#40 PIPALOTICUS

Pipaloticus is a 6-year-old, 13-hand pony mare that embodies everything you want in a true family pony: safe, smart, dependable, and full of heart. She is the definition of trustworthy, with a loving personality that makes her a barn favorite.

On the trails, she is as quiet and confident as they come, willingly going anywhere she is pointed and handling traffic with ease. Around the barn, she is a perfect angel — easy to bathe, groom, tack, and shoe. Our daughter rides her daily, often bareback with just a halter, and we trust her completely to catch, tack, and ride off unsupervised at only 8 years old. That’s the level of safety and consistency this pony delivers.

Pipaloticus also has the kind of training that makes her a standout in any arena. She handles beautifully with a one-hand neck rein, has been started English, and already shows an automatic lead change. She walks, trots, canters with ease, and confidently goes over fences. Whether for pleasure, performance, or simply a safe and fun partner for children, she offers the rare combination of brains, training, and an unshakably kind nature.

Always the first one to greet you in the pasture and the same pony every single day, Pipaloticus is a once-in-a-lifetime kind of pony — the kind you’ll have a hard time letting go.
