The English speaking world measures the height of horses in hands. (One hand is 4 inches.) The size of the horses varies by breed, but can also be influnced by nutrition. The general rule for cutoff in height between what is considered a horse and a pony at maturity is 14.2 hands or 58 inches as measured at the withers (the highest point on the back, on the ridge between the shoulder blades), anything less then 14.2 hands is considered a pony.
