Quarterhorse X, 16 yo gelding

Leda from Loburn

Quarterhorse X, 16 yo gelding

15.3 HH approx

Lovely gentle natured chestnut white blaze

We have owned Griffen for nine years.

Reason for selling: owner at Uni now.

Excellent references.

Excellent second horse. He has a lovely gentle nature, very easy to handle. No issues floating, shoeing, teeth etc. He has no issue holding weight. Gets along with any other horse. He is not forward going. He is not nervous. He is sound, no vices, nice paces. Also Western trained.

Fantastic riding alone, riding in a small group, great on the road and at the beach.

Griffen does tend to be on the forehand. Griffen gets a little excited riding in a large group because he wants to be in the front.

Griffen has been a great horse for Pony Club. My daughter went to Okuku Pony Club for a few years.

Griffen has been to several One Day Events, and a few Shows. My daughter is not competitive but would always end up with a good result.

Griffen has been out of work for three years now. My daughter has been riding him occasional and Griffen was always nice to ride. He will be dearly missed.

He has been out for training in the Easter Holidays.
He was very well behaved.

We have owned Griffen for nine years and he has never had a health issue. No sore back. His teeth have been done regularly.

Griffen would make an ideal farm horse, hacking - trekking horse or casual Pony Club horse. Quarter horse X, but never been raced.

His gear will be for sale separately.

We live in North Loburn.

Price: $2,500

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
