I have a 12.2hh pony up for loan and had a few people ask me about him and if I can send them some more pics etc. afterwards they say oh he's a bit on the small side isn't he? ummmm no he's 12.2hh in pics and in reality.
a few years ago I advertised for a sharer for my 17.2hh, someone came out after lots of talking on the phone and first thing she said was "he's bigger than I thought". again it's clear he's 17.2hh.
why do people think that 12.2hh should stand more like a 14.2hh. when I see adverts for horses I know roughly how big it will be compared to me yet a lot of people I've "dealt" with over the last few years seem to think that it should either be bigger or smaller than they've been told.
has anyone else noticed peoples perceptions when it comes to height?
