Bobby is very well put together registered miniature Shetland pony, perfect for breeding some lovely little beauties. Whilst being with us at home Bobby has been out in the field alone and in company, as well as with sheep, ducks & hens, stabled or out full time. He's happy around dogs, farm machinery, bikes etc.
He has made a wonderful companion for our competition mare over lockdown who has now gone back to her livery yard, hence our sale.
We're looking for a wonderful home for this little fella to be loved and fully mature at.

Breed Standard
Height - Registered stock must not exceed 40 inches (102 cm) at three years or under, or 42 inches (107 cm) at four years or over. Ponies are measured from the withers to the ground by measuring stick and on a level stance, preferably concrete should be used
Colour - Shetland Ponies may be any colour known in horses except spotted
Coat - The coat changes according to the seasons of the year; a double coat in winter with guard hairs which shed rain and keep the pony’s skin completely dry in the worst weather. By contrast, the summer coat is short and should carry a beautiful silky sheen. At all times the mane and tail hair should be long straight and profuse and the feathering of the fetlocks straight and silky
Head - The head should be small, carried well and in proportion. Ears should be small and erect, wide set but pointing well forward. Forehead should be broad wtih bold, dark, intelligent eyes. Blue eyes are not acceptable. Muzzle must be broad with nostrils wide open. Teeth and jaw must be correct
Hind Legs - The thighs should be strong and muscular with well shaped, strong hocks, neither hooky nor too straight. When viewed from behind, the hindlegs should not be set too widely apart, nor should the hocks be turned in
Fore Legs - Should be well placed with sufficient good, flat bone. Strong forearm. Short, balanced cannon bone. Springy pasterns
Feet - Tough, round and well shaped - not short, narrow, contracted or thin
Action - Straight, free action using every joint and tracking-up well
General - A most salient and essential feature of the Shetland Pony is its general air of vitality (presence), stamina and robustness
