Hi, though I'd introduce myself. I am Kathryn and myself and a friend run the Dartmoor Pony Training Centre - to find out more about that have a look in the charities section!
I myself own 3 Dartmoors and a Welsh Section D.
The Welsh Section D is Lily, she is 14 years old, she came down with laminitis for the first time in December and I am just starting riding her again, so far so good!
My first Dartmoor is Tigger I've had him since he was 6 months old, he is now 4 and we are having fun learning long lining and having saddles put on!
I also own two other Dartmoors but they are out on loan, the first is Snoopy who I fell in love with as a foal out on the moors and when I saw him at the sales I brought him (oops) - he was very recognisable and even in the sales pen confident enough to say hello!
And finally is the sweetie Ebony. I fell in love with her at our open day lasy year and couldn't bear the thought of her going through the sales so ended up buying her from the farmer. I had intended to keep her and back her as a riding pony for me in a couple of years but Lily got laminitis and that took over and a really good home came up so off she went. Sarah Weston worked with her at our open day (then named Anne) and she was a star!
