Discovering the New Forest Pony
I initially didn’t have a particular breed in mind. I just wanted something young to bring along myself, with gaits for dressage, and large enough to fit my 5’3 frame. I posted some inquiries on Facebook and received a message from Lesley Feakins at Trevelyan Farm, a New Forest Pony breeder, who had a 4-year-old for sale. Wishbone was a 14 hand bay gelding, who was cute as a button and had a great hind leg. I decided to take a leap of faith and bought him sight unseen.

He was full of personality, and was super willing , especially for only being three years old. As soon as I rode him I knew I had to have him, so I called my vet to set up a pre-purchase exam. A week later we did his exam and he passed with flying colors! I was thrilled to finally have a horse after a long year of saving and searching.
