Hah, they are sooo cute :) I especially like the one who was like "you've got to be kidding me, there is no way in h*** you're getting me over those hay bales"
haha i love this! i never rode horses that small when i was a kid, i rode a qh about 14 hands high or so but now i compete in real races with people from all around
Lol shetland racing is soo cute, it's pretty funny when they're all running their little legs off round the track! I was going to race my mate's shetland a few years ago, she offered a while ago but i was finally waaay to tall hehe.
LMFAO!!! OMG! I sooooo want to do this with my jasper!! He is fast as hell and I'll be damned if a little hay bale is gonna stop him! XDD THIS IS AMAZING! RUN LITTLE LEGS RUN!
It's not cruel at all as StarPinoful said ^^^^ They can carry absouloutly loads of weight, so don't worry for them. Plus they enjoy this! And the riders would be on the floor. Shetlands are strong!
Lol they can carry the weight...I'm sure there was another reason for the shetland "go down" I used to ride a mare who fell with a child on her back, it wasn't because the child was to big... it was because her legs were unstable... I used to ride her and I was about 5'2 ft and what 6-7 stone, and she was fine with me before hand, and I'm the biggest person shes had on her... She even jumped out on a hack over a bit of tiny branch...
@Saartje05 How tall would you say is acceptable? I'm about 4'8. Is that too big? I wanted to start racing the ponies. I already jump, now all I need is a the pony and the experience of racing.
"Shetland Ponies are a LOT stronger than people give them credit for. They can carry around 200 lbs from what I remember... don't remember the exact number. They are STRONG little boogers." I mean a 13.3hh mare, that has carried 7-8 stone, and an 17 year old (me) at the age of about 29years old. The horse clearly had something wrong with it before she got on, as you saw at the beginning of this comment they can hold about 200lbs. There was clearly something wrong with the shetland...
@BlueRoan987 Yeah, on a shetland, its awesome fun, they are very strong ponies and can take an adult's weight. also I am very small for my age i suppose
@BadPony312 On a Shetland pony?!?!?! Or on a regualr-sized horse? I meant that older riders can't really race on Shetland ponies. Of course we can do that on regular sized horses. :D
but they are the strongest ponies and i am 12 and i still ride a shetland and me and him are going to olympia aswel he has jummped 90 cm easyly with we on him
double their weight? does that mean if the horse weighs 100 it can carry 200 lbs? that sounds wrong. To me, I think they could only carry half their weight. Or a fraction of their weight... anyways maybe I can figure out the weight difference is between kilos and pounds if you tell me the weight of kids and horses are. Thanks!
Actually, they're NOT 'made' for 5 year olds at all, most kids don't even ride at that age. They're too strong and too stubborn for small kids. Also they're too round for small girls, something that's very bad for their body.
Not really, these riders are quite small and Shetlands are very hardy and strong ponies. Do they really think they would race if they were being squashed by their riders
Hah, they are sooo cute :) I especially like the one who was like "you've got to be kidding me, there is no way in h*** you're getting me over those hay bales"
hehehehehehe... OMG this made me have to hold my stomach and laugh Out Loud. I so wanna do this !! Those Ponies are the darned cutest lil buggers
haha i love this! i never rode horses that small when i was a kid, i rode a qh about 14 hands high or so but now i compete in real races with people from all around

that would be sooooo fun
ooh so cute, hows the song called? xxx
@coolnaturegirl awesome!!!
wat is the maximum weight shetlands can carry?
Some kids really are too big for the ponies. Not that they can't carry them, but they're too tall and it should be a game for the little kids.
i love wandin but i competed there at a bad time we went the day that 2 horses died not good not good :(
Lol soo cute
what is this song call!? i love it
Shetland ponies are built to withstand heavy weight!!!!!!!
haha extreme cutnessssss
There's no way this is cruel. If it was it would NEVER be allowed in my country.
I'm 13 and I have a Shetland pony! I jump her and ride on trails with her!!!

@BlueRoan987 Yeah, on a shetland, its awesome fun, they are very strong ponies and can take an adult's weight. also I am very small for my age i suppose
cute !!!
POOR PONIES!!!!!!!!!!! YOU ARE A HARSH KID! DONT DO THAT! YOU WONT BE SATISFIED TILL U BREAK ITS BACK XXX
I am 5'2' would I be short enough?
@BadPony312 On a Shetland pony?!?!?! Or on a regualr-sized horse? I meant that older riders can't really race on Shetland ponies. Of course we can do that on regular sized horses. :D
lol! gawjus!!
acually thats fallabellas that cant be ridden mini are fine aslong as the rider isnt to heavy for them and shetlands can cary twice there own wight
Cute
good video quality... -_- =))
but they are the strongest ponies and i am 12 and i still ride a shetland and me and him are going to olympia aswel he has jummped 90 cm easyly with we on him
SO FUNNY
double their weight? does that mean if the horse weighs 100 it can carry 200 lbs? that sounds wrong. To me, I think they could only carry half their weight. Or a fraction of their weight... anyways maybe I can figure out the weight difference is between kilos and pounds if you tell me the weight of kids and horses are. Thanks!
same ! :(
What is the name of this song?
Anyway, we name this in Dutch:
Pret met je shet. =D
@theerin2707 no it's cruelty when 5 year old riders train them cause if the kid has a habit the pony will have that same habit
yes, what is this song called
funny the last 1 waz like no fuck that!!
@clarameyer1234 but ponies have a special charme! ;) try it out...
Actually, they're NOT 'made' for 5 year olds at all, most kids don't even ride at that age. They're too strong and too stubborn for small kids. Also they're too round for small girls, something that's very bad for their body.
oooooooooooo poor ponies the kids r way 2 big 4 dem
IM SOOOO CONFUSED!!!
god its not cruel Shetlands can carry loads of weight so people just shut up its not cruel!
Not really, these riders are quite small and Shetlands are very hardy and strong ponies. Do they really think they would race if they were being squashed by their riders
Have a wonderful time
