LWVTB but do have a small budget.
We are looking for a 2nd type pony between 13.2hh and 14.2hh to take part in all pony club activities, especially showing, showjumping, xc and mostly working hunter type classes.
My daughter is 11 and has had the best 3 years on her gold dust first pony who has done his job and given her all the confidence she needs for the next step up.
We are located on a small private yard in Arundel West Sussex and would live with 3 other lovely geldings as a small herd.
My 8 year old daughter has a standard Shetland so they would be off out riding together having lots of pony adventures! Our next pony will live a really varied lifestyle and would want for nothing!
Having our own transport means we love to get out to local shows, arena hires, we are also really lucky living right next to the South Downs with miles of hacking and the beach on our doorstep.
If you think you may have the right pony for us please do get in contact, we have her younger sister waiting in the wings aswell so our next pony will be with us long term.
GELDINGS only because of our set up, nothing too quirky she can deal with the odd small excited buck and something a little bit forward going but must have brakes.

🐴 WANTED Can anyone help please?
We are a little riding school called “Pony Magic” but I am looking for a “Horse” to join the team! Some children have ridden with us for many years and wish to continue but have outgrown our biggest pony. We also know a few mums keen to get back riding!
I am looking to buy, loan, lwvtb or will consider a working livery arrangement, a cob/chunky type gelding 15-15.2hh that would enjoy plenty of turnout, low intensity work in the arena to include a little jumping and fun stuff (always under my teaching) and hacking out in the countryside for variety!
Can offer an experienced, caring home and hold a 5* riding school/animal welfare license, we are also a BHS approved centre.
If you know of a horse that may suit please get in touch as I would prefer to find something local around Hampshire before I head further afield this week. Thanks

There must be the right horse out there somewhere!

No dealers please, no really young horses just been broken!

We are a very genuine family looking for a nice cob,or something chunky around 14.3/15h.
I have owned my horse since the age of 14 and i am now 23 years old and my wonderful cob is going to be 23 this year. It has come to the time for him to slow down after many wonderful years together and such wonderful memories. He is one in a million and he would never go anywhere he is staying with me till the end. I am now looking for another horse to join our family while my boy goes into semi retirement. I am looking for a horse to love and have fun with and to enjoy, go on nice hacks,fun rides, beach ride, fun cross country etc.

I would not like a horse that bucks or rears but i do not mind strong, grumpy, a bit spooky as long as the horse is safe. Maybe a horse that has been part of someones family for a while and they are sceptical about selling as they do not want him/her to end up in the wrong hands.

I am happy to do a short loan with view to buy, to be sure the owners are happy with us or I am happy to come and trial a horse to see if we like each other, the Cash is waiting for the right horse to come along.

I keep my fingers crossed there is a nice cob out there somewhere and i believe in fate! I am fed up with contacting sellers and viewing horses that turn out to be nothing like what is on the advert.

If you think you are able to help and have a nice horse, i look forward to hearing from you

Searching for my teenage daughters next horse. Competent 15 year old looking for a horse to call her own after sharing a horse with her sister! Must be over 15/15.2hh as she is tall. Mare or gelding, age would probably prefer age 9 - 13 years old. Must be happy to live out 24/7. Mainly wanted for daily hacks from our current livery yard, straight out into the forest, occasional fun rides, XC and jumping. She really wants to do more jumping. Not looking for a world beater, but a confidence giver and a kind genuine horse that would enjoy being one of the most pampered and loved horses around!☺️

Happy hacker wanted, older horse fine. Must be solid to hack alone and great to handle. Up to 16hh mare or gelding. We have our own land in Dorset with stables etc. We make our own hay and the horse would want for nothing. Will only be lightly hacked and only a couple of times a week. I am very experienced but as I get older all I want is to be safe! Loan or reasonable price please. We have a mini as a companion.
