Training of our ponies
Do you know the feeling to be the first rider of
your own-bred pony?
Then you can imagine, that we undertake the
training of our ponies ourselves. Long time ago I was member of the
Bavarian championship team of pony training where I learned the
traditional British way of equestrian sport. After school I
continued studies also in other ways of horse training for my own
interest.
Our ponies are growing up with daily contact to
our family, so they develop into affectionate ponies with a lovely
character.
At the age of 3 years (depending on their
development stage) we start riding them in a program tailored to their
progress. Often they are ridden outside in the countryside to improve
their balance and handling of the rider on their back.
Our pony breeder-association is requiring for a
certificate for the brood-mares to have passed successfully a riding
performance test. The training for this exam I also conduct personally
on the farm. Therefore all of our brood-mares are well trained and
ridden, and have passed a jump-test (as part of the performance exam)
with a certificate, which is added to their pedigree information.
