‘Weydown Little Tern’ 2020 | 12.2h | Welsh | Gelding

(Thistledown Arctic Tern x Cottrell Little Nell by Cwrtycadno Cadfridog)

Imported as a weanling from the renowned Weydown Stud in England, Terner has successfully shown on the Welsh circuit earning champion and supreme every time out. He is correct, a beautiful mover with a lofty big stride canter, and temperament to match. Easy 12.2 pedigree measure. He is a gentleman in the barn, great for vet, farrier, clipping, you name it. He would be a top contender as a small pony hunter. Terner has just been started under tack and proves to be kind and professional, eager to please.This little guy is easily a barn favorite, don’t miss out on this special pony!

*What thing do most of our ponies have in common?!

Mares! We love our girls for so many reasons. And okay, a few might also be grey… 🤍❤️

“There’s som**hing different about the way a good mare connects with her rider. It’s special. Like an unspoken agreement. Once a mare chooses you as her person, it’s like she has an instinct to protect you, to fight for you. It’s almost as if she takes ownership of you.
I believe the good mares have a deep sense of intuition. They can read your mind. They know what you’re thinking even before you do. The good mares I know breathe fire in the face of challenge and then somehow, miraculously, know to quiet themselves when a timid child is plopped on their back for a pony ride.

They are clever, cunning and calculated, which can be your greatest enemy or your saving grace. The good mares I know do not tolerate egotistical riding. They do not tolerate force. They demand tact, finesse and emotional control. But once you have won a mare’s heart, you have won all of her. In exchange for your best—and nothing less—she will give you everything.”
