Here is my sweet shetland pony, he is 11 months old and I've named him Cherub. He follows me around

like a pup, I am totally besotted with him

I am new to the world of horses so please be patient with me. Travis, is my shetland pony a 'modern' or a

'classic'??? I have looked at so many photos of both the modern and the classic shetland and quite frankly I

am still at a loss as to what category my pony falls under. Some photos of classics that I have seen basically

look like a miniature horse and yet I have seen photos of moderns that also look more like miniature horses;

I stumbled upon one website that shows the 'classics' to be shorter in the leg and more like my pony but that's

the only website that I have found to describe the classics as looking like shetlands, most other photos that I

have seen appear to be more like miniature horses; I was always under the impression that shetlands had

a heavier set look about them.....

Hi,

Adam, I just love your horses....I just have to ask - is China Doll a shetland pony or a miniature horse?
China Doll is a 32" shetland - her parents are both in the process of being hardshipped, so she will be AMHR registered as well.

Thanks for the comments on my kids - we love them all!
 
Adam, in a couple years that stallion of yours Grassmere's Jazz Singer just might have to have a date with my filly ;). I remember seeing pictures of him a few months ago but could not remember who owned him. I looove him!

Definitely keep him in mind! We have a few mares bred to him for 2008 and we are SOOOO excited. We will be standing him to only a few outside mares each year.
 
Oh I have admired the Moderns for a long while, just never really committed to them since there aren't that many at all here in southern California.

I've switched and sold my minis, to get the Moderns.

Currently I have:

Country's Etched With Class (HOF) my senior mare by National Grand Champion modern halter "Michigan's Rambo HOF"

MB's Aftershock, 2007 colt by National Grand Champion fine harness "The Duke Of Royal Manor"

And my newest modern, she's not here yet...

Perfection Of Brush Creek, who is a Ramble Ridge Rocket granddaughter on both sides

I am excited to show them all in Modern Pleasure this coming year. I am having a LOT of fun with the Moderns and I'm looking forward to learning as much as I can about them. They are WAY more horse than the minis, make the minis seem boring...

I only own one Shetland right now but because of her I have fallen in love with the breed and hope to have another one soon. This is my 37" ASPC/AMHR mare, Sonara's Little Exotica. She is on my show string for next year.

This is Bristol El Dorado, our senior stallion.
