Adverts for this page should be sent to Doug Joiner, Chair of the BHL. At the moment this service is free to all. The BHL offer this service for the information and benefit of its members and to assist in the sale of useful working horses and equipment. Nothing listed here has been checked by the BHL and the BHL accepts no responsibility for the suitability or soundness of the item for sale. Take special care when considering a continental bred horse. They are often excellent and come highly recommended but sometimes the farriery practice relies on the use of stocks and one or two purchasers have found it extremely difficult to teach a fully grown Ardenne to lift its feet. Docking is still commonly carried out in parts of Europe so check your horse has a tail. It is illegal to import a docked horse unless it is for breeding so a gelding is absolutely illegal. Check oedema on any Belgians or other imported horses. Leg problems are endemic and oedema can lead to handling difficulties, ulcers and cancer. It is manageable but not curable. Take worming seriously with imported horses as they are often kept with one eye on the meat market and the worms may well be advanced and difficult to remove. Novice owners also take care. A 'green broke' horse that goes well in experienced hands may not go so well in novice or inexperienced hands. Take advice, take care, seek help and support and avoid short cuts. "Caveat emptor" If you put something on the web site and then sell it I would like to know, also if you enquire and find the item sold I would like to know as well. Doug. |
The BHL is launching a new venture at its Progress Events and other get togethers.

clyde x cob 8 yr old gelding "Shamus". 14.2 heavy weight good bone and a good neck, broken to chains 2 years ago, and happy to work as a pair. . Great temperment, he is also ridden. The only thing he doesn't much like is going into a ring eg. for competition, he gets a little excited but does settle down after a few mins, saying that he has only been to competition twice. He isn't the brightest lad around slow to learn but he is very willing and will work all day without question. Sensible offers are welcome.
