But she  is all horse. Born as a dwarf to a miniature  horse, Thumbelina is officially the  world’s smallest horse. She may never  aspire to be a champion show-jumper – she is so tiny she  would find it hard to  jump over a bucket. But these things matter little to the feisty  Thumbelina, who has been  officially recognized as the world’s smallest  horse. That title was conferred on her in 2006 when the five-year-old  entered  the Guinness Book of Records. The real-life My Little Pony was  born on an American farm to a couple  who specialize in breeding miniature  horses. Normally these horses weight about 250lb and rise to a height of  34  inches when they are fully grown. But from the day she was born it was  clear that tiny Thumbelina would  never grow to that size. She weighed in  at only 8lb – the size of a new-born baby - when she was  born. Eventually she  grew to just 60lb. Her amazing size has been explained as dwarfism. This  makes her a  miniature of a miniature. She may be a mini-horse, but small  means beautiful as far as her  owners, the Goessling family in Goose Creek farm  in St. Louis, are  concerned. She likes to hang out with the cocker  spaniels rather than the other  horses on their 150-acre farm. “When she  was born, she was so small we thought she wasn’t going to  make it. She looked  very ill. We feared the worse. “Because her legs are proportionally  smaller than her body and her  head, she has to wear orthopaedic fittings to  straighten them out a lot  of the time. “But we love her and wouldn’t want  her any other way,” said Michael  Goessling, whose parents Kay and Paul bred the  miniature horses. She only measures up to the shins of the normal-sized  horses in the  paddock. Michael’s parents have bred hundreds of miniature  horses, but they have  never had one as small as Thumbelina. She has become  something of a  celebrity in her home town in America. She lives on a cup  of grain and a handful of hay, served twice a day. She is expected to  live to the age of 17 years because of her size –  normal horses live for about  35 years. “She was just a complete fluke and we call her a mini mini. She  is too  precious to sell. I think my parents would sell me before they part with   Thumbelina. She has that special Wow factor, which you only get when  you see how  small she really is,” said Michael. While she has the ability to get  pregnant and give birth, the Goessling  family have decided not to allow this to  happen. There could be complications during the pregnancy, they believe,  so it  is better to avoid the risks. And also they don‘t feel it is right that   the gene which creates dwarfism in horses be carried on through future   generations. <img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/default/happy.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":)" title="Happy    :)" data-shortname=":)" /> </blockquote>
