The new addition to my gang he's on loan for D to ride so I can have Jess back! 17 yo, about 12hh chunky heinz 57 pony who did 9 years in a riding school prior to his current home. We fetched him Friday night by means of sticking D on to ride him the 2 miles home with her mum and I as foot soldiers.
Currently they are seperated as Jess is very protective of Hank, first night she was running the fence seeing him and hank off to put herself in the middle constantly
But there is quite the bromance developing already between the boys after D and her friend taking turns on him yesterday the dads got in to give him a good hose down
He's no plod and has a couple of little evasions he tries (snatching the reins and a little nappy going out alone but only stops and looks back) but is generally a nice sort. Aparently driven before the riding school and has scars from rolling a cart but still OK to drive when his current owner tried him last year. This morning Hank was standing guard while jess and harry slept, I wasn't quite quick enough with my camera though
I'm hoping to put them in together tonight so long as its all still chilled after I've worked them all.
