Our Ponies:
We raise two types of rare breed ponies - Scottish Highland and Swedish Gotland. We also have a Quarter Horse, Arab, Hanoverian, and Standardbred boarding here.
Scottish Highland:
The Highlands are one of the largest pony breeds, just under the 14.2 HH limit for a pony. One of our Highlands weighs about 1200# - now that’s a BIG pony! The Highlands were bred to do everything from riding to plowing fields and pulling wagons in the barren mountains of Scotland.
Swedish Gotland Ponies
The Gotlands are shorter (12-13HH) and weigh 500 to 700#, but are very strong, athletic, highly intelligent, and can easily carry a 180# adult, originating from Gotland Island off the coast of Sweden. In Sweden, the Gotlands are used for cart racing.

Lady - Standardbred

This lady is 23 years old. Well behaved and gaited, she is a great trail horse. 

Misty - Arabian

Misty is one of our most well behaved horses here at Burnshirt. Sound, a swift mover, responsive, and a great overall attitude, she is another one of the jumpers here. Great in the lesson ring and out on the trails, Misty is a great horse to ride.

Abbie - Scottish Highland

Abbie is a 10 year old mare. Soon to loose her dapples and get a full white coat, she is the daughter of Millie, another white Scottish highland. A popular mount for adults and teens.  Those willing to work and connect with her can get her to do pretty much anything.

Doc - Quarter horse

Doc is one of our oldest boarding horses. This 27 year old gelding is retired from riding.  He is very willing to go for a walk in hand.

Justice - Hanoverian/Paint Mix

Justice is a 14 year old mare who is boarded here. Although she is still in training, kids as young as 5 years old can ride her as long as they are being led around by someone else. She is just as gentle and affectionate with people as she is fast!

Onyx - Gotland Pony

Onyx is among the favorites at Burnshirt. Although it takes a few minutes to catch her from the paddock, she is a very sweet and lovable pony who always takes care of the children who ride her. A great fit for kids that are learning how to ride!

Kermit - Gotland pony

Now this is a pony who gets the job done! Kermit is a 21 year old gelding that is also on the favorites list. Not only is he adorable and fluffy, but he can carry riders from their very first lesson to their first canter in an open field.

Jose - Gotland Pony

WARNING: This pony is a seriously great jumper! That’s Jose, a 17 year old gelding. Even though he can be stubborn at the canter, he is just as fearless as some of our bravest riders! A sound pony who is a great mount for anyone, Jose is a friend to all.

Olivia - Gotland Pony

Olivia is a 17 year old mare who is also another popular lesson pony. Great for kids, she knows how to give them all an enjoyable ride! She is actually the mother of Belle, another black Gotland. 

Belle - Gotland pony

Belle is an affectionate 9 year old mare who can be selective with the people who ride her. Well known as the barn snuggle bug, she loves human company and doesn’t mind when people lay down with her during one of her midday naps. A great ride for anyone who likes to go bareback!

rio - quarter horse/paint mix

Rio is a 3-year old gelding who is currently in training. He is another one of the boarding horses, and although he isn't used for lessons, he is a very sweet horse that is great for groundwork practice.

Rose - Scottish Highland

Rose is a 21 year old mare. Mainly ridden by adults/parents who wish to accompany their kids for a ride, Rose is a commonly used horse for people of all ages. This is a strong horse that needs a strong rider.

Brandy - Quarter horse

Morven - Scottish highland

​Morven is a gentle mare at 17 years old. Very responsive and is sure to provide a fun time for anyone who takes her out on the trails! She’s a horse for a more experienced rider.
