Pistachio

Meet Pistachio

Pistachio is an an adorable little youngster and it is heartbreaking to know he was abandoned at only 6 to 8 months old. Despite being such a tiny little scrap on arrival at Hall Farm, Pistachio is developing into a lovely young man with quite a character. He has a very sweet nature with a bit of a cheeky side! So far he has been a quick learner and he is generally good to handle for his age. Due to his young age, we are primarily looking for a companion home for Pistachio, although he does have the potential to be backed to ride in the future when he is old enough. We are looking for a knowledgeable home with a person who has experience of youngsters and if he is backed in the future, someone who has experience with producing ponies to ride. Potential rehomers must be aware Pistachio must not be worked in any way (including lunging and long reining) until he is at least 4 years old. Pistachio may reach an adult height of 13.2hh although this is only an estimate as we have no information on his breeding. If Pistachio is ridden in the future he will have a maximum rider weight limit of 7.5 to 8 stones.

Important stuff

Pistachio could be worked in the future.
