MY PONY

Whether it's wild ponies on Dartmoor or the local riding school's Saturday morning classes, the appeal of the horse is universal. Riding is an extremely popular pastime, which has fuelled many dreams of sporting success and olympic medals. But for the majority of riders the first requirement is a pony of their own. "My Pony" has been designed to help you find the pony of your dreams.

This programme will guide you through every aspect of buying a pony, giving you all the information you need to make your choice with confidence. Once purchased, your pony's needs are many, so you will find advice about pony care, feeding, shelter, security and safety.

More importantly, owning a pony is about enjoyment, so as well as being packed with facts and figures, you will also get to see plenty of ponies. Some are out on country hacks, others are learning to jump, there's tacking up, grooming and schooling. Pick up lots of helpful hints from riders who've gained their experience first hand. Take it from them, a pony of your own may be hard work, but all things considered, it's great fun and definitely worth the effort!
