Troy was first on the list for a haircut this time round ๐คฉ
Clipping our ponies reduces sweating and overheating which allows them to keep cooler while being exercised. Itโs also a great way to keep their coats cleaner as well as looking super smart!

At Smithstone Equestrian Centre we are passionate about assisting young people to fulfil their horsey dreams ๐
So true โฆ.
If you give your child a pony, they will want to ride. Youโll buy them the best pony you can find, followed by a hat, boots and all the other things pony.
You look for a local stables to ride at where you start to socialise with the horsey community...and then life as you know it, will end.
Before you know it, they want to go to showsโฆthere will be no more lazy weekends watching TV. You will see more sunrises than you ever thought possible.
Every spare minute of your time will be spent driving horseboxes and enduring a crazy addiction to practice for the next show.
Your house may be a mess, and your car will be dirty. All because you gave your child a pony. Your weekends will be spent freezing or burning to death on a fold up chair. And their weekends will be spent gaining confidence and friends, learning new skills and having fun and getting dirty!!!!
You will be there the day he or she takes the first few steps of canter, the first taste of a jump, first rosette, first win. And they will make you SO proud. Other parents will congratulate you, but you feel weird saying thank you because it's not you on the pony, itโs your child. It's everything that they did, they achieved. And right before your eyes, your little boy/girl will be transformed from the baby who bounced around on their rocking horse into an exceptional young horse enthusiast.
When you give your child a pony, you give them more than just something to ride. You give them a sport, a talent, hope and dreams. Friends, a new family, a place to learn about life, room to grow as a person where they can push their limits, and bravery, and courage, and memories. And they will have ALL of these things, simply because you gave your child a pony.
Because you gave your child a pony, you too will develop new/lifelong friendships, developed solely from the same p
