Tackmann's Cookie, a Danish squad listed pony who has competed internationally with three riders, has been sold as a schoolmaster. 

The 13-year old German Riding Pony Tackmann's Cookie is by Can Dance out of Maibritt (by Neckar). He is bred by Karl Heinz Bruns and was owned by Christina Beck.

He became champion of the 2013 Meckenburger pony stallion licensing in Germany. Under Wenke Kraus he was competed in the young pony classes and finished 7th at the 2014 Bundeschampionate as a 4-year old.

The buckskin moved to Denmark and was first competed by Mette Jyde Hansen before Mathilde Sofie Jepsen took over the ride in 2016. The pair made its international debut at the 2018 CDIO Uggerhalne and competed him internationally for two season. They were 9th at the 2018 Danish Pony Championships and got bronze in 2019.

Cookie then sold to Cecilie Maria Schrøder Dreymann and she showed him nationally in 2019 and 2020. They were fifth at the 2020 Danish Pony Riders Championships . They sold him to Anna Munkebo, who premiered him in 2021 and rode him internationally for one year in 2022.

Cookie sold to Cecilie Gautier Christensen and she campaigned him internationally in 2023 and 2024 with the 2024 Nordic Baltic Championships as career highlight, finishing third in the kur to music and winning team gold. At the 2023 Danish Pony Championships they were fourth and in 2024 they were 12th.

Cookie will now continue his sport career as a schoolmaster for Elinor Serup Jensen of Stuteri EVO. She has been showing ponies Goldini and Lykkehøjs Wildfire of Dornik. 

"Cookie has taught me an incredible amount and I’ve enjoyed every second with him, he truly is one of a kind," said Cecilia Gautier Christensen. "In just a little over 1 year we came an incredible amount, he took me around to my first national event and then to several international events.
He was really my dream pony and we waited a long time for him therefore our time together didn't last long, but it has been absolutely fantastic. There aren't many like you Kuks."
