I have trained many breeds, but the ones I have now and will forever on, are Haflingers. They are really big ponies. Draft ponies. I find them to be the perfect homestead pony--they are very gentle and smart. We ride and drive, and I hope to plow plow or plough, agricultural implement used to cut furrows in and turn up the soil, preparing it for planting.

They don't eat much to keep up that awsome body. An adult can ride them all day long because they are so strong, but at the same time a child can handle them because they are so gentle.
