Ive been working with Rosie… but we’ve got this disconnect now when we are driving. Ive pulled at her bit simply because I don’t what else to do. When I ask her to stop sometimes it feels like she’s ignoring me but I think it’s because she’s scared. And now backing is hard, at times stopping and...

How could we do a fun challenge on this forum for all minis for all levels. A costume contest? Obstacles? I thought it might be fun. Don’t know what details to figure out. Thought it could be fun but don’t know if anyone would want to be interested.

Ok I will post pics in a couple days… but the harness I have for Rosie does mostly fit. I need to figure out the shaft loops and the I need to modify my traces to the cart I currently have which has a hook attachment. Do you think that I could get new shaft loops that are smaller? I feel like...

Ok so I’m realizing there is so many (so many) things you can do with miniature horses. I keep discovering new events and things people do competitively so I wanted to know what else can you do with these amazing tiny horses!?

Ok so my harness I notice is going to hold the cart to low and I still need to figure how I’m going attach the traces and I would love any advice/ how to modify or figure it out.

Ok this is not my horse but my friends. She has a mini horse named ash and he has been going after her dogs, chickens, and has reared up, kicked, and bit her. She said she is going to try a calming medicine but idk what this little mini needs. I’m concerned someone or something might eventually...

Ok I did 4 ear bonnets to test if people will buy them with 4 different colors, designs and sizes. I made 2 bigger ones and wanted to ask if the would be a small pony, Shetland or just a bigger mini horse size because I put them on Rosie and they were little to big. Here’s the 4 designs included...

Ok so I’m thinking about selling mini horse ear bonnets. I was wondering though who would buy them? I search mini horse ear bonnets, and not a lot comes up. It makes me wonder if no one really wants mini bonnets. Or if the designs out there are boring, aren’t necessary, and harder to sell. I...

This will be a thread I’ll hopefully be able to post cute, pics, vids and more! Like this liberty vid!

Does any one know if it is possible to do button braids on a really thick mane? Also if so... HOW!?!

I was picking out my horses feet when I noticed she was being sensitive about one of her front feet. It was covered in mud so I couldn’t see what it was… I then washed the mud off on both front feet ( to compare) Does anyone know what this is or is it just a rash? First one the normal one second...

I made a ear bonnet for my mini horse but she won’t wear it that long until she shakes it off. How do I keep it on? She looks adorable in it!!

Seriously are bits necessary. Can anyone give me a reason to use a bit if I drive my horse? Why can’t I do the same with no bit and just rings on side of mouth? I’m going to do more research myself. But just wanted to see peoples opinions on here…

Question Would you rather breed your mini, or rescue a mini in need of a good home. Im on team Rescue. What team are you on?

I want my mini to learn how to bow and I have been trying to teach her for over two months with no treats. Just with rubbing, releasing her in field, and taking the pressure off. But She’ll do fine then I make mistake and she doesn’t want to do it any more, then we get better then we don’t do it...

I want to teach my mini to ground drive. I wanted to know what equiment I would need, I already have driving reins ( they came with a mini backpack i got for her. It has a ground driving option) I've looked at video after video and just wanted to check, Do you use a surcingle for teaching a mini...

Should I start a training journal? I saw that some people on here have training journals and I wonder if i should start one? I would just say what we did that day and maybe sometimes post pics. What do you guys think?

1: How do I tell if my mini horse is in shape. 2: What are good exercises to keep her in shape. I currently do obstacles, liberty, tricks, trail walking, walking on roads, etc. Here are some photos of her currently.

I have a very cute little mini horse named Rosie. I have had her for about a year, when I first got her I didn't know how much training she had. So I did lots of obstacle training. She did very well and was very agreeable with everything I asked most of the time. For a while she would try to nip...
