I agree with you on ponies. People don't seem to invest the same money and effort in training them, they just put kids on them and off they go and blame the pony. I don't think they're ornery or stubborn either by nature, they're just barely broke and yanked around without a lot of reward sometimes. :~D
Well she's good proof of how good they can be when handled properly.

Kristy's trying to find a small buggy/cart type. She's always wanted to train one to pull a buggy. I've been to a show once where little ponies like her were used to pull. That would be a hoot to do.

A small person could probably do well in the pony business.
