The Fell Pony

Fell Ponies are a rare breed from England, with around 850 ponies in North America and fewer than 40 foals born here per year.  Their useful size of 13 to 14 HH and drafty build of around 1,000 lbs. mature make them a solid working mount. 

 

The intellectual ability, versatility, and temperament of the Fell Pony is second to none! 

​​

Our Philosophy

How the pony is raised matters.....our ponies live in a herd environment in the foothills and mountain terrain of western South Dakota.  We believe living out in the hill pastures provides the best opportunity for genetic expression and exposure to many things, fostering the development of a sound mind and body.

​

Our ponies are handled daily with love and respect using age-appropriate training from birth to the day they leave. ​

​

Our Focus

We specialize in youngstock started with groundwork from birth and not ridden until at least 4 years old.  

​

There is SO MUCH you can do with an equine before riding them that builds a solid foundation for success!

​

DakotaFell breeding stock is both imported and proudly raised here in North America. We pay attention to pedigree diversity as well as Fell Pony type.
