Yes, and he is my boy Cheveyo , since 11 years now. He is black and white with blue eyes. He lives with my Quarter Horse Cheyenne on our property. He is the sweetest pony and gives great back scratches. I love him to bits.
My first pony was a shetland and I hold her memory in my heart. She was wonderful with us kids and always looked after us. Where ever we went she was there and happy to be with us. Her name was Dimples, white with a few grey dots on her that I called her happy dimples because as a small child, it made me happy to see her. I was 6 and asked my grandfather for a pony for my birthday. He bought her from another farm where she was left in a pasture for several years , she was in bad shape. But with a lot of love and a good vet to help, we got her on the right path and fell into place among us kids where she would never be alone again. Shetlands are amazing ponies.
Cuteness over load to the max. It was amazing to see how relaxed and tolerant the mares were with their foals being around people as well. Such a lovely breed 🥰
I was very lucky to have a Shetland when I was young. And, yes, super smart. She was an escape artist… and even ended up in the local police station once.
My Uncle raised Shetlands. He said ponies get a bad rap bc people don't train them like horses. They treat them like toys. His herd sire was my cousin's mount when she was a kid. He went in the house, raided the kitchen & left tracks on the carpet! On a regular basis! None of them were mean or stubborn. They were raised right...
Too often, they were smarter than their humans, and will take over and run things if allowed😊. I have raised Miniatures for 28 years, which are Shetlands that were imported many years ago, and when the market crashed over here the smallest were rebranded as Miniature Horses and all kinds of tales made up to distance them from their real roots. I can't live without them. Loving, intelligent, they absolutely are the best therapy as she said! I wish there was a way to get their Shetland papers back, to honor the heritage.
Look at that filly invasion - absolute cuteness! Shetland Ponies are everywhere in Germany, too. I just remember it was mostly the Shetlands that went through the fences - while gracing or with a rider 😂
I am 55 years old and still potty about shetland ponies!!.A life long love for these gorgeous little bundles of fun.I absolutely loved watching this.Thankyou xxxxxx
Very Nice! What a Dream come true for all the little horse lovers taking care of their little Shetlands. I don't think you ever grow out of that Awe and Love for these Shetlands. I can remember a very long campaign I kept up for years with my parents about why I needed a Shetland Pony and how he could live in our huge back yard plus he could run free in the Alfalfa fields out back. To make matters worse, there was a book called "Hopscotch" about a Shetland Pony who did live in a little girls back yard. So I used that for proof of why I NEEDED that Shetland Pony 😂 this was the best ever video. I love the baby ponies all runnin about in the green fields of Scotland and their very Blessed owner is so right, "this is Heaven." Oh yes. It absolutely is 🐴💝🌞🙆🐎 May the Sun shine Warm Upon your Face ~ Wild Irish Blessings to you 🍀
My mother is a dedicated breeder of these little rascals so I've grown up with them all around me. A shetland pony's personality varies completely between individuals, some are super high spirited and jumpy while others are so calm they would barely mind a bomb exploding right next to them! But generally speaking they're very cuddly, smart and stubborn. They're commonly used for kid's riding and competing, which they're the perfect size for, but also for activities like agility. Though often handled by kids shetlands are no beginner horses. They are smart and will test you and if you can't handle them when they do they won't listen to you. Shetland foals are really mischievous and will most likely eat your shoes if you don't watch your back. 😅 And at other times they'll practically lay in your lap. Once you've gotten to know a shetland it can quickly become your best friend and it will be significantly easier to work together.
Shetland Ponies love people! They are wonderful little characters. I fell in love with mine as a young colt. I was riding past a field where a stud grazed some of their ponies(colts and geldings to sell on). I met the stud owner and all of the foals, mares, stallions...but my pony was the 1 I was in love with! (Not all were for sale! ) He celebrated his 34th Birthday this week! I feel truly blessed to have him in my life. He is delightful. 🐎💖
I so agree with that breeder. I have met so many spoilt rotten Shetland ponies. Bought for little kids cos they’re cute and tiny, they quickly learn to terrorise their riders, because they’re strong, and smart, and without adult supervision, they’ll run roughshod over kids unless they’re trained otherwise. I’ve been bitten and kicked by more shetlands than any other horse/pony, in particular one called Marshmallow, a fat white fluffball who was sweet as his namesake until you wanted him to do something that he didn’t want to. That’s when you understood that a Shetland pony is just as stubborn as any donkey, and can throw tantrums to rival any toddler lol
I'm Scottish and nuts about horses so it's just delightful that we're home to the huge strong Clydesdale and also the small (but strong) Shetland Pony as well as a couple other breeds. You look like you had a blast which makes me so happy to see :) You might appreciate this too! Did you know our national animal is the unicorn? I know right? Are we lucky or what?
This was 😂 a major overload of cuteness for Shetland ponies and they have the stamina and the heart of champions can be cantankerous and clever but never a coward
The first year I went to EQ summer camp as a small 6 year old my horse was a Shetland pony named Spitfire. She was so much fun and learning on her was some of my favorite childhood memories. I def plan to get a Shetland in the future as a companion horse as well as to do some light chores and tricks with.
You have the best job ever. I learnt to ride on a 4yr old shetland who was blind in one eye. Dad gave me Sooty and told me to 'get on with it' no instruction nothing. The pony bucked, stopped dead, scraped me off on fences everything to get me off. Once I learned how to stick on he stopped and was an ace pony. I was 11 yrs old.
The Irish and Scottish brought ponies with them to work in mines in western Pennsylvania and West Virginia. There was a pony farm right across the street from where I grew up in Pittsburgh. We used to ride them when the farmer wasn't looking.
