Congratulations to other prize winners!

Breeding licence examination took place on the occassion of the Czech National Shetland Pony Championship on 13 Sept 2025 in Poděbrady.

Eitan already got his licemce when he was younger but we thought he could do better now that he is 7 years old.

He is from Equerry of Transy and Oxendale Jubilant, and he is both of theirs very first foal.

Eitan is a result of the well-tested and reliable Transy-Marshwood bloodlines combination. These ponies usually mature way later than shentlands of other bloodlines, e.g. Wells or Harvistoun.

At 7 years old Eitan is far more “done” than at 3, and showed his best. Especially movement was exceptional.

The jury were Mrs Eva Kadeřávková, Ing Roman Kloss and MVDR Jaroslav Dražan. My thanks to all of them for their warm approach.

Eitan got 7,5 points. He sired 2 fillys this year, they’re both very lovely.

Sky was 3rd in male class (black & coloured, 4 to 9 year old, intermediate size 86,1-97cm) at International Shetland Pony Show 2025
We are so proud of him. Sky is lovely, charming, cooperative young stallion. He is well mannered.

We prepare Sky for International Shetland Pony Show. Bath time.

The third and the last foal of the year was born to Jo at 5am this morning.

It’s a beautiful strong black filly. She is Jo’s fourth baby girl, the first one that is black. Jo is now a confirmed heterozygote.

This season’s birthings were fantastic.

We always woke up and found a still wet-and-wobbly but lively foal. The placentas were all easy to find and in one piece. Nice!

The Colt arrived early morning today. Dame is Markes Beatrice
Sir is Plamp Fortune Skywalker.

He is very similar to 5 days old Pipa.

Bibi is going to stay in our stud with our stallion Skywalker

We got a lovely piebald filly today early morning. Pipaluk is out of Plamp Primrose by Plamp Eitan (both parents are registered with SPSBS, SA negative).
Pipa is such a sweet, calm muffin.

The lady in the photo is my dear friend Jana. It is her “fault” we breed shetland ponies.

I saw the first shetland pony in her stud many years ago and I was gone 😊.

My at the time one year old filly Juri developed a sarcoid by her eye.

It did not grow or change, for several months it remained the same size and shape. About 1cm big. I started applying Renu28 gel, though not with much consistency.

Even then the sarcoid begun changing - it got longer and pointier until it was only hanging in by a thin stem. At last it fell off all by itself.

The treatment took 3 months. Juri is now 3 years old and the sarcoid has not returned.

Eric is 7 months old. We call him Éro. He still shares the fence with his mom Janine and with his aunt Jaffe. Éro and Jaff are partners in crime.

Ero is easy going foal, no problems with headcolar or lift up his leg. He is sweet.
