The height of a horse is determined by the number of hands he is from the ground to the top of his withers. The king of England decided to measure them that way, so he measured a horse with the width of his hand, 4 inches, so each hand is four inches. Say a horse was 16 hands high. That horse would be 64 inches high. if you are measuring a small pony, you just measure from the ground to his withers in inches.
