MINI HORSE WEIGHT TABLE
Because many medications must be administered based on weight, it is important to determine his/her weight accurately to avoid the complications of over or under-dosing. This weight table was designed by veterinarians who recognized this problem. To use the table, take a standard tape measure and measure your horse or pony's girth. Then use the table to determine his/her weight. Miniature Horse Weight Table from World Equine Veterinary Review/Vol.3:No.3: '98
