Two Dartmoors for sale - SOLD

DARTMOOR YOUNGSTERS

We have 2 Dartmoor geldings, 2 year olds, who are looking for new homes. £150.00 each

Both these ponies were bought at Chagford pony sales last year. We had hoped to train them to drive, but with our advancing years and loss of help to do this, we sadly have to find new homes for them.

They spent last winter in a 30 acre run on the edge of Dartmoor , so they have developed very well, they are tough and sure footed. We have now had them back to home for just over a month, and they are now very sociable ponies. We can catch them, lead them about, pick out their feet and brush them all over. They have also had a saddle on their back and a bit in their mouth.

Although one looks grey in the photo, they are both dun, and should make a lovely pair of ride and drive ponies.

For further details, please contact John & Maggie Arden

Yearlings for sale in West Yorkshire

Violet
Violet is a bit of an ugly duckling at the moment but I know once she has shed her winter coat she will become a beautiful swan! Again,she came from the Drift sales in October 08 and has had an uncertain time since then. She is very shy and frightened of people at the moment but is currently stabled with Vixen and feel once they are separated she will come on in leaps and bounds as at the moment Vixen bosses her about a bit! She stands at about 9hh, possibly more at the moment so I should think she would make around 12hh.
Her Passport name is "Shapley 10" but I thought Violet suited her better and she has gotten to know her name now! The prefix of her name again is a known commoner breeder name on the Hill.Violet is to turn 1 in June.




















Vixen
She is a Shetland type Dartmoor Hill. She came from the Drift sales in October 08 and has had an uncertain time since then. She is a lovely little girl and can be led on a headcollar and lead rope but she needs more practice. She will pick her feet but again I haven't pushed this as I wanted to gain trust and not try to much at once. She is wormed up to date.
Her Passport name is Vixen Beryl and am told that this prefix is a known Commoner breeder name in Dartmoor. Vixen has just turned 1 in April.



















Vince

Vince is a loveable character who just wants fuss and attention! He is an adorable little man who I feel would be a great childs pony. He is headcollar broken, lifts his feet and can be touched all over. He LOVES being groomed and will stand all day and let you ! He came with Vixen and Violet from a not so nice place and is just wanting a secure home where he has a lot of love and turnout!
He is up to date with worming and is around 10 months old.
















£150

Various Dartmoor Hill Ponies

Various Dartmoor Hill Ponies bred by Lloyd Mortimer. All ponies are very friendly though not been halter trained, the DPTC can help with this if required. All are boys and have been gelded and all of them are very inquisitive so wouldn't take long to become fully handled.

Price £150 or reasonable offers, contact The Dartmoor Pony Training Centre for more information on 01364 654609, dartmoorponytrainingcentre@yahoo.co.uk

These ponies were due to go for conservation grazing which is why they did not go to the sales at the end of last year, unfortunately the arrangement fell through and so the DPTC are helping to sell them.

So far two of the ponies have names! Quaker the chestnut below is a very sweet handsome pony

































































And Wizard who is very confident around people.
