Say hello to Simmy!
Simmy is a 10.3hh, 4 year old, roan cob who is ready to find his home as a non-ridden companion.
Simmy is looking for a perfect partner who he can trust and build a bond with, showing him the love a one to one home can bring. He has grown in confidence extremely quickly since being with us at Bransby Horses and we feel he would really thrive in a home.
He would benefit from a home where he can continue to learn about the world and have his brain engaged by in-hand activities. As Simmy has always had a high worm burden he will need a foster who will make sure to poo pick daily and continue to be on a strict worming program.
Simmy is a friendly gelding who loves attention, though due to his young age Simmy can sometimes forget his boundaries, he does listen when being told to back up and stand but will need consistency in his handling to help him progress.
