To continue with the Miniature horse theme, here are pictures from two miniature horse classes I watched at the Lancaster 4-H show.

And here are pictures from the next class which had an Appaloosa and a pony. 

Miniature horses are adorable, so I enjoyed watching them jump last month.

It was a hot PA day, and there were multiple jump offs, so good job for running in the heat! It also allowed me to get plenty of pictures of them.

This would be a minimal type of other performance in terms of model horses. You’d just need a doll, halter, lead rope, and a jump. Or you can have a cone.  Just add in documentation, and you’re good. 

Per the PA 4-H Guide, going clear is the goal in the first round. Afterwards if there are entries with the same amount of faults, a jump off happens. In the jump off, the jumps are supposed to be raised and whoever finishes with the lowest amount of faults, wins. If there’s a tie again, the horse with the fastest time is the winner. With that being said, there are numerous instances of miniature horses standing,walking,

 trotting,

 cantering,

 and jumping!

Plenty of performance opportunities!

Between her classes were other pretty horses like this mustang. 

And these two.

I watched Miniature Horse Jumping too which is fast becoming something I need to do in model scale. I have pretty much everything needed. I would only need to make a halter, lead, and whip!

More pictures to come!
