Horses are made to amble around all day and run very fast very quickly, they are prey/herd animals. But they are constantly on the move. So, if your horse is in a confined area, like a stall or a paddock, he/she needs to be turned out in a pasture or large arena for at least a half hour a day, the longer, the better.

How much exercise does a Shetland pony need?
It would depend on the age of the pony and where he is kept. All horses (or ponies) that are kept in a stall need to get out daily if at all possible. If he is kept in a large pasture he will exercise himself to a certain degree. An older pony will need and want less exercise than a young pony. If he has pasture-mates, they will run and play together. But for riding 3 to 4 times a week is ideal.
