The Howell and Tompkins walking pony project , which we have kept under wraps until we saw the colts , is now a proven venture . We have several colts on the ground and they all have a true walking gait . We are convinced that the Welsh and Shetland cross are both going to produce the best kids ’ ponies in America today , whether for pleasure or show .
These colts look and move like miniature walking horses . We intend to take movies of these colts , and any organization that is interested in the films may get them by writing to Pearl Tompkins , Elmo , Montana .
The stallion used in the breeding program on both the Welshs and Shetlands is a registered Tennessee Walking Stallion named BIG ENOUGH , No . 590084 . He is a double bred LAST CHANCE horse . This stallion stands approximately 58 inches high , and when used on large mares has demonstrated his ability to produce small , fine boned natural running walkers .
The Larsons held a clinic at the TR Dude Ranch near West Glacier on Memorial Day . Instructions were given on showing horses and equitation . A nice warm day drew a big crowd and everyone felt well paid for their trip . Another one will be held soon .
The Larson Training Stable reports several nice pleasure walkers in training and interest is growing all the time . Dorothy Fisher of Billings has a beautiful palomino mare at the stables which she recently purchased in Wisconsin . This pleasure mare knows several tricks and Roy Larson is helping Dorothy learn how to put her through them . We knew Roy could train a show horse to perfection , and we found he can also put a trick horse thru its routine as well . The horsemen in Western Montana are fortunate to have such a well known and able instructor .
The first Montana show this summer will be held in Billings . Several walkers are going from Western Montana . Among them , the following are going from Larson ’ s Stables : CARRYBACK , a mare owned by Art Harlow ; JEW­ EL ’ S FANCY KING owned by Virgil Ferree , and “ MY MUSIC MAN owned by Virgil Dutton .
The month of May has been a busy time for the horse breeders . New colts have been arriving daily , and the anxiety of “ sweating out ” these foals keeps everyone on their tees .
