The Tiniest Ho

Friend of the site Sharon M. reminds us of the tiniest Ho story out of a New Hampshire Mini Horse Farm.


3 Days old in this pic, Einstein the mini ho stands near a giggling St. Bernard.


Einstein’s scale is insanely obvy when standing next to a traditionally-sized ho.


Einstein weighed just six pounds and 14-inches tall at birf.


Here he is IN ACTION!

    I loved the little legs fluttering at 0:47. And I loved the mini galloping at the end toooo!!!

  7. Mary (the first) says:

    Surely he weighs more than 6 lbs. though? My cat is about that size and she is much, much smaller than Einstein..

    Very cute little guy and I of course would love to cuddle it.
    But a tiny voice at the back of my head keeps asking, why?
    Why do we need miniature horses where will we stop?
    Maybe it’s just the rain making me grumpy.

    • Brad says:

      To have house horses… of course!

    • Wend says:

      Gigi… my first thought, always, when the topic of miniature horses comes up (though I almost never say it aloud)…. What good is a horse if it is too small to ride?????!!!!1!????

    Noteworthy sights: Third pic with majestic taileo blowin’ in the wind! And second pic. Not sure if it’s quite considered a photo bomb, but it works for me! Lol!!

    Love the “I want to give myself a good all-over shake but I’m kind of afraid I’ll tip over” at 1:11. Also love that he is so tiny, he can’t even fit the whole name and so he is just a ho’.

    • 6Rabbits says:

      I was thinkin’…perhaps there’s a better descriptor than “ho” for this sweet little guy? I was quite startled when I read the first sentence above, and quickly scrolled down not knowing what to expect! I was so glad it was a tiny hoRSE.

      That said…OMGosh what an adorabul baby! He almost doesn’t look real. Love the wind-blown tailio and black pattern on his face!

  17. Saffron says:

    OMG tinee ponee!!11!1!!111!!!!!11!11!!!

  18. Emmberrann says:

    If he was borned in 2010, he’s already 1 yr old by virtue of New Year’s Day having passed, do you have new pix of the great really big (hah!) Einstein?

    • dub1 says:

      *waves* see video link above: disregard the greasy owner and bask in the mini-stallionosity that is Einstein [one year, 60 lbs]. There’s also a cute one with him playing with a giant soccer ball.

  19. chanpon says:

    Puny pee-wee pony!!1!!

  20. Theo says:

    Nearly all my life, I thought The Tiniest Ho was Tinkerbell.
    No?

  22. Yael says:

    OMG PONIEEEES!!!!1!!!ONE!!!!

    I want this pony so bad I think I’m gonna cry.

  23. Awwww… Thanks guys. If you want more of moi– I have a facebook and twitter account and a website too. Just google me, and you can have all the Einstein you can stand.

  24. kathy says:

    6 lbs at birth?!?! My KID weighed more than that! Of course, she wasn’t all legs and schnozzle.

  25. Shona says:

    My Little Pony…for realz :)

  26. drawnale says:

    Cute horse, GREAT song. Anyone know what it is?

  27. Lilli says:

    Here’s a video of Einstein all grown up with a giant soccer ball: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hfTYbZ9ExXk&feature=related

  28. baileysgrandmom says:

    Watched the video–it’s a gas! But the little goatster pwns Einstein at the end–he can stand on TOP of the ball! (Leave it to a goat to show off!)

  29. Becky Slam says:

    Who’s gonna be able to ride a horse like that? Well, at least he won’t eat much!

  30. Jessy says:

    Precious video. I love the way the horses’ owner (I assume) lets Einstein’s mommy nuzzle him as they walk out to the field. :)

  31. junbug20 says:

    I WANT one! maybe he’ll use the catbox, if only they stay that small! p.s. would you all “ride” the saint bernard??
