    Hello from Oregon.

    Si is so cute! Watch out, I got one as a companion for a retired hunter and I’m on my third now. They are addictive!

    Dislocated hip, need help finding/making sling

    So I am excited to say that the little guy felt good enough that a very patient farrier was able to get his back feet done without any support beyond leaning on me. I had quite the snazzy little lift ready but if this works and he can stay on a 5-6 week schedule with everyone else, I am...

    Hey there from Iowa!

    My thoughts are with you! I lost my horse of a lifetime due to sleep deprivation, hopefully your very cute minion, I mean mini, will tip the scale in your favor!

    New farm!

    Congratulations! It’s a lifestyle choice, enjoy your passion. We’re 16 years in and still have a long list of farm projects. I loved that area when I was in graduate school, and no snow to slow you down!

    What color is he?

    Brown and white, grey and white and buckskin and white. None of which seems to be right😊

    What color is he?

    Thank you all for your help! One more question, he has some lacy looking white markings that I honestly thought could be scaring from rain rot given his rescue background. Is this a part of the coat pattern?

    What color is he?

    Hi, I have had this little guy since mid August, the rescue called him one color, the vet that pulled his coggins called him a second color and the vet that did his dental a third! I’m just curious, he’s cute no mater what. 9 years old.

    Hello from Indiana

    I’m near Indianapolis and I would love to find a mini club. After 24 years in hunter jumper land I’m ready for new things, not planning on showing these guys but they definitely love being given lots of attention. Bugsy is carefully learning some ground manners now that he’s getting his feet...

    Hello from Indiana

    Ozzie is the black one, he’s been here 12 years. My vet arranged for me to support stifle surgery he needed in exchange for a “free” pony. Unfortunately he broke his hip in May, and while he is managing quite well I wanted a slow friend for him. Bugsy was surrendered to a rescue a couple of...

    Dislocated hip, need help finding/making sling

    We did talk about that as our first choice but since the injury he’s not willing to let anyone around him laying down and we are afraid to cause him to struggle. I have security cameras and he got down with his stifle locked ( issue since birth, surgery made it intermittent versus always)...

    Dislocated hip, need help finding/making sling

    Hi, I am new to the forums (see intro I’m new member section), found this forum searching for info on hip luxation and femoral head fractures. Unfortunately my little guy has both, that said he walks anywhere he likes bearing his full weight on the bad leg and will trot/run when he is trying...

    Hello from Indiana

    Hello, I am excited to see this forum and connect with people who have also fallen for the charms of minis! I got my first miniature horse 12 years ago as a companion for my retiring horse when we purchased our own farm. I just acquired a second one to serve as his companion now that I am back...
