Breed Description:


 The Connemara pony is famous for being hardy, strong and tough. It goes with no surprise as the breed began in the rocky coast of western Ireland.  The ponies developed an ability to move quickly across rough hard rocky ground in unpleasant, harsh Irish weather. Western Irish landscape helped to create this supple and flexible Connemara ponies are admired and valued for all of these qualities.

The average Height of a Connemara is 13 to 15 hands, but some can be bigger or smaller than this. The main most common  colour of a Connemara is grey.  The next most common colour is bay. Dark bay, Dun, Roan, Black and Cremello are slightly less common colours of the Connemara pony. Piebald and skewbald are not accepted by the Connemara registry this means that the pony will not get a green stud book or passport and are not accepted for registration.
