I am also a member of a few other general horse forums.
I am so upset at peoples opinions of minis.
There was a post where people were saying that minis are a waste of space etc.
Comments along the line of....
"they are useless, you can't ride them"
" if we could choose to get rid of any horse breed, it would be minis".
" why on earth would you want a perfectly good horse, made into miniature?"
I take it personally and can't help but think that if these so called 'horse lovers' opened their minds, they would also see just how wonderful these little horses are.
I came back saying that you don't have to be able to ride or show a horse to love it. Just like owning a dog or a cat. You don't ride those pets but people still love them.
I actually am very offended and almost feel as if people are criticizing my children! It hurts and feel as if I am spinning my wheels defending our little horses.
I often share photos on this particular board thinking that people enjoyed Bailey and Willow. I guess I was mistaken.
Just for the record, I love horses of all shapes and sizes.
Am i being to sensitive?
