Fire crews have been called out four times to rescue a tiny pony - because its legs are so short people think it's stuck in mud.

Two fire engines and a specialist lifting vehicle have been despatched four times at a combined cost of about £8,000 to save the horse, called Mayflower.

The animal's stumpy legs are so out of proportion with its long body that people assume she's sinking in the salty marshland where she grazes by the River Test in Southampton

Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service have now nicknamed the 2ft 4ins tall pony 'Shorty', reports The Sun.

Fire brigade animal rescue expert Anton Phillips said: "It looks like a cross between a Shetland pony and a New Forest pony.

"We inherit characteristics from our parents and sometimes something odd happens like this - it looks like it has a Shetland's little legs and a New Forest pony's long body.

"From 200 yards away it does look like the pony is trapped in the mud, especially when it is stood next to New Forest ponies which are about twice as tall."

Owner Sandra Whitcher said: "The emergency services have been out so many times they must know the way by heart. We might have to put up a sign so ramblers know the horse is not stuck.

"The only problem is that one day she might actually get stuck and then the fire brigade won't turn up."

Awwwww.

Don't just open your mouth and prove yourself a fool....put it in writing.

It gets harder the more you know. Because the more you find out, the uglier everything seems.

Makes me sad actually, these poor animals are results of lab breedings etc to make them so short, it's kinda cruel if you think about it, what they do to get these ponies.

We had a family dog that was half lab, half corgi. Lab coloring and body, corgi legs. When he walked in the snow, it always looked like he had sunk up to his armpits!

Cute pony!
