great expectations

I was browsing the Sacramento Craig's List when I saw an ad for a shetland pony. It is from someone who wants a pony for a children's photography business. Listed in the requirements is "able to stand in one spot for 3 to 4 hours daily." Now, I realize ponies can be taught to whoa and to stand for a time, but 3 to 4 hours is just not reasonable! I hope nobody sells this guy a pony claiming that it can do that.

Oh No! I wonder if they wanted it to dance and sing songs too?

They need to buy one of those toy ponies, Butterscotch!

I really do think that non-horse people think small horses and ponies are more like dogs than horses.
