Welsh Ponies & Cobs
JPH raises and trains Welsh ponies and cobs and attends WPCSA competitions at the Regional and National levels. When a young rider is considering getting a horse we encourage our students to purchase or lease registered welsh or half-welsh ponies and cobs for a number of reasons.
- They are a great breed!! They are well mannered, easy to train and come in many sizes from 11 hands for the smallest of riders to 15.2+ hand cobs for any size adult.
- They are less expensive in comparison to many other breeds used for recognized English riding competitions.
- There are many competitions in our region. We attend 9 WPCSA competitions each year and most are within a 3 hour drive.
- Shows are reasonably priced compared to USEF Hunter/Jumper events.
- They are versatile. We compete at the WPCSA shows in english, western, jumping, trail, driving & in hand events. Welsh shows have classes for children and adults of all skill levels.
