Pony

Ponies, Shetland pony, Pony ride

Ponies are horses in a smaller, sturdier package, and often the very first animal a child learns to ride. A pony dream tends to call up childhood wishes, birthday treats and the thrill of being handed something big for the first time. Ponies are strong for their size and famously willful, so the dream can be about something small with surprising strength, or a stubborn streak, in you or someone close. A shaggy pony on a windswept moor has a wild, hardy independence of its own.
