This Newsletter is a new endeavor by breeder members of the WPCSA who support the original breed standards of all sections of Welsh ponies and cobs, and I have volunteered to produce it with the help of all who send me pertinent information, comments and opinions; and everyone is entitled to their opinion.

Things to Do |
What I don't understand is how someone who had such a fantastic breeding program, producing excellent Welsh ponies has done such a turnaround in her views on the Welsh standard? And "influx of new genes"?? WHAT is that all about? Everyone with half a brain knows that "the best" are never sold off. The breeders overseas admit that they do not sell their best, so WHAT are we importing? Of course the ponies that those breeders do not want and can no longer sell to the killers due to the protests of the animal rights people. And who over here NEEDS those genes in their herds? The Welsh genes here are NOT too close, and if someone thinks they are then all they have to do is AI to THE BEST of the stallions they can find anywhere. In that way they are assured of getting THE BEST. Linebreeding has always been the way to set the mien of one's ponies, with careful outbreeding to keep the line strong. Think about it, you always knew a Liseter or Severn or GlanNant bred pony when you saw one........... the way you could recognize a Coed Coch, Criban, Clan or Revel bred pony. |

1. Contact the WPCSA monthly or
weekly (by phone, email or letter) to let them know your opinion on the
issues. Keep on doing it. 2. Constantly update people you know who have Welsh as to the status of the issues. 3. Seriously consider running for the BOD. And let us know so we can help campaign. 4. Finally, lets get that slate of candidates together and start sending flyers to WPCSA members with your qualifications. Now...... it's important! |
