This message is from: Lisa Sherrodd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I have twin daughters. They are 7. We have been having great fun this summer by hiking trails and taking the kids on their ponies with a lead rope. That way hubby and I get some exercise and the kids can come along. I still fully tack the ponies and allow the kids to control them, but I keep them on the leadline for added control from myself. That works well for us.
The ponies we have are registered Swedish Gotland ponies. They stand about 12 hands which is the perfect size for this. I figure we'll keep the ponies and use them for packing once the kids have outgrown them and moved onto their own Fjords.
