Question

my mini
how much weight can my 31'' stocky mare safely carry on her bak


Answer
Hi Baker-
Thanks for your question. There are as many answers as there are experts but the general rule of thumb is less than 70 lbs. (per the AMHA) and not for great distances. They are really better suited for pulling. Hoipe this helps. Best, Toni P.S. Your mini is REALLY cute!
