Shetlandpony abzugeben

With a heavy heart, I am selling my Shetland Pony Atilla along with all accessories, as I no longer have the time to give him the attention he deserves, and he is far too good to be left standing around.

- 10 years old  
- approximately 32 inches (80 cm) tall  
- Dominant personality  

Atilla is a small, cheeky, and stubborn pony who likes to assert himself. However, he is very curious and affectionate. With patience, trust-building, and regular interaction, he can become a wonderful companion. He is well-behaved during grooming. He is gentle with children but is not suitable as a children's pony. Atilla needs an experienced handler who can build a lot of trust with him, as he often and willingly shows his stubborn side. Therefore, he requires a person with sufficient knowledge and assertiveness, approaching him calmly, patiently, and without any force.  

Walking with him is generally possible, although he tends to start bucking when out on a walk. Atilla is a quick learner and, with calm handling, I believe he has great potential to become an excellent pony, as he is very promising. We have also once harnessed him for driving, which he handled very well for a first attempt, although there is room for further training.  

He has been standing unused for several months and hasn't been worked with much recently due to my lack of time. He is well-behaved at the farrier. He is only being offered to a caring, experienced home (with sufficient horse experience), as I bought him from a dealer and would like to avoid him returning there. Currently, he is kept in an open stable, but he is also familiar with box stall housing.  

Priority on the right home!
