Miniature horses are a breed based on height.
There are two main registries for miniature horses.
The AMHA has a height limit of 34 inches.
The AMHR has two registerable height groups, 34 and under and 36 to 38 inches.
A pony is a miniature horse.
The miniature breed of horse is called a "Miniature Horse" but some other very small breeds of horse/pony include "Shetland Pony" and "Fallabella"
Designating a miniature horse as a miniature horse is determined by the height of the animal. The height of miniature horses are usually less than 34-38 inches measured at the last hairs at the base of the horses mane. This differs from a standard horse which is measured to the highest point of the withers.

Yes, there is a Schleich "Falabella" horse. It is the only miniature horse at this time. You can see it in the link below.
Wrong again. It is a horse. Go to the website for the Falabella. It says it is a miniature HORSE, not a miniature pony.

There is no such thing as a miniature pony, but a miniature horse is a breed of horse that can is less than 9.5 hands (34 inches) tall. Miniature horses have 3 main uses and I've used a miniature horse for two of them. The first use (which I have not used a miniature in) is show. Many horse shows are established solely for miniature horses. The next use is jumping. While you can't ride a miniature horse and jump, you can train miniature horses to jump over jumping poles as well as other obstacles. I have a miniature horse who is trained to jump over his own height. The last, common use for a miniature horse is therapy. Many mentally disabled people enjoy spending therapeutic time with miniature horses than regular horses because they are less intimidating than larger horse breeds.
