Hi to all. I'm new on here. Found my way to IHDG through Liz Pitman who gave me some help with my highland pony (hi Liz!). I've got a 4 year old shetland, Dougal, who's a bit of a star albeit a bit naughty with my daughter at times! And the aforementioned Highland Pony, 3 years old, Asty, who came to live with us last July from the Isle of Mull. Absolutely gorgeous, dream come true, totally thrilled to own him. Really excited about our future together though sometimes my confidence totally deserts me but fortunately it comes back too!! Looking forward to learning lots to help us on our way!

Ginny, did Asty come from the same place as Tob's Camrie? I saw this year's foals when I was up there a couple of weeks ago - there's some photos of them on a thread on General Horse Chat.
I LOVE Highlands. Tob also has a shetland called Wee Bobby. You may know her from the Highland Pony forum?
Brilliant to have you on the DG. Look forward to seeing some photos too. xx

Yep Casper, he did. I know Tob, or islander on the HPEC forum well, she went to see Asty for me before I bought him, she's great, the HPECers love wee Bobby too! I think Tob's Camrie's dad is Asty's grandad and they're both erray ponies. I'll put some pics on soon, he's very much like Camrie in colour but Camrie is much bigger than Asty'll be. I just think Asty is so beautiful, a dream come true for me! Dougal is fab too I should add!

Looking forward to seeing photos of Asty and Dougal. Tob (Islander) and I originally became DG friends because of the two Bobby's. Tob's Wee Bobby who I always called Bobby The Brave and my Big Bobby (the bay on the left and right hand side of my signature). Wee Bobby may have been small in size but he is HUGE in stature and bravery compared to my big wuss of a horse!
The Erray foals are always gorgeous aren't they? There were three this year (with more to come) and I would have loved them all!
No wonder Asty is so beautiful with those bloodlines, you lucky lady. And having Dougal too, brilliant.
Tob said what a star Wee Bobby is on the HPEC Forum. I'm not surprised, he's personality plus isn't he!
