Watch Out, He Bites!

Living the quiet life in a grassy paddock on a Yorkshire dairy farm is a small, fuzzy black-and-white Shetland pony, spending his days happily grazing with his even smaller ginger buddy.From over the rickety dry stone wall, Humbug easily gives the impression of being very sweet with big dark eyes, long eyelashes, a rounded tummy, a forelock that Tina Turner s hairdresser would have been proud of, and slightly misshapen legs due to arthritis in his knees.Nothing in his outward appearance gives even a hint of the chaos he s caused over the past 20 years or so, but there s a reason the stone wall is rickety and it s only as you look more closely that you realize the ponies are contained within a paddock with four (yes, four!) low strands of electric fencing. The gaps along the top of the stone wall are a testament to Humbug s escapology pursuits, occasionally aided by large, wet-nosed dairy cows who love a bit of entertainment!This is the true story of Humbug and his family (human and equine) and the often hilarious exploits and misdeeds that have entertained, frustrated, and exasperated his long-suffering humans.You re invited to sit back, relax, and enjoy getting to know this charismatic little pony. I hope you appreciate his adventures but watch out he bites!Follow Humbug on X (formerly Twitter): @HumbugAndTobyAnd on Instagram: @humbug_and_tobyHe looks forward to welcoming you there!
