Would you get horse if you can?

They are not much bigger than dogs, right? Would it be a lot of work to have one of them?

Is this dwarf horse some kind of natural small horse species or a result of selective breed?

I can see it definitely have its place. It's not the same as a dog, and by no means I think a horse is inferior to a dog. So "why not get a dog" doesn't work for some people who simply want a cute little pony that will stay small. Haven't you seen horses can be just as friendly as a dog? They can lick your face nonstop too, not that I would let them.
Children definitely can rid on them. Think about if you have little kids, you can dress them up like little knights on horse back without looking small.

Since my personal opinion is based on the fact I haven't had much chance to rid a horse. If I get a horse myself, I'd go for a big regular horse instead of a mini-pony. The ability to rid my horse does sound more appealing to me, but if I were to get a second horse I don't mind a mini-horse along side the big one.
