Our Classic Shetland Ponies

MARES

Kamelot's Dancing Ballerina

Foaled: 4/13/91 - 45"

Sire: Michigan's Mighty Mike
Dam: Bar G's Flash Dancer


We fell in love with this mare the very first time we saw her as a 2 year old filly. At that time, we knew nothing about Shetland Ponies but she was just too beautiful to resist! We bought her and brought her home and just started playing with her. Eventually, we showed her in halter classes, showmanship classes, and broker her to drive. Our youngest son, Ethan, rode her in Lead-line 6 years and under. We had so much fun showing her. She was always at the top of her class and she always wanted to please you and show for you. We retired her from the showring in 1996 and in 1997 we had her bred to Raven of Bird Haven, leading sire at Wilkinson Pony Farm, Grand Island, Nebraska. "Blu" didn't disappoint us - she produced an awesome bay and white filly that we are ready to add to our show string for the 2001 season. We repeated the breeding again in 1999 and in 2000 she blessed us with a spectacular black and white colt. Blu is a wonderful example of what the Classic Shetland Pony is - versatile, curious, gentle, and absolutely beautiful!

Outlaw's Raven's Dancing Beauty

Foaled: 9/3/98

Sire: Raven of Bird Haven
Dam: Kamelot's Dancing Ballerina (see photo above)

"Beauty is our very first shetland foal that we have raised. All of us, including the owners of the sire, were anxiously awaiting the arrival of this bundle. For some reason our youngest son, Ethan, laid claim to this baby before she was ever born. Ethan was 8 years old at the time and he was really excited about this foal. The first words out of his mouth when he saw her were "Oh, she is beautiful!" and they were said with such reverence. And beautiful she is and that is where her name comes from - Ethan's own choosing and he picked it well!

Wilk. No Illusion

Foaled: 5/28/96 - 44"

Sire: Raven of Bird Haven
Dam: Wilk. Pipi Longstocking

This mare also caught our eye and we wanted another beautiful Classic Shetland, so she was bought and added to our small herd. She is totally breathtaking to watch running free in the pasture - tail flying high and legs popping up. Illi's sire is the only ASPC Classic Shetland Stallion to be recognized as a Superior Sire. What an awesome feat!
