That little Shetland is loving his work! A happy horse is a horse with a job to do. Someone is going to have a lot of fun with that little horse 🤗
What a beautiful country ❤️…..
the sounds of the horses could put me to sleep. Our family enjoys tuning in all the way from Baltimore Maryland over in the States. God Bless 🙏🏼
I played this video over and over because the sound of their hooves was music to my ears so calming the most beautiful sound.
Love your videos the work you do is absolutely amazing,hello from Australia
I like Mr Hooks approach to training, he just expects the horses to do it. A no nonsense approach which gives the ponies confidence.

My mother, and by extension my sister and me.
If we can imagine it being done, then we shall expect it to be figured out and accomplished. Patience is the key though.
The sped-up parts are funny. At first I thought you had invented a new gait - the Super Trot!
I guess Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a tool to get back into an instagram account?
I somehow lost the account password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me
@Gordon Shiloh instablaster ;)
@Cohen Nixon I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im trying it out now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Cohen Nixon it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thanks so much, you saved my account!
@Gordon Shiloh you are welcome :D
The Shetland looks happy to work

I love the water scene!
That is the cutest Shetland pony ever!
It's a fact pound for pound a Shetland is stronger than a large horse. I been to many pulling contest and when looking at the weight classes the ponies pull more weight per pound of animal than drafts! Shetlands were bred to work! They were used to carry ore out of mines. I know they are extremely underrated in their abilities and comparing them evenly against a regular 15.0 hand animal simply isn't apt. I am training a team of team of ponies and wondered how far I might expect them to travel easily doing as this little guy is doing in the terrain he is now. Great video!

I mean frankly one of the reasons why plenty of people steer away of shetlands - or are atleast wary of them- is their manners. Yes, most of the ill-mannered ponies get that way because of the lacking skills of their owners and handlers, but there will also always be the "bap apples" which ruin the whole bunch for those interested.
I wouldn't buy a shetland, but I would consider the breed atleast. But I mean one can argue that a shetland wouldn't fill out my criteria anyway. Too small, the uses are even more limited, the temperament issue and most shetlands having some kind of proplems andnI'm not up to getting a foal for starting off with a clean slate.
I love the sounds of horses hoofs on the road

Lmao the little pony is a champ. I think he pulls better than the big pair! Hahaha must be a seasoned veteran xD ♡♡♡ love it
It is fun to contrast the little pony with Roly and his teamate. What a beautiful pony.
Lovely little driving pony. I believe he is one of those that just trots right into everyones hearts :-)

Good ,both riders seem to be confident & pony is quite under control ,& command ,nice ,pl upload such more videos for encouragement especially for women participants
Was wondering if special shoes are needed for those hard roads. To avoid hoof and leg damage.
No, just standard driving shoes. We do however ask our farriers to leave more hoof wall than they normally would, to act as a kind of shock absorber.

Love this, especially all the giggling :D Shows how much fun you can have :D
Silly question time, what is the red band around the ponies neck and what is it's purpose?
I love how the majority of your drivers are so considerate, I was we had the same.
the band was a neck collar like a halter but just like a dog collar for horses
it's amazing g how strong these shetlands are , I have 2 this driving is good for them , any way horses were meant for pulling not riding
Look at that Shetland go!

How fun. Beautiful roads to go on.
Awww, the Shetland looks like my Dusty! And he is a carriage pony too!
What a cutie!
No doubt about it, what the tinies lack in size they make up for with busy. I love how they go so well in traffic.
Is the Shetland shod? Little hooves were going too fast for me to check for nails 😂😂
It’s so stinky cute

Que bonito extraño a mi abuelito cuando el me saca de paseo
Fantastic ! I have 2 Appys one of which I have had in harness for 10 years, the other is too nutty to drive ! shame because they would make a good pair. please put me out of my misery ! is this somewhere in Essex or Herts? I was brought up in that area and i really miss it, the Black Country is no substitute ..........
Hi Andrew, this is Hampshire!
That pony; what a cute little shit.

