Shetland Pony

The Shetland pony is probably the strongest horse relative to its size. Because of its small size it was used in the past in coal mines. It is found now all over the world as a domesticated horse. After 7 years of non breeding situation, we introduced a new female pony (Fani) to our pony couple. It is incredible what a presence of a foreign woman can do! Mariolinos and Rosa mated immediately and on the 5th of October, 2010 Rosa gave birth to a wonderful foal, Filippos.
