Hi guys!
I have a little pony (about 12 hands) that I got from a former trainer after she got him from a friend. We were told that he was some sort of Hafflinger cross, but I, along with my current trainer and even some friends, have been speculating about his actual breed. We’re leaning towards some combination of Hafflinger/Hackney/Welsh/Icelandic/Shetland.
Does anyone know of any good, reputable places where I can send some DNA and find out what he actually is? Preferably somewhere that isn’t too insanely expensive. Thanks!
I had a DNA test done via Texas A&M, I think…it was somewhere in Texas anyway.
It is a fun thing to do even if not 100% accurate for a horse of unknown breeding.
Don’t waste your money. As pocket pony said, the results aren’t accurate. Honestly, just put some pony breeds on a dart board and throw, you’ll probably get more accurate results.
