About Us!
Founded by Malia Marek, a 13-year-old entrepreneur with a vision, Pony Doodles™ started as a heartfelt way for Malia to stay connected to her horses during the pandemic, and has since blossomed into a thriving small business.
Malia, who dreams of one day opening a horse rescue facility, has always been driven by her love for horses and helping others. She owns two Morgans—her heart horse, King, and the spirited Dale. She spends her days riding, taking lessons, and learning everything she can about the equestrian world.
In 2020, at just 9 years old, Malia created her first Pony Doodle as a way to feel closer to her horses while the world was on lockdown. This whimsical creation quickly captured local attention, leading Malia to bring her idea to life at the Morgan Grand National Horse Show in 2021. From there, the magic of Pony Doodles only continued to grow.
What started as a small creative outlet has turned into a joyful business that brings smiles to children, trainers, and horse lovers alike. Each Pony Doodle is a hand-crafted, playful representation of the love, fun, and spirit that horses bring to our lives. Whether it’s a gift, a keepsake, or a fun way to celebrate the equestrian lifestyle, Pony Doodles are designed to bring joy wherever they go.
Pony Doodles is more than just a business – it’s a way to give back. Malia donates a portion of her earnings to charities that she cares about, and she continues to learn and grow as a young entrepreneur. Her journey has taken her to events like the Nebraska Charity Horse Show and the Monarch Series Championship Horse Show, where her Pony Doodle Relay Races have become a beloved yearly tradition.
As she continues to expand her business, Malia’s vision remains clear: to inspire others through creativity, connection, and a shared love of horses.
Thank you for supporting Pony Doodles – a little piece of Malia’s dream, brought to life with heart and horse spirit!
