That is interesting Kim. I kept thinking about the housetraining but they said they can be trained. It really makes sense that horses would be excellent guides.

I saw a mini on TV that went into hospitals wearing a harness and special little Build-A-Bear workshop shoes to not scratch the floors. He was a special pony, as they called him. He went to all kinds of places and helped children. He was said to be totally house trained! It's awesome!
