Here they are - our ponies. Our first pony was bought in autumn 2000 - spring 2003 we decided to buy another pony and it was Niisku. And we you gave your heart for pony trotting, there were no turning back! You can see that below by looking our ponies at the moment ;) Gotland Russ-ponies are great ponies for many purposes. They are usually very active and suit well for trotting. Gotland Russ is the fastest trotting pony in the world. They are also humble and at least our ponies have such a big ego and trust for humans that they're working well and are easy to drive and ride. And could be used in any activities. Of course they have their own personalities. Russ-ponies have also a strong self-confidence, own will, (some people call it negatively stubborn) and humans have to be the leader of the herd. Otherwise, as a smart pony, Russ will take the leadership quite quickly. They are very intelligent and learn easily new things. Really wonderful pony persons – all our Russ-ponies. And of course, Shetlands too!

We have bought primarily well bred mares and rather young ones. We like to work with young ponies; a lot of work but challenging and gratifying. What we're looking for when we buy ponies is the maternity line.
Our aim is to put mares in quite young age to breeding even they will loose their "last seconds" from the race track. We hope they can still move those seconds to their coming foals =)
