I will try to get some better pictures today. The only one I really have now is the one in my avatar. We are enjoying them so much!

I just bought this mare today!! I didn't even realize the wonderful bloodlines she had until she was already here. I had gone to look at another mare and fell in love with her when I started handling her. We call her Abby because I didn't know any other name for her aside from her registered...

She's here!! Her name is Midnight. Will post more about her and pics later..my house is a mess since I've been horsin it so much lately. lol

Thank you for posting these, they are great! Makes me wonder what i can get into with our minis this year...

Wonderul pictures! We have a friend with an indoor and I am very grateful! lol

I think we may have found another mini! I met some really nice people that are only about 15 minutes from me. I had talked to this women before when I was first looking for a mini and she told me about a great kid mini she had that wasn't for sale. A few weeks after we bought our guy she...

Oh I see what you are saying. I bought this guy from a friend of mine who bought him at an auction about a year and a half ago. She had told me how great his personality is and she had all of the photos of him driving so I took a chance. Just didn't turn out how I had hoped. I actually am...

Messed this up when I edited..reply is in post below.

Thank you, I went and bid on this video. I have been a member of NWC for a while but I think joined after this date. My plan with him at this point is to keep working with him and keep my eyes open for a more experienced driving mini for the kids. I had planned on sometime having 2 anyway.

I will work on this, thank you. I think I'm going to order a cart today...we don't even have one here. I keep finding minis that "were" driven. I have yet to find one around here who is actually driving right now. The ads all say things like "previous owner used to drive" "haven't driven in...

Thank you, so much great info! I really appreciate everyones help. I looked back at the photos I have of him driving and he is hitched to a metal ez entry cart just like the ones my friends have so I don't think that's the problem. My kids are 13, 12, 9 (almost 10) and 6. My 9 year old son...

That is kind of my plan Susanne. I am currently keeping my eyes open for a quiet beginner driving mini while still working with Oreo.

Thank you JMS Miniatures, I know exactly what you are talking about! Thank you for the video too. I actually used this method to get my full size mare to load onto the trailer. I actually have the Clinton Anderson fundamentals videos and am planning on going through them with Oreo this...

Thanks, I'll repost it there. We definetly aren't hitching him any time soon! My friends plan is to take him back to basics, dragging the poles, tires things like that. We don't want to hitch him to a cart until he is totally calm about the whole thing. It's hard to explain things on here...

I tried to repost this in the driving forum but I couldn't copy and paste it for some reason. I have posted about the mini we bought for my 9 year old son who wants to drive. The gelding is 8 years old, has been driven but not for years. I took him to the indoor last week for my friends to...

There was supposed to be a photo with this but I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I haven't posted here in a long time because we didn't have any minis for a while. Brought home a new guy today Spring Valleys Blue Skies aka Oreo. I got him from a friend who bought him for her grandchildren but they weren't very interested. He has been trained to drive and to ride but it's...

At first I was really embarassed that I had posted this here. Then I thought...I'm really glad I did, who knows if I ever would have figured it out otherwise, well at least before she got way past her "due date".

Well I'm glad about that at least Jess, I thought maybe I had completely gone of the deep end.
