Does anyone have a harness for driving a mini horse? I have two borrowed minis now keeping Gunnar happy for awhile and the one is excellent in the cart. Maybe it is too late to try driving, especially having seen a mini run away with cart attached and owner on the ground here yesterday. But I have an arena and could stay in there. Gunnar also was trained to cart some years ago but would be bored to tears in the arena. I can't see it is anymore dangerous than my new Corgi who stays right at my feet and has already caused me to fall onto my elderly knees!!! Jean Gayle I use the harnesses, I have but I can point you in the direction of some very nice harnesses. Sounds like those minis need to start over and have a refresher course, starting with ground driving. Camptown Harness has this wonderful "freedom Collar".. bought one for Maggie before I got hurt. Haven't been able to try it out yet..but can say it is very nicely made. _http://www.camptownharness.com/index.php?pg=Just%20for%20Minis&PHPSESSID=514b ada8d432e3230d89339d31c86259_ (http://www.camptownharness.com/index.php?pg=Just%20for%20Minis&PHPSESSID=514bada8d432e3230d89339d31c86259) If want more links.. I can send more..just ask. ;O) As for mini's driving.... depends on the Mini...just like their larger counter parts. I trust my Mini mare Maggie with my whole heart.
