well, they all have fat bellys from grass hay and all they do is eat ,sleep and the odd time play.The trainer said they need a pick me up
They are not in training right now, I do spend time with them and one I am working with the basic on driving.Trainer is teaching me how to ground drive with her big/regular size horse and when she feels I am comfortable with ground driving and have that down then she will come to my place to help train my mini and myself together.
Go figure I have lived here for 10 years and did not know there was a horse trainer just 1/4 mile away from me.
She has been and won many championships in different areas ,she is now training my foster daughter to ride western or english, not sure whitch she will choose - but my daughter seems to really like western.
is it really normal for minis to be slugish,but I do have to thank my trainer who helped me with one mini gelding that would not come up to me always stayed at a distance away.He now walks up to me and later I will work on getting a halter on him without having to walk around for 10 minutes trying to get him.MINIS ARE DEWORMED EVERY 3 MONTHS
ok this is C.J and if you look down at the top of his back he looks pretty wide,he is 4 years old now
this is my black mare Bella now 3 years old who has the same big belly as what my gelding now 5 years old Justin is showing in the photo. They look fat or is it because I have been around working big horses. Even many photos on this site of minis that do not work look thinner than mine.They all look wide in the belly area,I fixed my fences since photo was taken and is escape proof now.
