SHORTCAKE
Shortcake is a 2019 sensible BLF bred and raised Welsh pony gelding. Sire, Better Than Gold and Dam, our sweet Tiramisu. A very smart boy! Shortcake currently walk, trots, canters and jumps alone or in company. Levelheaded and confident to ride. He has been ridden on trails, in parades, in the indoor and outdoor rings and even used in our lesson program with intermediate and advanced riders. He has both leads, and no vices. Shortcake lunges, free schools, ties, walks through water, stands for farrier, easy to clip and has rope halter handling experience. He is very brave and laid back, yet has a sweet and goofy personality. We really love this pony and he really loves trail riding! Beautiful barefoot feet and keeps a very neat stall. Doesn’t mind the crowd, loves attention. Shortcake has a stockier build like his mom and his half brother, Dolcemonte. Both half brothers from same dam are cute jumpers. Up to date on shots. Born March 31, 2019. Video coming soon! More photos and video of Shortcake.
CANNOLI
Cannoli is a 2020 homebred large Welsh pony gelding proudly offered for sale. He is a smokey buckskin with beautiful dapples that draw attention in the ring. Cannoli showed successfully on the local circuit in 2024 in the Baby Green hunters and Pleasures with an 11 year-old. He is ready to move up this year. We believe Cannoli has potential to be competitive at rated shows with continued training. Cannoli has an understanding of lateral work including: leg yielding, turn on the haunches/forehand, backing, and shoulder-in. He is light on the aides and carries himself well. We have used Cannoli for lessons and trail rides in addition to showing. He will cross water and jump natural obstacles as well as fences with filler. He can safely be ridden alone or in company. Ties, stands for braiding/vet/farrier (barefoot), clips, bathes, handles well with children, and loads on trailer. Cannoli has a very friendly personality and enjoys interacting with people and getting attention. May 18, 2020. MORE pictures and video here. https://bonnielea.com/cannoli/

KITA
Kita is our 2019 homebred Oldenburg x TB bay mare proudly offered for sale. Currently standing at 16.05hh and still growing. This girl is FANCY! She has such floaty movement and always places well in the hack. Kita debuted in the 2’3” hunters and .70m jumpers in 2024. She has shown successfully at Saratoga, Vermont, and several local shows! Her mother competed in many A-rated hunter derbies, and her father is a lovely hunter/jumper type who is extremely sensible. Kita has an in-your-pocket personality and is very sensible. She is currently learning lead changes and has a good understanding of lateral work. Kita trail rides, ties, stands for farrier/vet/bathing, and loads on trailer. She is very bold over fences and is not bothered by natural obstacles or filler. We believe Kita will thrive in the hunter and derby rings, but could also be successful in any ring. Kita would do best in a professional program with a professional or adult amateur rider. Such a great opportunity for someone to continue bringing along this fancy girl with so much potential! July 1, 2019. Video coming soon!
DOLCE MONTE
Dolce Monte (Dolce) – Born at BLF, “Dolce” is an extremely athletic, 12-year-old Welsh – Thoroughbred cross with permanent pony card and outstanding talent. Dapples all over with a gorgeous coat and shine. He has “A” show experience, and has done clinics with Greg Best, but has far too much talent to be in our lesson program. Dolce is incredibly adjustable with the ability to do horse or pony strides. Most recent lease was in Eastern Massachusetts with showing including the Dorset Summer Festival and Field Stone with youth rider. Adorable mover, jumps 3 feet no problem, auto changes and great sense of humor. Dolce has been ridden in local parades. Looking for his very own kid to love, knockout contender in all three rings. Great personality and very friendly pony, he will certainly keep you entertained! March 31, 2011. Video coming soon.
