History.
Mini was given to use with another pony Merlin, he had been used as a companion pony, and was very unfit, and extremely fat. He was very strong and often pulled, he could not be ridden off the lead rope.
Current schooling
Mini is being ridden by a few young children and is extremely responsible with them, and is is a complete school master. He has pulled his cart once, and was very good. He is a little overweight, but is very fit.
Plans for the future
We hope that Mini will learn to pull his cart, and eventually have someone in it. His older riders hope to be starting to take him to shows, and competing at a very basic level on him (mainly in lead reign classes). We also hope to be able to take him into schools to educate young children about ponies as he is very friendly, and enjoys showing off!
Words from Mini
Hi I’m Mini. I’m a black 13 year old miniature Shetland. My best friend is Freddy. My show colours are supposed to be red and black but I secretly like pink (especially fairy wings). I am very handsome and love baths in the summer when it’s hot, but don’t like them very much in the winter. I also enjoy walks, but get bored of going to the same places all the time or always doing schooling. I love to jump and am very good at it! I am very friendly to everyone but I especially like Mona very much and want her to be my girlfriend!
