Not sure what she is as she’s a rescue but looks like some blood in her but couldn’t say how much!!
She’s 3 and absolute dote after a 6/7 hour drive! Has rolled 3 times so far so seems like she’s enjoying herself ?
I walked her around the field and showed her the water (was very uninterested) loaded and traveled like an angel ??
Didn’t spook at lorries or cars but spooked at a dog bark and she whacked her poor face into my arm ??
She be a companion this year just she was started by the rescue so just going to leave her to chill out and mature for the year
I’m hoping a show jumper but she’s so adorable I don’t mind what! She may end up being too small for me but she’s not going anywhere either way!
Threw the rug on her too in the trailer and she didn’t even bat an eye ?

She doesn't have any trotter in her does she? Probably not, I just wondered as in terms of shape and colour (and laid back personality) she looks very similar to a trotter I used to ride. He was an absolute sweetheart, no thanks his previous owners who had obviously knocked him around. She sounds lovely.

How big is she? She looks like she might be quite light under the rug.

Thank you! I’m unsure as the rescue got her a passport as she didn’t have one before so no idea who her Parents are! All guesses are welcome tho!
she doesn’t seem to move like one but could come in time when it isn’t so snowy

She’s 14.2hh
Do you mean a little underweight? Had a wee look at her in the trailer and was good coverage over her ribs and has a nice wee coat on her but I’d say she didn’t grow a full one as they said she’s been rugged all winter in a 200g
Id say she’s still growing a bit

She is a neater made pony, I think without her rug she looks kinda thoroughbredy doesnt she @JBM

What a lucky pony! She looks lovely.
JBM

Kinda! But I don’t think she’s full tb because her face is definitely bigger than Barry’s little thin face
I would suspect one of her parents were maybe ?

Yes. Make sure you get the rug off tomorrow (if it’s dry) so that you can have a good look and feel of her.

The grand introduction will be happening tomorrow as the road to Judys field was frozen solid ? so mocha was placed in town with some sheepy friends until the roads clear
I myself am also stuck in town!! And can’t get home!

She’s got a lovely look..love her curious pricked ears! ?
A shame the weather has turned for us this week…it threatened snow where i am in the west today but i growled at the sky, and it retreated! (So far)?
Should be southerly milder temps coming friday, so Judy wont have to wait long. They’ll make a lovely pair ?

She's looks like a kind horse. Love the third picture ?.
You have so much snow! We haven't had any at all. Should be greatful really, as have to drive to work tomorrow. (But I do so so so love the crispness, and silence of fresh snow.)

wow you have got it all! Looks pretty though…i love your ‘narnia’ lamp post ?
Im expecting a pallet delivery imminently ..luckily the drivers of these rural roads have nerves of steel! ? They did so well to get Mocha to you today.
My boy when he first saw snow land on the hardcore yard was enthralled by it and did a roll, but he soon got up when he realised it squashed beneath him and the yard was still a hard yard ?

Waffled a lot!
She has a sweet face.
You need to bring her to my horse friendly coffee box (might be a tad far!) we already have a horse called Cappuccino that visits!
