This is Kenny. He’s a big solid type and would make a great hunter / eventer / allrounder. He was backed and broken last year as he is so big we left him to mature and he is now ready to start some proper work. He was a dream to break and accepted a rider without any issues. He has been out hacking, and did an intro dressage test last year but is very green and needs an experienced rider to bring him on. Kenny has had the winter off as he’s kept at home and I have no riding facilities.

This horse came to me as a 2 year old from Ireland and was very nervous and scared. We have worked wonders with him and I can do anything with him now (except pick up back feet but we’re nearly there) he is however very suspicious of new people and it will take him some time to get to know and trust a new person.

All the work I have done with him has been with positive reinforcement and I’m looking for someone who will work in a similar way. If your a pressure and release person it won’t work with this horse. He has learned to make better choices by working things out for himself and has responded incredibly well to this method.

Kenny’s ideal home is someone who is calm and patient, prepared to put some work in and in no rush to get results. He’s not a suitable candidate to buy bring on and sell on to make a quick profit. If you take the time with this horse he will repay you with deep trust and affection and he will look after and protect you!

Kenny has excellent breeding and grandsire is Clover Hill so should have a good pop on him! He respects electric fencing, can be turned out with mares or geldings but not miniature horses! He chases them. He is currently stabled at night and is happy being in or out, loads like a pro in a lorry or trailer. Has never been clipped and feet are work in progress. He now pick up fronts happily and hinds are coming along nicely. He’s obviously had a bad experience with his feet as a youngster.

I’m in no rush to sell this gorgeous boy and the correct home is a priority over any price. I’m asking £3,800 but will be open to offers for the right home. Tack and rugs available under separate negotiation. Would consider LWVTB locally with a contract in place.
