| Tarquin. 15.1 ArabxWelsh. 33 year. D.O.B 1977 . Grey Gelding. |
| Tarquin has been with his owner for 25 years. He is looking for a home that can continue giving him the care and attention he deserves. Tarquin has arthritis which is managed in the cold months with anti-inflamitories. His arthritis causes him to stumble sometimes though he still has the occasional canter round his field and enjoys playing with the other horses. Tarquin would benefit from a level field and good grazing. Tarquin lives out happily during the summer months and comes in the evenings during the winter. He has no vices. He is good for the farrier and is happy around children. Tarquins owner is happy to contribute towards his day to day needs if necessary If you can offer Tarquin a loving retirement home, preferably in the Surrey area, please contact the V.H.S Situated in Surrey |

| Prince, 14.3hh, 21y/o, Welsh Section D |
| Prince is looking for an experienced riding home. He is a warm, friendly, talented horse whose potential is not being used to its full. He requires a confident rider as he can become strong when excited. He has been out of regular work for 6 months. Although easy to handle on the ground in general, he is often reluctant to load, but once in a trailer he travels well. He can ride out well alone but also enjoys company. He is prone to mites in his feathers in the summer, but apart from that has no medical problems. He is excellent for the Farrier, when having his teeth checked and when being groomed. At present, he is stabled at night because his companion is stabled and they make a fuss if one is in and one is out! Prince has been wormed regularly under the worming programme from the vet, has regular visits from the Farrier, an annual ‘dentist’ visit and is up to date with his vaccinations. |

| Bubbles is fully retired. She is an ex-ridding school pony. She was retired due to a small lump on her spine, this dose not hinder her in any way. She is a good nanny to any youngster and has spent the past few years baby sitting. She is easy to do in all respects. A very kind field company for any horse. |

| VHS Hamilton 26 year old 15.2hh Grey Welsh x |
| Hamilton is a stunning flea bitten grey horse. He has had a difficult past and has undergone slow behavioural rehabilitation in order to regain his trust in humans. He is much more accepting now but requires quiet, firm handling to ensure he does not slip back into old habits. Hamilton would be best suited to a one to one relationship on a small yard. He is a very special boy who needs a very special and understanding home that will meet his needs - in return, he will give a lot of pleasure to the right person. |
