Oliver
My gentle giant, well he's only 14.2hh, but does width count......!! and lets face it, next to a miniature anything looks huge!
All the Shetties love Olly. He is totally unflappable and is doing a wonderful job of gently guiding our yearling colt Champlers Oliver at the moment.

Marsh Reuben
A grand 38rs years of age!!!!!!!!
Reu has been with us for 29years, he is incredibly sprightly for his age. Having had horses all our lives, he was my 9th birthday present from my mom when i outgrew my 11.2 Prince Phillip Cup pony. Over the years we had many fantastic times together, one day eventing, WHP classes, riding home with the hounds, and even meeting Princess Ann when representing our local Riding Club.
He is out with the mares & foals this summer and is a wonderful patient 'grandad'. The mares are very gentle with him and all trust him immediately with their foals.

Daisy & Bruno
Daisy came over from Romania & had obviously been abused judging by her condition, and her fear.... She was so malnourished we were unable to tell she was in foal until very close to foaling.
She is now a wonderful relaxed, (& greedy) lady, if a little stubborn! Instead of cowering from almost any movement these days she brays when we arrive, and will not be quiet until she has a cuddle to say hello. She is very skilled at getting her own way, but, aware we are being conned, we figure she probably deserves it.

Squiff
Rescued at the eleventh hour from Swansea Pound by Many Tears Rescue. Squiff joined us over 3 years ago and, apart from the odd sock, is wonderful. He adores the foals and watching them play with him takes up many an afternoon in the summer.
