Liz Otten

Liz Otten is a Pony of the Americas breeder in Missouri, USA, a state in the Midwest near St. Louis. With over a decade of experience, she maintains membership in the Pony of the Americas Club, follows rigorous health testing protocols for her herd, and regularly evaluates care practices based on equine research.

Her ponies are raised on pastureland with daily turnout alongside older equines, encouraging strong bones and gentle temperaments. Early handling includes basic maneuvers and trail exposure from the first few months. Foals go home with detailed care guides and veterinary records assembled from birth.

Each pony undergoes annual dental and hoof care to maintain lasting soundness. Rooted in a family farm tradition, her lineup includes show champions and mounts trained for therapeutic programs. Positive feedback often notes her transparent communication and patient approach to matching ponies with riders.
