Moonwalking Shetland Pony in paternity battle

[Still Waters]

The moonwalking Shetland pony who became a worldwide internet sensation has found himself at the centre of a paternity battle.

After starring in the mobile phone advert dancing to Fleetwood Mac’s Everywhere, Socks was put out to stud with three mares. But instead he took a shine to another mare across a loch and swum to meet her.

The owners are now carrying out a DNA test to see if he is the father of Scamp, a black colt born last month on Shetland.

The Shetland pony now has his own

Facebook page with almost 1,000

friends.

.

which is, without a doubt, the saddest point of the whole tale.

1000 ''friends'' of an absentee father?

wonder if I could sell 'em shares in my new perpetual motion machine.....
