How tall is a miniature pony?
It isn't about how old a horse/pony is before it is ridden it is about the age. The normal age for breaking in a horse/pony is around 3 y.o. It can take up to 6 months to fully break in a horse/pony. You can ride a horse/pony at any age as long as they are broken in or you are slowly bringing them into work ( breaking them in yourself). If you are able to break in a horse then you should start of with slow walks around the yard/menage/paddock etc so the horse/pony can start to trust you and then further educate him. I have heard of an 11 y.0 boy who was riding an 8hh ( hands high) shetland pony. It really doesn't matter how tall the pony is; it is about how tall the rider is. I would say a broken in shetland pony should have a rider aged 3 - 8. After this age you would move onto a 12-13.2h pony and by the age of 11/12 a 13.2 - 14.1 pony should be the right height and you will be able to keep the horse as you won't out grow it unless you are particulary tall for your age.

Can a 17year old ride a pony?
I would imagine that largely depends on how big the 17 year old is and how big the pony is. A tall heavy 17 year old would obviously be too big for a small pony. It would probably be best to ask advice from a reputable local riding stables.
