Bobbie
Meet Bobbie
Bobbie is a timid young man who can be wary of new things. This is to be expected as he had not much handling in the past and is still very young. Bobbie tends to worry inwardly but with some quiet reassurance he is growing in confidence daily. He will require an experienced handler to gently guide him, and give him time to process new things, without rushing him. Bobbie is a bright, playful chap who normally finds himself in the middle of the pecking order in the herd. Bobbie may have the potential to be backed to ride for a small child only as he is unlikely to be more than 12.0hh when fully grown. If ridden he will have a maximum rider weight limit of 4.5 to 5 stones. We are equally happy for him to remain as a non ridden companion to another pony with similar dietary requirements. As Bobbie was recently castrated it would be wise if he shares with geldings only until his hormones have settled down. With a regular routine Bobbie should blossom into a lovely young pony.
