Re: Any Mini Shetland experts
a shetland is a miniatre if it is 34 inches high over that it is a standard shetland. as for riding, you would only put a small 2/3 year old on the back of a 34 inch, they are sturdy but a shetland ie 36 inch could b ridden by a small lightish child it would depend on the size of the pony and the child. common sense shold tell you, you wouldnt put a 2 year old onto a 15 h and you wouldnt put a 15 year old on the back of small pony/shetland is this for you or a child
jenn - our min shetland drives a small one peron cart with ease |
