Cobalt

Companion

Say hello to Cobalt!

Cobalt is looking for a home as a non-ridden companion!

When first meeting Cobalt, you could be mistaken in thinking that nothing phases this sweet boy, however under the bold and brave exterior, Cobalt can be a little more nervous than he lets on; needing some reassurance in new and unfamiliar settings. He is extremely affectionate and will seek you out in the field for some good scratches and fuss. Due to his young age, he would benefit from someone with experience in bringing out the best in youngsters with firm boundaries so that he continues on his path to becoming a well mannered gentleman.

More information:

Description – Cobalt is a rising 2 year old, 11.2hh, grey, Welsh gelding. 

Stabling/Shelter – Cobalt lives out 24/7 with access to a shelter, and has experienced being stabled for short periods of time. This is something which would need to be worked on in a home. 

Companionship – Cobalt has lived with both mares and geldings. He is a playful boy so would benefit from a companion who would be happy to engage in a game or two, as well as show him the ropes and take him under their wing.  

Forage/Feed – No hard feed given and he is currently on good grazing while he continues to developt and grow. Once he has matured he may need restricted grazing to appropriately manage his weight. 

Rugs –  N/A

Feet – Cobalt is barefoot and trimmed 6 weekly. He is generally good for the farrier, however due to his age he can become a little fidgety and impatient toward the end. 

Dentist – Sedated as standard Bransby Horses procedure. 

Vet-  Cobalt has historically suffered with locking stifle and has received some physiotherapy for this. Since living in a more active herd he has not displayed any instances of this. Due to Cobalt’s conformation, he can not be ridden.
