Hi,

When I get a job I am looking to purchase a cart and leather harness for my miniature Kevin, we have already started small training which is mainly just desensitising him to different sounds, objects, things being on him ect.

I look on line for carts being for sale, and I usually just search 'Pony cart' Or 'Miniature horse cart' and then it suggests I search:

Horse Sulky, Horse Jinker, Horse Trotter, Horse Cart, Horse Buggy, Horse Drawn Carriage, Horse Wagon.

Normally all of these suggestions pop up, but if I search 'Pony Cart' all of the suggestions will have pony in front of them eg, Pony sulky, Pony Buggy ect.

So my question is, is there a difference between these or are they all just different names for a cart? If there is a difference what are they, and what is best for me to search? Should I just keep searching pony cart?

Thanks!
 
Most people start with an easy entry cart, its made of metal vs wood so if a green horse freaks they don't break it to pieces like they could a wooden show cart. I use a metal on around the farm and training and of course the show one strictly at shows.

what a typical one looks like
