Location: Smack Dab in the Middle		I don't necessarily have senior horses, but I have one that will be having surgery and subsequent stall rest. I bought him a mini because I didn't want a goat (tail chewing and climbing on stuff) or a donkey (braying), and don't really have the acreage for another horse. He HATES the mini with a passion!!! My other two dislike it too. They are finally tolerating the mini (and by that I mean they are no longer trying to run him down and kill him). The horse that I bought him for still bites him and will chase him some. For those reasons, I did not pony proof my fence...the pony can get under the hot wire to safety, but he is herdbound enough that he still stays close.
I have a 25 year old horse on pasture at my in-laws, and I couldn't get a pony for him--he's scared to death of them. He's one of those, always been solid as a rock--never spook at anything--old reliable type of rope horses...unless there is a pony around. He's never gotten over his fear of ponies.