i love horse foot sounds its giving postive energy
May I ask what the minimum size mini or pony I would need to be able to pull my girls and i.. All together we weigh 335 lbs? We'd be carting on mostly flat roads with minimal hill incline. Would like to for at least an hour or two ride.
Kinds late, the best thing to consider is the cart design and if it fits your horse. The weight of the passengers should sit on the wheels, the horse gets the cart moving and because of momentum and gravity the cart will stay rolling with minimal effort.
This heavily implies that your cart is properly balanced and rolls smoothly.
It's like pulling a wagon or wheelbarrow. The wagon is pretty easy to pull because the weight is on the wheels. A wheelbarrow is only hard if the load is by the handles or away from the wheel bearing the weight.
The pony was walking with a carraige
I'm amazed there are no vehicle drivers giving horn honks of impatience.
I used to ride a shetland pony when I was young. Her favourite thing to do was to dump you in a gorse bush to try and get the better of you. I swear she used to laugh at you when she did it
Love this! :D

With the little one trotting beside the big pair, they looked like '' before and after". The big pair looked at the little one going by like "What is that little thing?".
How cute 💚⚘
I love the Benny Hill stuff when you speed up the tape :)
The big horses seem a bit bemused by the tiny one.
好美的白馬 和最好聽的馬蹄聲 🐴🐎😍 I like horses
That teeny pony and those two comparatively huge horses. It's so funny :)
And the pony's so cute, what its name?
What's his/her name?? ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! And so happy, vivacious and Strong!!!!
Dear barry,thank you for sending me the video.It was helpful.Keep up the good work.
Do they ever founder after being driven on the road? Hard on the legs and splint bones? Love your site.
Hi Carolyn, no we have not found driving on the road to cause laminitis or splints. However, we do not take horses until they are at least three years old and even hen usually recommend they are turned away for the winter to mature and brought back into light work in the spring so that their joints can fully fuse where necessary. We also build up to the work we do steadily. Barry's old horse Roly worked on the roads from the age of 3 until 27 years old and never had a single hoof, leg or joint problem in all that time. A lot of problems people hear of from driving on the road come from being driven too hard and too fast and too young.
@@barryhook2 Extremely impressed w your horsemanship. Great patience and love for the horse. A solid character after Barry's training. So good for people to see this method building such confidence in the horse. Bless Barry .
I have to brown Shetland ponies called Rocco and Brandi one boy and a girl Rocco is Brandis baby

Que lindo😍😍
You got some amazing horses I am breaking my little Shetland to drive she is really good x
Wat a long distance tho!

Is this the wonderful Murphy, sadly passed away?
Yes it is Murphy; we were saddened to hear he had passed away at home in his paddock after eating some poisonous seeds that had blown in - his owner had been enjoying driving him after he'd left our yard a couple of months before his death and she was doing incredibly well with him. He was a promising little chap (he left our yard and went straight to Sparsholt for his first ever indoor competition) who had a bright future ahead; he's missed by everyone who knew him.
that's so sad
+barryhook2 awww...god bless his little soul...so sad =(
why "collars around neck?
They're neck collars - here's a video on why we use them: ua-cam.com/video/cUTyUprBl_Y/v-deo.html

