Otztaler Haflingers

Right young Kara, that’s us started on your journey to be a ridden pony again. Nice stroll out with Kiya this morning (who also hasn’t been ridden for weeks). Such good girls 🥰

Thought better of riding thanks to the wind so opted for a bit of free schooling and lunging instead. Good plan, Amadeo decided things were very exciting this morning. He threw some lovely shapes 🤣

Now just chilling out in his turnout, eating ones hay makes everything much more chilled 🥰

And that’s a wrap on foals 2026. The very beautiful Otztaler Matilda loaded like a pro and is now off to her amazing new home 🥰

I can’t welcome her new owner to Otztaler as she’s very much part of the family already. Have the best time with her Kati P Jones

I am having so much fun getting to form such a super bond with Amadeo. A bit of loose schooling tonight after a stupidly busy day at work.

He loves to work and is such a good boy (yes we work together in German 😆). This is him listening and he knows I’m between him and his tea 😬

Taking on any new horse can be daunting. When you do that in your 50’s with a 6yr old stallion it is beyond rewarding. We still pinch ourselves that we get to call this special horse ours 🥰

That’s our young man, Otztaler Adamaris (Dylan), on his way. A little bit of time teaming up with the fabulous Annie and then both of them off to new adventures. Have fun with him Molly Martin

It’s that time of year when we might have a bit of a noisy evening. Two foals not giving two hoots but the mums are shouting a bit. Amadeo, Kiya, Summer and Amj have requested ear plugs 🤣

Wishing the fabulous Charlie the best of luck with her new adventures in Wales. Sorry to see her go but excited to see her following her dreams. Go smash it and don’t forget us.

Woohoo. That’s both Amadeo and Kiya through 🎉

Super proud of Amadeo. When he came to the UK 6 months ago this talented young stallion had never competed at dressage. We started having a play with eRiders back in May and 3 months later he has his first 8's 🎉

Now to get Kiya to slow down a bit as she thinks it's way more fun to do all dressage tests at warp speed 🤣

A day in the arena for Amadeo today. We didn’t think the big brave stallion would cope with a big, yellow, noisy, Haflinger eating monster right next to his summer paddock 😆

We’ve held his hoof a bit and carrots have made things bearable. Brave lad 🥰
