I'll admit it. I'm 5'9" and I technically own two ponies. Mosh, I would 
not trade for any taller horse in the world. I always get compliments 
on her. Her proportions, looks, way of going, etc. I love that mare. 
She is 13, had her for 7 years and she is delicate, but strong, bold 
and big in every way but stature. Her heart is as big as any horse in 
the world and she handles herself like a mountain goat, can get up and 
down and in and out of places and has never been lame or had any 
soundness issues. Mosh is mainly CMK/old American lines-lots of Alice 
Payne breeding, and I trust her with my kids as well. Other mare is an 
Egyptian/Polish cross, same height, but built like a brick house. Feels 
big, but rides smaller than the petite mare. Still is very agile, sound 
and an easy keeper.
I love the small ones now, I don't have to duck as far under branches 
either, and when you are tired at the end of a ride, it's always easy 
to hop back on. It really is how big they are on the inside that 
counts, not the outside. To me, a good horse is a good horse regardless 
of size, color, or breed.
