Meet The Ponies
Max
Max is a very sweet pony, who always gives the best cuddles! His favourite thing to do is jumping over the cross-country fences we have in the field.
Gender: Gelding
Height: 13.2 hh
Age: 12

Breed: Cob

Fun fact: Max can look very different every time you see him! Max has to have a clip (shave) every couple of months because he gets so hairy. He may look like a fluffy bear one day, and then a freshly clipped show dog the next.
