Welcome and thank you for visiting our website,
we are very proud of our Shetland pony stud and specialise in both miniature and standard Shetlands and welcome anybody that
wishes to visit.
Our foundation stock was mostly small but based on the very best breeding with
good strong bone, good conformation and temperaments, all ponies are registered with the Shetland pony stud-book society.
We spent all the money that we could afford then and since to ensure that our breeding program progressed quickly
and successfully. This included purchasing the son of the most famous miniature pony in the world Romany Paco called
Bulkgwyn Toby from the owners of Romany Paco, we have since added to our stallions with Edern Carna, Wolfords Little Bear,
Shazan Brandysnap and Fairytail Patch Adams who is homozygous for the tobiano gene, so will always have coloured foals
even to plain coloured mares.
Romany Paco is still the only miniature Shetland pony that has been a World Champion
miniature, a European champion three times and a British Champion at the annual breed show, there has still never to date
been any other miniature Shetland pony or other miniature horse that has done so well in the show ring.
Many
of Romany Paco's offspring are now winning championships around the UK and Europe and we hope that Sandbeck ponies will
do the same.
I hope you like our website and that you get what you need from it, don’t forget to visit
our pony pages if you are interested in buying one of our beautiful ponies.
