Nottinghamshire | No loans | Loving home essential
It breaks our hearts to list this very special boy, but we simply can’t keep them all.
This registered black standard Shetland gelding (approx. 39”) was bought for our autistic son after a knock in confidence—and he’s been everything we hoped for and more. Kind, calm, and endlessly patient, he has gently restored confidence and trust in the saddle.
While still young, he’s got the most wonderful brain. He’s been ridden off-lead by an older child, and taken part in just about everything you can imagine—from gunfight cowboy games to picnic rides, football chaos, and noisy play sessions. Nothing phases him—he’s as spook-proof and bombproof as they come. We haven't had transport to show him but I've no doubt he wouldn't be phased.
He’s not *quite* ready to be called a first ridden due to age, but he’s got all the ingredients to become one. With the right family, he’ll go far—whether that’s as a much-loved family pony, a therapy companion, or a cracking child’s best friend.
Fabulous temperament.Good with children, dogs, and chaos
Standard size but not full-up Up to date with everything
This isn’t a rushed sale—we’re looking for a home that will truly value him.
He's worth his weight in gold, and we believe the right people will see that. We’re happy to wait for the right match.

Breed Standard
Height - Registered stock must not exceed 40 inches (102 cm) at three years or under, or 42 inches (107 cm) at four years or over. Ponies are measured from the withers to the ground by measuring stick and on a level stance, preferably concrete should be used
Colour - Shetland Ponies may be any colour known in horses except spotted
Coat - The coat changes according to the seasons of the year; a double coat in winter with guard hairs which shed rain and keep the pony’s skin completely dry in the worst weather. By contrast, the summer coat is short and should carry a beautiful silky sheen. At all times the mane and tail hair should be long straight and profuse and the feathering of the fetlocks straight and silky
Head - The head should be small, carried well and in proportion. Ears should be small and erect, wide set but pointing well forward. Forehead should be broad wtih bold, dark, intelligent eyes. Blue eyes are not acceptable. Muzzle must be broad with nostrils wide open. Teeth and jaw must be correct
Hind Legs - The thighs should be strong and muscular with well shaped, strong hocks, neither hooky nor too straight. When viewed from behind, the hindlegs should not be set too widely apart, nor should the hocks be turned in
Fore Legs - Should be well placed with sufficient good, flat bone. Strong forearm. Short, balanced cannon bone. Springy pasterns
Feet - Tough, round and well shaped - not short, narrow, contracted or thin
Action - Straight, free action using every joint and tracking-up well
General - A most salient and essential feature of the Shetland Pony is its general air of vitality (presence), stamina and robustness
