Good luck with your search. How very exciting! Whereabouts in the country are you? Have you contactedany rescue centres?
 
east coast, near philadelphia/baltimore area. i contacted one and they took all my info and got references, and then another - but haven't completed the application... apparently the type of horse i'm looking for goes fast!
 
Oh, I'm in the UK so not much help. I do wish you luck though and hope you find something soon :)

Look forward to the updates!
 
Yes, of course the sort of horse you would like is in great demand. We are not the only Granny riders who want to stay safe. In the UK such horses often change hands through word of mouth, so do keep asking everyone you know and telling people you are horse hunting.

You said you were on the East coast of the US? If you're willing to drive north a bit I would recommend All the Kings Horses Equine Rescue in Connecticut. I volunteered there for a while and they do some really great work. Small place with all sorts of horses and ponies. Good people and reasonable prices! Message me with anymore questions!
