Gem Puddledub Pony

Meet Gem Puddledub Pony

Puddledub or Puddles as he is often called is a striking appaloosa gelding who is ready to find a new home as a companion. Puddledub may take a little time to feel comfortable in his new home but once he does he is a lovely older gentleman who adores cuddles. He is strictly a non-ridden companion as he’s an older boy and has a sway back meaning that he is unsuitable to be ridden. Puddledub is more than happy to live the quiet life and enjoy his golden years in a loving new home. Puddledub stands well for the vet and farrier but does need to be led in a bridle as he can get strong in stressful situations. Once given time to settle into a new home he should be happy to lead in a headcollar. He is a very friendly chap who slots into a herd well and will happily mix with mares or geldings. Puddledub becomes extremely stressed if left alone and isn’t overly keen on spending a lot of time in a stable so is happiest when out full time. He may require a rug during the winter months. Puddledub doesn’t need his grazing restricted so is best suited to living with other large horses. If you think this lovely gelding sounds right for you, please apply online.
