Is my Shetland ill 🤣 ?

My TB does all the above plus unties himself and other horses; liimbos under stable chains; steals the ducks' food and is expert at opening supplement tubs. I've always wondered if he was the result of some bizarre brain swap experiment with a native.....

Didn't they discover that TBs got the sprinting gene from a Shetland pony mare way back in the Northern Dancer line? Your chap is just channelling his ancestry

Well he certainly didn't inherit the sprint gene, but then he has no Northern Dancer anywhere.

Mine is mostly an angel. As long as the fence is on he won’t go over/under If it goes saggy and isn’t clicking he knows it’s not on then it’s fair game. It’s only two strands. He lives with my others quite happily but would love a friend as the others don’t really play as much as he’d like . I did promise him one but ended up with an ancient Section A instead, so he’ll continue to be the annoying child of the family He makes me laugh every day as he’s very nosey and brave and I’d really miss him if he wasn’t here.
