It was about 10 years ago that Mr. John Mulvihill of Glengeigh, Co. Kerry first acquired a little chestnut stallion and recognised it almost immediately as a Kerry Bog Pony. The grandson of that pony is Flashy
Fox whose dam is known as Purple Heather. Other stallions are Old Peat and the Bogman, these three stallions are the nucleus of the breeding herd in Kerry.
To symbolise the pony's link with the heritage of the bog, these ponies are named after bog flora and fauna. As well as those named above The Badger Queen, Bog Cotton, the Brave Badger, Bog Oak, are just some of the names.
