Lucy the four-year-old Shetland pony is just 19.5 inches tall and weighs around 100 pounds.

Her owner, Sandra Ponder, 63, who runs a veterinary surgery near St Albans, Herts, owns 14 miniature ponies in total.

Lucy is still dwarfed by the group. Her 'largest' pet pony measures around 34 inches.

But the tiny pony loves galloping around the paddock with the larger horses in the stable.

Lucy lives in a specially made stable that is so small it looks more like a children's wendy house.
