Hello.
Me and my mother are planning to purchase a miniature horse by The middle of February 2012.
Before you get Judge, I have had plenty of experience Around horses. Horse camps, Trail rides, Lessons, ( Friends have horses) , And have plenty of miniature horse and horse care books! And of course lots and lots of research!

I have a few questions regarding Things i don't know so i'm getting your opinion.

First of all Should i shoe My Mini?
Im not really sure. I will not be showing it but i will be exercising it, Maybe even a few jumps here and there! ( And by the way, I mean lead jumping ! Not riding) Its going to be more of a pet.

Another thing is how often should i take it to the farrier / Vet check ups / etc?

This is all i can remember for the moment but if i come up with something else i will add it.

Cheers everyone!

Oh and i live In Australia ( If you need that)
