How much weight can 12hh horse carry?

A pony this size needs a small rider. A weight of 50 to 80 lbs would be ideal. Depending on the build and health of the pony may also factor into his weight limit. Remember too, if a child starts to outgrow his pony he can always be trained to pull a cart. A 12hh pony can easily pull a cart and full grown person. Warning:If your pony has never been trained to drive don't try to do this yourself. This can be dangerous if you don't know how to train.
