Miniature stud "De
IJsselhof" is located in Ulft, in the eastern part of The Netherlands, near
the German border.
The owner of the stud, the Hetterscheidt family, is engaged in breeding horses and
ponys for more than fifty years. Since the last twenty years they specialized in breeding miniature
horses.
|
| By selecting for years and by
using many foreign bloodlines (Falabella), we succeeded in breeding miniature
horses, in which we meet three important characteristics: 1. The horses are of high quality.
2. The horses are in various colours.
3. The horses are tiny. |

Because many
breeding products gained topresults on national as well as international shows, they have
been exported to various parts of the world. Besides breeding miniature horses, the Hetterscheidt family is also engaged
in breeding other animal species, such as miniature zebus, miniature sheep (Ouessant),
dexters and alpacas. |
For these animals also applies: quality,
colour and tiny.
