Disclaimer:
Safety is always the responsibility of the horse handler. As with all equestrian sports, horses big and small are unpredictable and can be dangerous. Handlers must always use caution and keep safety in mind at all times. Handlers assume all responsibility in case of injury or even death; we will not be held liable in any way. Please check your tack often to make sure everything is fastened and secured properly. Do not use tack if something is missing, broken, or if there is any damage.

Put Safety Always First! |

Safety Tip: Always check your driving harness often and make sure all parts are working properly and fastened tightly to ensure you and your horses safety. Look over your cart from time to time and check to make sure all the bolts on your cart are tight. Also remember to check the lug nuts on your wheels to ensure they are secured. You can use Loctite on your lug nuts as an added precaution to securing the wheels to your cart.
Safety Tip: Always carry a driving whip! Would you ride a horse without your legs? Not a good idea if you can help it. When you are ground training or driving your mini, it is important to carry your whip... its like using your legs for aids! Use it to ward off barking dogs too!
Safety Tip: Never allow objects (other than your driving whip) outside of the cart while it is in motion. Horses can be spooked and run away causing severe damage and possibly even death. When taking a passenger with you, instruct them on cart driving safety. Remember safety should always come first! Have fun & Drive Safe!
Safety Tip: We always recommend using harness pads with all harnesses during daily training and pleasure drives. Harness pads give your horse the added protection from harness pressure and avoid rubbing sores. Be kind and keep your horses happy while using harness pads. Your mini will thank you by working harder and enjoying it.
If you have a safety suggestion please tell us, we might ad it to our list!
Feel free to contact us with any questions you may have, we are always happy to help. Thank you for keeping safety in mind, and may you have many safe fun-filled drives this year!
