Nope, both of ours are full size horses. My wife Vickie's horse is a draft cross and is bigger than normal. When we rented pasture space from a neighbor, our horses ran with theirs and they had a couple of minis in the herd. My experience with those is that they have a whole lot of attitude and think they run the show. Pushy to the extreme and would bite or kick for almost nothing. That could have just been those two though. But the rest of their horses were fairly well behaved.

One of the minis got the idea of trying to push my mare around. Unfortuately for the mini, my horse has always been boss mare everywhere she's been and it got a swift kick for it's efforts. No damage done other than an attitude adjustment on the mini's part.
