…preferably in Landes, Pyrenées Atlantiques or Lot et Garonne. Our mare isn’t a good traveller and so if possible under 100km from Dax.
Our mare is an Andalusian/Arab measuring about 1m57 and we would ideally like an ‘end-product’ of around 1m50… I know that product size is by no means an exact science but a stallion with a good temperament of around 1m45 would be ideal.
If anyone knows or has an appropriate stallion, please let me know. Thanks !
Here she is in all her tubby splendour
I hadn’t explored the horse area of SFN - I don’t know if you found your heart’s desire for your mare but the “Landais”" ponies are a good choice and stallions of this breed are plentiful in your area for
classical “mating” there are 3 in the “haras nationaux” in your area - This suggestion is probably too late in the year for you , but it is still possible time wise. You leave your mare there and she is pasture kept for a few days but the stallion is not roaming in the field with the mares - he is held while he does his “duty”. But the “frozen” or “refrigerated” semen also work well as the hormonal state of the mare is checked with a “teasing stallion” before the insemination takes place. Then you can choose the stallion you prefer as the choice is “France-wide”.

LMAO @ Anglo Info impregnating your mare!!! :-)))
Sorry is that Anglo Info?
Hi there
My friend has a few connemara stallions and he is based just outside Pau.
If you want to mail me your requirements I can get him to call you.
Thanks
Martin
He should be able to jab her into season for when the straws arrive though - bit less hassle than driving her away somewhere and drumming your fingers until she’s up for it! 
Could you go down the AI route? It would mean you didn’t have to move her. 
Try Juie Daresse - she’s a Connemara breeder in the 64 near Bayonne. We bought a house off here a couple of years ago and from memory, she had some quite nice ponies around.