What an delight visit in a meadow full of the cutest and most naughty/ misschievious lil big breed, I looove Shetties, first pony in my life was an shetland pony, Pascha, looooong ago (70's somewhere ;). You are so lucky that you visit there, also awesome owners/ breeders, such humor and I love the scottisch language. Your's are such lovely comments towards Yvonne. Coincidence or not, I had this video in my recommends, haha Yvonne has only 3 shetties and the breed is lovely. I love their misschievious natures and the fact that Yvonnes foal Spidey plays with their young female Rothweiler is so natural. Before her accident she called him her little monster, lol. Nice to meet you here, I'm Yvonnes head moderator and had visit Stal G in july 2021 wich is on video ( we did an livestream Q&A then. Linda MOD👋😘👍🇳🇱
I used to own a shetland miniature pony called the handsome stranger. He had a good personality and would always open bins with his mouth that were full of apples.
I remember when my sister's Shetland Pony gave birth. Suddenly the foal was just there, in her stable. But seeing as it was a home made stable the Fjord next to it could stick it's head over the rail to look at it. The mother was not pleased by this at all. We would have let her out, but the weather was terrible at that time and it was the middle of the night. The next day though, it was running around her mother, playing and trying to figure out why her mother wanted the fjords to stay as far away as possible. Edit: As to their stubborness ane cleverness. . . I also remember when mother and daughter got out and ran away. Just at a slow enough trott for me to keep up. And they made me chase them some 2-3 kilometers down the road. Running flat out as fast as I could. Luckily they took pitty on me eventually, stopped and let me take them back home by the scruff of their hair. And they were very kind when I did this, so it wasn't so much pulling as just holding their hair as they walked beside me. They are clever, naughty but also very personable creatures. =)
Hello again All the cuteness sweetness and all other of such wonderfulness like I've never thought possible!! All things are such when babies but not so much the same feelings when the smallness is gone. But these sweeties stay small!! What a lifetime bonus! The bad rap on them is real and too bad because here it is verified they are smart loyal kind and cuddley and results are all in the handling raising and training. Like children or other creatures you get back out what you put in. A great surprise is their strength and versatility even to include adult riding. Many thx for another wonderful episode. A terrific series for sure. Catcha next one.
Yes! Here is the link to the Waler episode: ua-cam.com/video/kQxhuMcfAHo/v-deo.html Haha, I was not there in summer, but I did hear stories about the heat!
I rode a pony one summer that was a Shetland Connemara cross. He was lovely. His name was Con Man. I love Shetland ponies and hope to own a few one day.
I learned a lot about this breed when I took care of a shetland mare. The mare was not fed by the owner in the Netherlands. I had to go on bicycle for about 8 kilometers to feed her once or twice a week. The pony was very tame, I could sit on the ground behind her, she did not kick me. She got very excited when she saw me. I gave her hay and something called BIX in NL.Also fresh water. I also cleaned her abri(shelter). People threw stones at her, I noticed because the stones where not there before. Later I saw the pony in a park in Tiel NL. Ponies must be kept with other ponies, people do not realise.
❤️ your care... expect your socialising with him and giving him food enabled him to realise not all people are horrible and therefore the next owners were not put off by a terrified malnourished pony. 🙌 to you.
I love shetland ponies! They're everywhere in Sweden. You look so good on every horse and I was super curious if you would actually ride them for this video =) you did it great
My introduction to horses was the Shetland when I was 12. It was at a carnival and we went around in a circle but I was lost. lol It was a good lil pony and that was back in 84. >.> I just dated myself lol.
I have family living in Shetland. We visited last year (I live on mainland Scotland). It was an amazing trip, I loved all of it, but one of the best parts was the Shetland ponies everywhere. Their faces are SO SOFT! They’re so beautiful.
Wow, I didn't realize you could actually ride Shetland ponies! What an adorable revelation. The foals were especially cute. They seem like they must've been the size of large dogs.
I think if you’re over five feet five you would have trouble with balance, and there’s a certain weight limit you should be, like 50kg or you can harm the pony
@@skayt35 even though Shetland ponies used to carry grown men all day, today we have a better understanding of the horses skeleton and more awareness of how to successfully pair horse to rider
I have a friend who grew up on a farm, and their parents thought a Shetland pony would be nice, but my friend said it was a mean little thing unless her father was right there. So I understand what the owner said about Shetlands having a reputation for being bad. Her description of people tolerating bad behavior because they're so cute reminds me of "small dog syndrome," where owners let a little dog do things that no big dog would be allowed to do. I'm glad the problem is not inbred but can be avoided if you know what you are doing.
There are a lot of Amish around where I live, and they often get Shetland ponies so the kids can learn to handle horses and drive buggies. In the country it's not unusual to see a couple ponies pulling a little wagon full of Amish kids. :)
It took me a long time to edit this episode because I had SO much cute footage to sort through and kept getting distracted by watching it instead of editing! 😆
Have you ever met a Shetland Pony? ✋
@Eva Hahaha, "Adorable little fluff ball of a breed" - That is a very accurate description!!! 😁😊
I had a Shetland pony, Fury ♥️♥️
Absolutely - many times. The Shetlands are truly a well represented breed!
Yes i have 1
Yes, and he is my boy Cheveyo , since 11 years now. He is black and white with blue eyes. He lives with my Quarter Horse Cheyenne on our property. He is the sweetest pony and gives great back scratches. I love him to bits.
❤ I met a Shetland years ago and had a short ride. 😊
They are a fascinating little pony!
My first pony was a shetland and I hold her memory in my heart. She was wonderful with us kids and always looked after us. Where ever we went she was there and happy to be with us. Her name was Dimples, white with a few grey dots on her that I called her happy dimples because as a small child, it made me happy to see her.

