Rescue Pony of The Week Hope Pasture's Rafael


This week's Ponyhour Rescue Pony of The Week is looking for a home, meet Hope Pasture's Rafael:


Rafael is a gorgeous and showy 8 year old grey Welsh Secion A gelding standing at 11.2hh pony.  He is a project pony with lots of work still needed but since arriving with us early in 2015, Rafael has come along really well with many aspects of his handling. 

He is a smart pony and loves his clicker training sessions with his handler India, with who he has come along amazingly.

Rafael really needs a home where his positive reinforcement training will be continued and developed and used to teach him to accept hoof handling and farrier work, de-spooking and confidence being In his own company or that of humans, rather than his herd.

Rafael mixes with other geldings of a similar age, he's an active playful pony who would suit a pony with a similar personality.

We really believe that with regular one to one training and handling from a dedicated trainer Rafael can become a well-educated and socialised pony and this could be a really rewarding foster project pony or ideally one for a forever home to focus on.

Rafael is up to date with his vaccines, he’s microchipped, passported and  wormed up to date.

If you think can offer Rafael a forever home please contact them via their website:
