Joeanne, I just wanted to welcome you too. I look forward to hearing more about your pony adventures. Your little guy looks very handsome!
characters and mental and physical toughness. I think of them like a force of nature. My pony is 12.1 hands and doesn't seem to notice my 10 stone weight. He always wants to whizz around faster than I really want to go at the time. I haven't had any nasty comments about me riding him yet because I haven't had him out and about, due to lack of a horse trailer. I do imagine it will happen though. I plan to have him trained and conditioned beautifully (working hard on that) then ignore the ignorant comments. People will either see for themselves Rusty can happily carry me or they won't. I love my pony so much and have so much fun with him. I'm not going to let anyone ruin it for me. When I get an additional horse someday it will be another pony. A little larger one so other people can ride out with me.
