| We
have sold countless Dartmoor ponies to parents who had previously
purchased another breed for their child, only to find that they
soon lost their nerve.
Without fail, the feedback we have
received after a few months of owning a Dartmoor has been 'My child
has completely regained his/her confidence. How I wish I had purchased
a Dartmoor first!'
You can find a selection of ponies
in our 'For Sale' section. One or two of these will be just safe
and honest children's ponies who your child can love and have a
wonderful time with at Pony Club and small shows. Most will make
into super stars but only with the correct training and presentation
will they excel in the show ring. So much will depend on the rider
and the way the pony goes to get to the top, most of our ponies
have the conformation and ability to get there, we can provide the
foundation for you to build on, but as I always say it all depends
on the owner/rider as to how far the pony gets.
We seldom have ponies ready to go
directly into the limelight under saddle, we are breeders, not producers
of ridden ponies and although our ponies have a very good grounding
they need to go on to get experience and to be schooled, we, just
do not have the time to do this ourselves, and there are several
professional producers who do specialize in schooling and producing.
However if there is someone out there with a good track record who
would like to have youngster on loan to have a bit of fun with and
then sell on commission we might consider it
Our
ponies are natural jumpers, and they do not get 'fizzed up'. One
of the Dartmoors we exported from this Stud became top jumping pony
of all France and we have a stallion in France at the moment who
is siring many top jumpers and has been recognized by the Arras
and approved as a top sire of performance ponies for crossing with
other breeds.
