Contact one of the rescue centres. An oldie (without cushings or lami) might be perfect. Some of them need more food to keep the weight on.

Been looking myself for a shettie to 13hh mare, there is nothing at all in the rescue centres in the south of england in that size & sex - unless you take on an under 3 (and thats not what I'd been looking for at all) and believe you me, I've phoned them all - and also been into a few places to double check
So - I am jumping on Holidays_are_coming's bandwagon (ok, thread, sorry Hac) to also ask the same question.
Am NW Surrey, plenty of paddocks, good company, stables & field shelters - space for 1 to join 1 who likes company. Would even consider offering bloody good (negligable) livery instead if someone wanted it..... (tho the companion must not go out without big Fuzzy
) Hence the need for 1 to really loan/buy etc....

Exactly the same situation as you DaisyDoll. It seems like all the surplus ponies are north of Birmingham! LOL

Isn't there anything on here.
This site always upsets me with the oldies looking for new homes

What about a 12.2 rideable bay mule gelding...Yes i said a mule alittle shy until he knows you, but loves to have his bum scratched ! Lives out 24/7, unshod, good doer, not rugged or a 4yr old reg welsh sec a gelding, again rideable, easy to do, lives out 24/7, unrugged, unshod. Both have never been sick or sorry. We are on the Northants/Cambridgeshire border. If interested pm me for details/pics etc...

Hi
I have a 20 month old welsh section D gelding that I am trying to sell as I dont have the time or finances for him at the moment. I would consider a loan as a companion to someone though for 1 - 2 years until he is ready to back.
He is a really easy friendly pony (with humans and horses), lives in or out.
If anyone is interested let me know.

Approx 11.2hh, 3yr old (?), Shetland X. Not sure how much she would want for him, but he would make a lovely companion!
Yorkshire area. PM if anyones interested & I'll let her know

Thx for the link Rockysmum, but I cannot look on there again
its too sad that animals aged 30+ are to be re-homed now they are unable to be ridden, with arthritis, have sweet-itch etc Have had lovely offer from someone on here, & we'll be in contact in the new year - even if mnmnm is miles away
