Older calm horse for 8 year old
Permalink   
I am looking for a calm older horse, that is smaller in stature, at the most 14 hands or so. It is for an eight year old little girl.

We have had many older rescue horses that we have 'adopted' and cared for over the past 20 years. We currently have an Arabian and a
Thoroughbred, and though they are well trained, they are too spirited for her to handle.

We need a small horse that has a personality, and isn't on its last legs.

We can not afford to pay a fortune for another horse, especially when we have come to find out that there are many that just need a loving home, and that we can provide.

We have a 50 acre farm, with rolling hills of green pasture, as well as facilities to keep the horses sheltered.

I appreciate the time you have put into reading this request, and I look foward to hearing from you.

Thanks

Grace

I have an older very calm horse that has been ridden by my son and his cousins.. ages 6-10.  He is a bit larger than your request  15'2h approx.  He is not on his last legs....he is sound and very gentle.  His only problem is that he has moon blindness - so he needs a little extra care because he can't see at night.  We either put him in his stall at night or in a small paddock/pasture that he is very familiar with.  If you are interested,  would need to know more about you....where you are located? do you blanket your horses in the winter?  By shelter, do you mean stalls or run-in sheds? etc.  I am looking to find him a great forever home because we have too many horses. 
I look forward to hearing from you,
Deb

I have an 18 year old horse that has been giving riding lessons since she was 5, and she is in great health, I may be willing to lease her for a time, if that is something you are interested in doing?

I have an 18 year old mare that has been giving riding lessons to children since she was 5 years old. She is still in great health, and has proven herself to be wonderful around children, I would possibly be willing to lease her, if it is not too far from me, and I can bring myself to do it.
