You should not give a horse oral Penicillin. Oral Penicillin can seriously disrupt normal microorganisms in the digestive tract which can cause diarrhea and abdominal pain (colic). For an abscessed tooth you may need to give Injectable Penicillin, but never oral. It would be best to contact a equine veterinarian and possibly an equine dentist, as the tooth may need to be removed.
If you have a 290 kilo horse (which is the average weight of a Shetland) he/she can hold up to a 70 kilo person. Keep in mind the height of the horse/pony as well you may end up with your feet dragging on the ground.
CONSULT WITH YOUR VET FIRST! I don't know what your mini has but I'm sure that there are probably many other medications too that are probably not as harmful or dangerous.You have to be careful with Penicillin and you have to make sure your horse (or mini horse!) has no known allergies towards it or other related antibiotics such as Oxacillin. Also make sure you are not giving it to treat a 'cold' because it will not do the trick as Penicillin is an antibiotic.Usually 1ml per 100lb, twice a day. ALSO MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE EXPERIENCED. IF YOU HIT YOUR HORSE'S (OR MINI HORSE'S) VEIN IT CAN KILL THE HORSE. IT CAN ONLY BE GIVEN INTRAMUSCULARLY, IF YOU SEE ANY RED GET YOUR NEEDLE OUT!
You should not give horses Penicillin for a cold, as a cold is caused by a virus and Penicillin is an Antibiotic and is not designed to treat a cold. You must let the cold run it's course, just like in a human.
