The Welsh Pony was the product of breeding between Mountain mares and little Welsh Cob stallions. These ponies were then improved with the introduction of blood from Arabians and small Thoroughbreds. They were mostly used on the mountain for carrying men to shepherd and hunt. The Welsh Pony has pulled chariots in sports arenas, worked in coal mines, ranches, and on postmen's routes. American breeders imported Welsh ponies as early as the 1889s. The Welsh Pony crosses well with many other breeds and still has maintained his own dominant physical characteristics over the years.

The Welsh pony has a pleasant personality and an even temper, is smart and continually alert. He has spirit, but with gentleness and an eagerness to obey. These attributes have made the Welsh Pony a quality animal of unusual versatility and widespread use. Google Ads
