Why does one of them carry a pony?

@DennyG100 - The wee Highland pony is the Black Watch Regimental mascot.

The statue is to commemorate the founding of the Black Watch at Aberfeldy, the first soldiers were recruited in about 1735 or so. They were raised by the British Government to to help control the Highland Clans. My understanding is they were called black watch as their tartan was dark and 'Watch' as they were watching the Highlands of Scotland for the government.
