IHRP Leroy

Mixed Breed · Male

Sex: Gelding Age: Rising 3 Height: Approx 123cm This lovely pony is a 3-year-old gelding standing at approximately 123 cm, with a genuinely kind and laid-back temperament. Leroy arrived with us clipped and shod, which would suggest he has previously been broken to drive, although this cannot be guaranteed. He has settled well and continues to improve with a consistent routine. He is a friendly, easy-going pony who enjoys human company and takes new situations in his stride. Leroy is straightforward to handle and a pleasure to have around, showing a calm and uncomplicated attitude to daily care. Leroy does display a mild burping habit, (we don’t like to call it windsucking!) which is steadily improving as he settles, benefits from turnout, and leaves his previous life behind. This has already reduced noticeably with time and routine. Key details: 3-year-old gelding Approx. 123 cm Believed previously broken to drive Outstanding, kind temperament Very laid-back attitude Easy to handle and manage Improving steadily with routine and care Leroy would thrive in a calm, knowledgeable home where his quiet nature can continue to develop at a gentle pace.

About IHRP Leroy

What life with IHRP Leroy looks like

IHRP Leroy is an adult mixed breed horse waiting at Irish Horse Rehoming Programme in Bagenalstown, Co. Carlow.

Adopting a horse is a long-term commitment that almost always requires either land or a boarding stable. The shelter will discuss the horse's training level, vet history, and what kind of work or companionship they're suited for. Expect ongoing costs: feed, farrier, vet, and stabling.

🇮🇪Adopting from Ireland

Paperwork, vet checks and transport rules differ by species and by country. Ask the shelter what is included and what you will need to arrange before you commit.

Frequently asked

Adopting IHRP Leroy, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about IHRP Leroy?: Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Irish Horse Rehoming Programme handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw IHRP Leroy on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt IHRP Leroy if I live in another country?: Sometimes. Whether a horse can move between countries depends on the species and the rules in both countries, and some species need permits or have restrictions. Ask Irish Horse Rehoming Programme what paperwork and transport they require, and check the import rules of your country before you commit.
Is IHRP Leroy already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?: What a horse comes with (vet checks, vaccinations, identification, paperwork) varies by shelter and species. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask Irish Horse Rehoming Programme directly what is included and what IHRP Leroy still needs.
What happens if IHRP Leroy isn't the right fit?: Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Irish Horse Rehoming Programme early rather than rehoming privately; they know IHRP Leroy and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?: TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically.
