goons, not heard that in ages!!
it makes me sad that the poor little beastie has been broken to drive at such a young age, unfortunately though this seems to happen a lot more often than you would think, and without sounding stereotypical/racist it happens a lot in the travelling community

I'm seeing it more and more!! I saw a 16month old colt the other day who had a child sat on his back in the photo and the ad stated he'd been used as a lead rein pony for their children!! Poor little thing:( the same people had a 2yo colt advertised, and his photo (bearing in mind the pony was only 12.2) had a guy sat on him, whose feet were near enough on the floor, and he wasn't exactly lightweight, put it that way!! I feel so sorry for these little ponies!!!
