Miniature horses have become very popular these years and they are a great option for kids, as their size and tender nature make them more manageable to work with than larger horses. As most of you already know, miniature horses are generally very smart, curious, kind, and friendly. They love spending time with other creatures but the experts suggest that it’s still perfect if you let them live outside (with fit shelter) just like all other horses for their well-being and health.
Miniature horses were initially bred for their novel size, but they have since found many uses. Early miniature horses worked in mines, where their small size was an asset in the tight spaces. They also were valued as companion animals, especially by rich people. In our modern days, miniature horses are originally kept as pets and although most miniature horses are too small to ride, some owners drive their minis strapped to carts or sleds.
Furthermore, miniature horses are often used as therapy animals. They also work as guide animals by assisting people with vision and hearing impairments. They also can make great emotional support animals because of their kind and tender nature. In the video below, we can see a gorgeous mini horse who can’t stop prancing around the stable.
