Just want to point out that intentionally breading dwarfism into animals is super unethical and causes a shit ton of health issues.

Do rescue, we have mini cows that people get and then have tons of health problems. %100 it's fucked up what people do. Also have 6 pigs 4 potbelly and 2 meat pigs...all came from the city where people thought they were mini pigs...there are no such thing.

Well, there's mini pigs if you intentionally malnourish them when they're babies.

Small relative to full size horses, but they're still over 3ft tall. Horses like in the picture are most likely bred to have dwarfism.

It's like saying miniature pigs are small. Yes, compared to their 800lb cousins, but they still get to about 160lb (which is a very large animal).

Now I'm imagining someone in a wheelchair being drawn by a tiny horse, like a chariot. 🙃
