CHECK OUT OUR 2007 FOALS! The Welsh Pony & Cob
Society was founded in Wales in 1901 and their first stud book was
published in 1902. The original classification for Welsh ponies was
Section A, The Welsh Mountain Pony. With a great need for children’s
riding ponies, Section B, The Welsh Pony was added in 1931.
Excellent dispositions and curious. |
| The
Welsh pony combines the most admirable qualities of the smaller pony
and the light horse and his uses exceed both. In temperament, he may
be so quiet as to be suitable for the very young; or, he may be more
spirited and active, and thus ideal for the growing youngster and
teenager. He is being used
increasingly in 4-H, Vo-Ag. and Future Farmer projects, and is shown
successfully by youngsters and adults alike. He is the first choice of the
family wanting a “child’s pony” that is friendly, responsive, and
dependable. |

The breed standard for the Bs
is the same as for the As, but more particularly the Section B pony is
described as a riding pony, with quality, riding action, adequate bone and
substance, hardiness and constitution and with pony character. Today’s Welsh pony is a
quality animal of unusual versatility and wide use. To see him is to
admire him and love him. To own him and enjoy his companionship is a
privilege that certainly will be enjoyed by more and more people over the
years ahead.
