Quiet Dales section A Gelding for sale

[Deleted]

We have a 4 yr old Black section A DALES Gelding for sale. Highclose Chancer (stable name Freddie) has two white socks behind and a few white hairs on his forehead. This pony is only four but he is so calm and sensible it really belies his age. Don't get me wrong, he is not perfect, he is still quite green after all, but he is riding away nicely and has seen a bit of the world and is willing to please his rider and seems to be unfazed by just about everything. He has been superb with the traffic he has already seen; tractors and cars etc.

He is also very easy to do, will live in or out very happily. Good traveller, doesn't mind the vet (whom he has only needed for vaccinations) or the farrier (for trimming as he has never yet had shoes on), is good to clip and hasn't any issues, unless you count how friendly he is as one

We bred this young chap, he is by Waterside Jack out of Colliery Madam and he is a good chunky weight carrying sort who should finish at 14.2hh. He has lovely correct movement. He was backed late last year, then turned away over Winter and he has just been ridden away and schooled lightly this Spring. He is now looking for a new forever home if there is such a thing Please do not be put off by his age, we have older ponies who are much less sensible than he.

Please pass this on to anyone who may be interested and please contact me if you are interested. Thank you

The above photos are courtesy of Debbie Ashby who has been schooling and hacking Freddie for the last few weeks. Debbie says she is happy to speak to anyone interested in Freddie first hand if they are interested in him as she has first hand experience of him. She has done a wonderful job with him and she loves him

I really like him. Love his ears. ;D

[DalesLady]

Pam! There is so much more of him to like than his ears



He really is quiet and keen to please, please don't anyone be put off by his age, I wouldn't say this if it weren't true.

As you know, Penny, I have always liked this pony

We are looking to replace the Haflingers who pull the wedding carriage, after next year (got bookings for that coloured ponies until then, so cannot change before!). Old age, and various problems (Cushings) are sadly making us retire the older ones.

We really want to use Dales, but unfortunately none of ours are big enough, or chunky enough (Oliver, but we will not go there .....!!).as the carriage is heavy.

Have you got another Freddie hidn away, somewhere - he would be the ideal size for our carriage? But obviously we need two, exact same height not essential, but same build would be good .......

LOL you can tell a lot from a pony's ears!

[DalesLady]

Actually Pam, I think you can!


Mair Freddie is the spit of his mother, same build and everything, unfortunately he will be at least an inch taller! And we have only bred two foals since Freddie, Apollo and Misty both 3 this year, and none in the pipeline. Apollo is still with us and Misty now lives near Blackrod
We do however have a super 14.2hh mare with no job to do if you fancy putting her with something - she hates being ridden but would probably drive really well.

This pony really is everything Penny has said, and will be a super family pony/all rounder.

He is gorgeous and has a very sweet expression - someone will be very lucky.

[DalesLady]

Thanks Jane. He is a super boy, loving and kind and exceptionally willing to please. He will make someone a perfect pony and he will turn his lovely big round hooves to anything.

If only I had the money....
He really sounds perfect for me! Not too small, and nice and chunky. I do need that! Not because I'm heavy, but because of my long legs! LOL

[harry12]

what is it you are after for him? and where is he situated?
What weight is he up to carrying?

thanks

[DalesLady]

I am not ignoring you Harry12, but I think this pony is now sold. I am awaiting transfer etc., then I will know for sure.