I’m sorry, but those two large girls are way too much weight for such a little Shetland to pull, and especially through the resistance of water. I would have said that one of those girls would have been more than enough for that little guy to handle. He’s not a machine!
Hi Marisa,
Thank-you for your concern, however a pony of that size (weighing roughly 150 - 200kg) pulling the 'recommended' no more than 1.5x his bodyweight could comfortably (not at his maximum effort at all) pull around 225 - 300kg.
The adults in the video do not weigh 100kg each (they are wearing big coats, neither are 'large' girls) and the small 2-wheeled cart he is pulling does not weigh 100kg either. Even if they were all 100kg for arguments sake, the combination of all three of these would have put him just at the limit of his 'recommended' comfort zone and not above.
From rough calculations, the pony in this video is pulling somewhere between 150kg - 225kg, which is well within his comfortable pulling parameters, which you can also tell by how he is going along happily down the road. In terms of water resistance, although it may be harder work for him briefly, he is not being asked to travel more than about 30 metres in total (into the water, turn around and back out again) and is fully capable of doing so.
We do not ask our horses to do anything they are incapable of. We ensure they are fit and conditioned enough to do what is asked of them comfortably. We are very experienced with horses in general and of our horses as individuals. Although we appreciate that other people care about and are concerned about horses, we find it quite insulting when people suggest we are not doing the same.
Horses can pull pretty much on wheels, plus they don’t look overweight and aren’t riding him, they’re in a carriage
Pony❤️
How far can this little pony pull like this?
+Barry Hill Shetlands can't usually go as far as the larger horses as they simply don't have the length of stride, however they are normally strong little things and as with any horse, providing they are fit enough to do what you ask of them, there shouldn't be any problems. Its impossible to give a definitive answer to your question as the distance they can cover also depends on the terrain (i.e. hills), weather (very hot or very cold), weight of carriage, number of passengers, type of harness, surface (smooth road or rough bumpy grassland), whether it is dry or muddy, level of fitness etc. If you watch some of our other videos about shetlands (including some mini shetlands which are even smaller than Murphy) you can see them working happily over various distances at different paces (bear in mind a pair can normally go further than a team). We always ensure they are fit enough to do the work we ask of them and luckily we have plenty of different routes and carriages to enable us to provide them with a comprehensive fitness plan. Murphy's owners wanted to do driving trials competitions with him so he needed to be able to cope with different situations such as going into water and working in company as this is what he would encounter in the future.
+Greenleigh Baker how is this pony suffering?!? do u honestly think this fella having a job and being fed and cared for by loving owners is bad for him? .....seriously u need to be around horses more often.. i had a small Dartmoor pony that i saved when i was 10 yrs old....she was my friend and transportation for many many yrs and i saved her from certain death at the hands of her previous owners... she taught most of my family how to ride..then went on to teach my own children how to ride...we had to put her down finally at the ripe age of almost 38 yrs old...she was beautiful but ornery.. never took a bad step while pulling me around in a rickety old cart that an old farmer gave me...mostly we had 4 ppl sitting on the seat and shafts lol....i think she was the strongest horse i have ever owned to this day...she outsprinted EVERY single larger horse under saddle for an 8th of a mile that ever challenged us...was never lame...was very frugal to feed....even managed to recover from a bout of founder after getting into the feed shed once...i wish to this day i could find another like her and i would be very happy indeed..i surely miss going thru trails with a horse=)
bravo
She sounds like a lovely pony

+MegaNatasha13 Hi, the little grey shetland was called Murphy, the large grey is our horse Roly and I believe the coloured is a mare called Jess.

That’s too much weight for that Shetland pony for those two adults to be on its back
Hi Greta, you're right there - it would be too much weight for him if they were sat 'on' his back together. Luckily, they're not - they're sat in a two wheeler being pulled by him, not carried.
Judging from your comment you don't know about how a two wheeled cart works in terms of weight distribution so let me explain for you. The shafts (long poles either side of the horse) are not there to put weight through the horse's back. They are there to help with stopping (using the britching) and to help keep the horse directly in front of the cart otherwise he might veer left or right with no support either side. On a correctly 'balanced' two wheeler, they 'float' in the tugs (the ring shaped part of the harness the shaft go through) and you can see on the video that they are bouncing about a bit, up and down freely because there is no weight dragging them down in the tugs or pulling them up in the tugs as there would be if it was incorrectly balanced. There may be moments up or downhill or over bumps where the shafts move up or down in the tugs and there is some weight or pull on them - nobody is perfect all the. time and leaning forwards and backwards a bit as driver or passenger can make a difference - however there would never be the full weight of two adults on the pony in any situation. Even if the shafts were completely incorrectly adjusted and there was weight pushing down on the tugs constantly, the weight of the cart and passengers is still taken mostly by the wheels, or else they would have to be somehow floating along! Hope that eases your worries!
Just in case you actually meant you thought it was too much for him to pull in the cart, in terms of pulling, the pony is also well within his capabilities. A pony of that size (weighing roughly 150 - 200kg) pulling the 'recommended' no more than 1.5x his bodyweight could comfortably pull around 225 - 300kg. The adults in the video do not weigh 100kg each and the cart does not weigh 100kg either, which would have put him at his maximum comfort zone. He is probably pulling in the video somewhere between 150kg - 200kg, well within his comfortable pulling parameters, which you can also tell by how he is going along happily down the road.
Barry I still say it’s too much weight. I belong to miniature horse Club honey and I know how they work and I know how adults work until the animal gets sick or the back starts hurting and it has a hard time moving people won’t stop their habits. But I do appreciate you trying your best to explain others laziness. God bless you and have a great Sunday.
I love the sound of the horses and pony hooves on the pavement, but I would think too much of this would be bad on their hooves.
The poor pony its got two people on it and its trotting the big horses have only one person and they are walking that cruel
