In Kent, England, there’s a special horse who has no idea he’s just 33.5 inches high. He’s small, he’s cheeky, and he’s got personality for days. Who are we talking about? Oh, that’s just Microdave—also known on the streets and in the show ring as MD.
At birth, Microdave made headlines for his super tiny stature. He was quickly dubbed as “Britain’s Smallest Horse” and wore the crown with great pride.

Thankfully, she was eager to share with all of our iHeartHorse readers about this tiny horse who has stolen the hearts of many—especially hers!
Just look at this trot and that expression!? Be still, my heart…
