How Do Little Ones Compare?

I haven't spent so much time around full sized horses so I am not sure how they compare in truth. I find the larger cousins of my little ones a bit scary in truth, and the miniatures were my family love.

But what are the personalities like-how do they compare? Mine are so feisty still, even the older one.

I think most people find that the smaller the horse, the more personality it has. Perhaps it's something to do with all the personality of a big horse being compresed into something one fifth the size?

I think all horses have personalities, its just easier to see on a smaller horse as they have less to look at/fit in your view better. I've never been bored by larger horses and each has their own quirks. Maybe not as cute as a mini, but still quirky.

I wish I knew why so many were fearful of a horses size. It bothers me a little when I was younger, but I remember seeing full grown's with more personality than the little ones.

It always seemed to me like little horses have something similar to little man syndrome. The smaller the horse, the more personality they seem to have, to make up for their stature.
