Вставка

- Theodore O'Connor was an eventing Legend. He was an Arabian, Thoroughbred, Shetland cross that stood 14.1 hands tall. He ran head to head with horses twice his size and left them in the dust. He was put down this morning after an accident at David and Karen O'Connor's farm. RIP Teddy! We all love you!

Teddy was such an inspiration. Only 14.1hh and doing this? That's amazing! He helped my 12.2hh pony and I jump 2'9. That may seem small, but for such a small horse, it's HUGE!!! Thank you Theodore O' Connor, RIP.
Best little horse ever
there will be many other great eventing ponies, but none like Teddy, he was a once in a life time pony. Its sad, he was a blessing to the eventing worl. R.I.P Theodore O' Connor
That pony had springs and a heart of gold. Definately a great eventer and well missed
u know what they say...dont let the short legs fool u...with teddy that was never possible...he looked so short but jumped so high...hes a horse that i'll never forget..i luv u teddy.
We love you Teddy!!! RIP!!!!!
You were the best!
Fav tribute so far. Great job. I can't stop cryin ): there have beeen lots of bad things happening , but this is the worst.
Its been so long now and i still feel like it was just yesterday
I admire Teddy alot. I am so sad that he was put down:( The whole world misses that little brown spunky thing. He was the greatest pony ever.
I HAVE HIM IN BREYER =3
he belongs to the most incrediable horses which ever lived ,he will stay in memory of everyone just like a famous race horse or show-jumper ,he is the best example for horsesport and he showed us everything which is worth riding for
So sad he passed away . What a rockstar he was
He is such a little super star.
He just shows that size and breeding mean nothing!
He is an inspiration to all of us who want to make it to the top!
RIP Teddy!
The best things come in small packages!:)
He's so small!! Amazing lil guy!! ♥
I know Karen wishes she had Teddy now, He was our best chance for a medal.
They were out for a hack .He spooked and bolted. He ran off into a barn and severed his tendons and arteries. The vet said the injuries were catastrophic :( :(
Impressive!
rip so sad but i lvoe this song! :) 5 stars!
god karen must have been shattered wat a fabulous little horse and such a horrible way for him to pass :(
sure can see that shetland stamina...my 10hh Shetland out raced my Quarterhorse back to the barn one night..she was like a little greyhound.
Aw... :~(
@SkatesNSaddles
I had been told that he had a full brother that was extremely green (if not completely unbroken) that was for sale.. for extremely cheap too. Doubt it's still for sale but apparently Teddy has some siblings out there to be found!
according to several references Teddy was part welsh.
Teddy + Blink 182 perfect video
what a legend (L)
yeh..max and karen were ridding and karen was riding Mandiba and Max was riding teddy and Karens horse spooked and took off and teddy got scared and took off towards the barn and max jumped off and Teddy slit on the concrete into the side of the barn
pound for pound shetlands are the strongest breed horse/pony in the world. Supersize them to a Belgian and they can haul 3 times more . Mix with a thoroughbred (speed) and Arabian (endurance). Amazing!! I had a Shetland/QH 14 hh she was a powerhouse..free jumped 5ft could do more...
That grey thing was a well like a band-aid but it opened their nostril so
when working very hard they would have no trouble breathing
he died on my birthday :'(
@tobythejumpingpony : Horse. :)
I don't think he sired a foal. He was a gelding...
