Horses vs. Ponies. Size is a factor differentiating horses and ponies; the maximum height for ponies is 14.2 hands, and for miniature horses it's 8.5 hands. However, miniature horses are specifically bred to look exactly like their larger namesake, whereas a pony need not resemble a specific breed. Several distinct pony breeds exist, including the Shetland -- the strongest pony of its size -- and the Chincoteague.
