People tend not to take small ponies seriously. They need to stop laughing at their cuteness and acknowledge their dignity. I have had upwards of fifty Shetlands, Welsh and minis in my life. I respect them exactly.as I respect a big horse. And they respect me. Steve is doing the right thing.

I trained a little one like that to drive... Early on I was long lining her and just tripped, spooked her, I fell over and went body surfing 3 times round the football field with her pulling me just by the headcollar. Small but mighty. (The pony ended up a fantastic reliable driver)

Mini horse breeder here. People need to stop treating thse horses like dogs and letting them geting away with things , and then they won't turn out like brats. Not one of mine kicks or bites. People think miniature horses are cute and play with them. Treat them like a large horse .

So much seconded on the misunderstanding of small dogs. A friend of mine had a nervous, timid Pomeranian, and when she went out with him she had to be vigilant, keeping an eye on not so much him as on the people around. I have seen people squeal "CUUUUTE" and literally *swoop* at poor Red to pet him, and I was thinking "You idiots, don't you see he's growling and trying to hide behind his owner?" But they thought that a tiny, fluffy dog growling was cute!! Luckily my friend developed skills at backing such people off, so although Red snapped a few times he never bit anyone.

The video I watched was Steve work8ng with a big shire, Steve's head was at the withers. Then this video with the horses head at his hip. His need is to watch her feet but this little bitty thing is short, fluffy and broard. Makes it more difficult for him to use his usual cues. But regardless of size she has a horse brain. This owner is rather reasonable and has been trying to follow his videos.

IMO the lead was held too short and it was pulling her head up and in because Steve’s hand was higher than her head. He doesn’t usually hold big horses that close, does he? But excellent example that little horses have the same brain and behavior as big horses. Groundwork is groundwork and boundaries are boundaries.

We love each other deeply, really their mouth is the only way they have to communicate physically with us. She will grab my sleeve pull my arm in front of her, because she wants to lick my hand just like a dog does. Just like lipping she will give me a love nibble Not a Bite I’m ok with that because she loves me.

He always looks at their feet to get control and respect from them. He does not make eye contact with them. (Making eye contact is perceived as a threat, not as authority. Authority through self-assurance is the goal rather than authority through inducing fear.). You moving their feet makes you the alpha. He uses the act of moving the horse for discipline. If the horse acts up, he makes them move their feet - backing up, or circling him. Then he will make them release their hind end by moving their hind end sideways, making them cross their back legs in the process. That is automatically a ‘subservient’ action, since they cannot readily flee when their back legs are crossing, one in front of the other, while turning. After doing repetitive movement whenever they act up, the horse realizes how bored it will be to have to lunge circles yet again, and it chooses not to act in that way, the way that brings the unwanted activity.
