I try to keep saddle soap and a soft cloth at the ready whenever I drive so that I can jus do a quick wipe down after I use them. If they are going to not be used for a while I'll do a light coat of neatsfoot oil and then put them either in their tote, in their harness bag or on their rack. The...

At my age, fighting is not an option. I use a corner. The head goes into the corner and the horse's side against the wall. I run my hand from hip, over the croup and down the leg. Not too slow, but not fast. I will do this several times (if they are accepting) more if not. Once the horse...

Is the axel moveable?

Thank you! Yes, you must be on top of things and stay aware when driving any hitch, but the more horses you add, the more aware you need to be. And I love driving my stagecoach!

That's so awesome! I use to do a lot of parades. The minis are always a huge hit!

Thank you Al! It was so nice to finally be able to meet you!

So, Team Awesome Appies made history at the AMHA World show this week! They are THE first pair to do obstacle driving AND win World Champion!!! It was so much fun, and hopefully we have inspired others to try it too! They did very well in open obstacle driving (another first at the World...

I use a Dodge Ram Promaster City Van for hauling 2 minis. I have a cargo net fastened to the anchor points for safety to keep them in the back. I have a lightweight rubber mat for the floor. I add Sweet PDZ and shavings to soak up any urine and I carry a lot of plastic grocery bags to pick out...

Actually, there are "munchkin" horses out there. They have full sized mini bodies on stumpy legs. It's a form of dwarfism. Not at all good. But it isn't what happens when breeding a full sized horse to a mini. JS. I used to enjoy this forum...it was super...

I'm not familiar with the genetic tests for LWO. Dwarfism, both parents MUST carry the gene. I will say the we had our mini stallion breed our QH mare and will say that he was the most beautiful, well put together pony that I had ever seen. He matured around 46" if I remember correctly. We...

Masks For Minis on Facebook. They are designed to fit Miniature horse heads and are made in the U.S.A. they also come in fun colors!

This is my daughter and her little speed demon doing cones at one of our ADTs a few years ago. The cart was bought for a song as nobody thought it was worth anything. It is designed like the lyre shaped racing sulkies, which for her horse, works perfect! Hubby added a seat back and added solid...

So here is my experience with four wheel vehicles. As a single horse, he is still between the shafts, the only difference is that in a two wheeled cart, the horse helps support the load of the cart and the shafts float in the shaft loops. In a four wheeled car, the shafts are carried in the...

I know we aren't allowed to sell...Masks For Minis. FB page. Super fit, super eye clearance, made in the US.

Mine is a rotary tool.

I'm using a battery powered polisher with Velcro sand paper. Works well. If it's all you are using, I would highly recommend extra batteries. The tool runs around $120 at Harbor Freight. Extra batteries are $25 each. The sand paper runs around $10 per pack, I cut it to fit the polishing head. If...

Two things here. RASPS...buy very good rasps, Heller Black is what I use. These rasps are SHARP! They run around $30+ depending on where you buy them, and will definitely cut through the hoof and skin. Always wear good fitting gloves. Cheap rasps aren't even worth throwing away, they will...

I had my Hubby build me a tie bar that slides into the receiver hitch. If your Hubby welds, perhaps he could make a hiliner that is secured to the tray in back that your cart sits on. Making it so it swings out, away from the van when in use then swings next to the van when not in use.

Will you have a generator? Where will it go? Just curious. We camo in our promaster city van. We have a butane stove to cook on, which works really well for us. I also have a jump starter that has an inverter that I can run small draw electric items with. Did you seal the plywood on the...

Here's the two boys all set to hit the trail. I have a battery fan to help move air better for them.