This is dangerous to watch the cuteness!!!!!💋❤🤗🧡💜
Really discover the horses and the beautiful Scotland, and their kids small horses 🐴🐎🐎🐎🐎, 🐴,
I love to see the foals doing the back kick. 😂😂😂❤❤❤
Sitting with foals must be the most heavenly experience on earth.

When they sat with the foals... that's what dreams are made of

I love how in the beginning she’s telling us facts and she finds these horses for us to watch her ride
Cuteness overload.

This was 😂 a major overload of cuteness for Shetland ponies and they have the stamina and the heart of champions can be cantankerous and clever but never a coward
I didn't realise how interactive they are. Such little cuties xxx
I have adored Shetland ponies since I was a child. They are adorable and fun. ❤️
They are just beautiful horses and so strong for their size. Wonderful story.
Ponies are not horses they are ponies.. for example a donkey is also not a horse. Totally different species. Under the big name equine.
@@lizzegerius9642 A donkey is a donkey, but a pony is a horse. "Pony" isn't a species. It's like a chihuahua and a great dane are both dogs.

It’s like playing with puppies. I just love the breed and they’re so beautiful.

This is awesome! I shared video to my wife and sister. They’ll love it too!
usually the father says he buys it for the little girl, but in reality he likes it because it makes him laugh.

Omg I thought this was Friesian Horses doing an update, with Yvonne home and meeting her new Shetland foal! You look so much like her sideways!
I saw that she was able to make a visit home, here is hoping to a speedy and full recovery, with lots of horse (and pony!) videos in her future! 💜
I hope so to!
