Our pony is a bit small for me, child has a new horse, and although we might get pony a sharer for a few days a week, I was wondering about teaching him to drive - as something fun to do. Problem is though, he's scared of 4x4s. Is always 100% fine if there's someone walking with him though, so we could stick to that. I don't know if blinkers would help, but if they wouldn't, are there any places off road where you can drive?
He's very willing, loves working and is feeling a bit down and unloved at the moment. It would be something his 'person' could do with him too, as after riding the loan horse she doesn't really have the motivation to do something similar with him.
He's in good health and has lots of good sense (self preservation being his strong point!). He's sensitive in his mouth and stops like a dream, too.
So what do you think?
