Rodney

Meet Rodney

Rodney is ready to find a new home as a non ridden companion. He is a friendly little pony, but quite a cheeky chap and needs a home with someone who has experience of handling strong willed ponies. He is better suited to a home where he will be around and handled by adults only as he needs clear, concise and regular handling . Rodney would benefit from being in a home where he will have continual groundwork to keep his mind occupied. He has been bitted and enjoys being taken out for in-hand walks for a change of scenery. He gets on well with others and is currently living out, but will come into a stable. He is good to catch, groom, bath and for the vet and farrier with a confident handler. Rodney has sweetitch which is managed with a Boet rug and topical treatments when needed. If you can offer Rodney a home, please apply online.

Important stuff

Rodney can never be ridden or driven.

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 Rodney is not suitable to be worked.

History

Rodney came into Penny Farm in December 2020 at only 5 months old, he was found alone, living in a dirty stable in an allotment.
