How strong are Shetland ponies? TV Episode 373

Join Rosemary in this week’s advice video as she answers your question, how strong are Shetland ponies? We often get asked the question how do the Shetlands manage to carry the children when they are so small? Our Shetlands range in size from 32 inches- 42 inches, from the ground to the top of their withers, so they are very small indeed. However, they are very strong in proportion to their size. Shetlands are strong because: Their lower legs have strong, stocky, and thick cannon bones (the bone between the hoof and the knee) They have a wide chest and their heart is big and strong They have a muscular neck, compact body, and short back Fun Facts: Shetlands can pull twice their body weight compared to a large horse that can pull only half his body weight A child on a Shetlands back is the equivalent to us carrying a large handbag Our larger ponies can carry weight up to 7 stone https://shetlandponyclub.co.uk/book-now/ From Rosemary, the Shetland Pony Club Team and all the Shetland ponies Contact us on: 07734 950 309 or email: info@shetlandponyclub.co.uk ---------------- Get involved with Shetland ponies – find out more: If you enjoyed this video there are so many more ways to get involved with the ponies at Shetland Pony Club, wherever you are in the world.
