Ponies for Sale Update
May 13, 2019
As we know, several of y'all are waiting on new videos of ponies to be posted. We are working on getting videos edited to be added to the site, but in the meantime, you can contact Ava for more information about the ponies we currently have. There are ten ponies for sale, ranging from 10hh to 14.1hh. Ava is currently compiling a list for me to add here.
Ava and I had a miscommunication last week. Butterscotch is the pony who is sold, not Midnight. Midnight (7yo 10hh black/white spotted gelding) is currently with a family whose children range in age from 3 to 14 and are ridden or driven every day. He is a great all-around family pony - who can be ridden or driven by beginner kids and then used in the cart by parents/grandparents.
Butterscotch (4yo black/white/grey spotted gelding) and Charlie (5yo black/white spotted gelding), who we mentioned last week, were sold together and are now part of a family with children ages 2 to 8.
Other ponies include:
Sheila - 13.1hh 5yo black/white spotted mare. Kid-broke to ride and drive.
Lexie - 13.3hh 7yo black/white/brown spotted mare. Riding pony for beginners.
You can reach Ava best by phone at 276-429-2142 (home) or 276-608-8395 (cell).

At Whittling Ridge Farms, our focus is providing good, honest horses and ponies. We live on a working farm, where in addition to horses and ponies, we raise cattle, sheep, and goats.
We have various sizes of equines, from our Percheron draft mares on down to a miniature horse every now and again. We specialize in Georgian Grandes (Saddlebred-Percheron crosses) and have been raising them since the late 1980s. We own and are currently raising foals from American Saddlebred stallion Santana Hosanna. We also partner with the Hershberger family in Applecreek, Ohio, with whom we raise, buy, and sell ponies. Our horses and ponies, in Virginia or Ohio, are used to being ridden both alone and in groups, often with free-roaming horses in the fields with them, as well. They have many trail miles and are used for anything that they’re needed for on the farms. When riding on our farm in Virginia, we never know what we might encounter when we ride out into the back fields. It is not uncommon for our horses to flush wild turkeys and deer from the woods or to round up our cattle and sheep to move into other pastures. Our Ohio horses and ponies are accustomed to being ridden or driven on the main roads, and as you can see in videos, being passed by large trucks and tractor trailers is just an ordinary part of the day. |

We're currently in the process of pulling together photos of this year's crop of foals. In the meantime, here are a few not-so-great shots of mares, foals, our Georgian Grande stallion, and this IS us, so yes, there's also a bunch of sheep...
