Meet Paddy (Coco)

Coco is ready to rehome as a non ridden companion. He is a cute, bold little pony, who is generally good to handle and groom although he can still, on occasion, have his stallion like moments with a little bit of nipping. For this reason, we feel he is best suited to an adult only home with an experienced handler. We have found that coco prefers to just have one friend, and struggles in larger groups, so we feel he would be best suited to a quiet, private home, rather than a livery yard. Coco needs his weight watching and has had laminitis in the past prior to coming into us, so will be better suited to a home where he can have his grazing restricted and be with ponies of similar needs. He is currently turned out overnight and comes in during the day. He is good to bath, and for the vet and farrier. Coco will stay on his own in a stable while another pony is taken out. If you can offer Coco a home, please apply online.

Important stuff

All equines in our centres are regularly assessed by a team of experts including a vet, physiotherapist and farrier, and these assessments have found that Paddy (Coco) is not suitable to be worked.

History

Coco came into us underweight and suffering from flu. He was entire on arrival.
