Studiowvw- Thank you.

I have single harness for my EE cart. I would only do collar and hames when I put them to pairs in my four wheel carriage. I had heard several people say the collar really freed up their shoulders and increased their pulling power. I have no intention of putting them to any heavy pulling but if...

Do you like the collars and hames? I considers putting them both in draft style since they are both heavier bred minis. I might just order a set of pairs and buy single parts if I need to. Thank you for your info.

Will a comfy fit breastcollar buckle into a ozark carriage traces? Also i am considering purchasing a full comfy fit harness for my other gelding and hope to put them to pair next year on a four wheel carriage. I see on on Chimacum's website you can change out parts to make a single into a...

CZP1-Very informative video! Thank you for posting. I like how he explains why things are done. I wish somebody would do a video like that with a mini. Hobbyhorse23- I will make the adjustments and try to take pics this afternoon (if it stops raining) or tomarrow. Please come back and...

Shorthorsemom- Thank you for the critique and compliment on my gelding. I forgot that in above reply!!

I can't bring my breeching forward because that is the only place for it to loop thru on the strap from the saddle to the crupper. He is not a big butted boy but all breeching seems too small!! I thought I might need to lift it and my collar, the curved collar is new to me and determining where...

I received my new Ozark Mountain carriage harness the other day and I hitched my gelding up on Tues. I didnt really drive him that day but took pics for review. I was ground driving behind the cart in this pic. My gelding is 36 in and I was reading a previous post saying most "B" minis are...

Thank you Sue! That looks like what I need!

Thank you for the advice, I will definately be putting those suggestions into practice! As far as chiropractors go my sister in a liscensed human chiro and is also certified on horses so we have went that route and found nothing of significance. He acts like when I train a big horse and they are...

I have a couple questions about hooking a drag tire to the horse. How are the traces attached to the tire rope? (pics would thrill me immensely) do you use your regular driving harness? How far away from horse do you place the tire? I have light weight PVC training shafts that I drive him in but...

I think at this point in time I would probably stick to ADS pleasure shows. I don't think the gelding I drive right now has enough grit to do the CDE's. He likes playing around on the cones in the arena but doesn't like heading out across the pasture and thru water holes. The other gelding I am...

I was also under the impression that it closed Dec of 2013. Thank you for your reply, I will call the AMHA.

Thank all of you for your help! Jules- I had that same thought you did, I don't show/ride my Quarter horses in synthetic tack so I wasn't sure how I felt about driving my mini in it. You seem to be in-line with all my other concerns too! What *if* I want to show and loving the feel of good...

I am having such a dilemma picking a harness!! I have narrowed it down to Ozark mountain Carriage harness with the V Breast Collar or Country Carriage Beta Bi with a Super V breast collar. I have seen the CC beta on several of the minis posted on here and I love the way it looks. It seems to fit...
