Abstract
"Who hasn't had visions of driving or riding a pony? It is one of the easiest, most economical and most rewardinghorse experiences you can have. A pony offers endless hours of companionship, experience, pleasure and peer recognition, both in casual pleasure use and in organized group activities. If you're a beginner, consider well-trained ponies for the activities you choose. Avoid spoiled ponies while gaining experience. If you're experienced, you may wish to train a pony from the beginning to better develop it according to your own wishes. For showing, your pony should be sufficiently trained to both your and the judges' satisfaction. It should start easily, walk, jog, extend the trot, be willing to stand quietly and back readily. Your pony should also behave in the presence of other ponies. During practice, work your pony on as many different surfaces as you can, including sand, gravel, sawdust, clay and turf. This practice will improve its ability to start cold under most conditions and accustom it to working with other ponies." -- first page
