Agree 100%! It's hard but a good pony is worth sharing! 💗🐴

NOTE: the comments on this post have gotten taken way out of context of the intent of this post. In no way are we suggesting that anyone neglect their childhood pony, ship them off to the sale barn or let them go to slaughter. We aren’t even suggesting that you outright sell.

We understand that there are those people who are untrustworthy and have made it hard to consider. There are SO MANY MORE, like everyone in this thread, our Pony Pros, our customers that truly care about their ponies/horses and will bend over backwards to ensure the continued health and safety of the animals. We all know a family coming up in our circles that are great people just looking to create the same memories that the person before got with their pony.

That’s who we want to see good ponies who still have plenty of life left in them, a better life than the pasture, go on to. No you can’t guarantee what will happen if you sell, but there are many other ways to make agreements and arrangements that ensure the care of your pony or you get them back.

And there are plenty of ponies who LOVE their jobs! We don’t believe it is fair to those ponies to turn them out to pasture and not let them perform.

PASS THEM ON

If you’ve been into the horse and pony world long enough, you’ve had the opportunity to experience that special one, the heart horse, the one that gave you the confidence to continue and grow, the one you never want to let go. But you really should!

Too often, we hear about THAT pony. The one who did all those things for you or your child. The next thing we often hear is, "we're never going to let that pony leave." This makes us sad to hear. Unless the pony is crippled or truly has a reason to be retired, we want to ask you, why you're making that choice? Is it really for the pony? As your child moves up the ladder, are they really going to give that pony, who is now a pasture pet, the attention it deserves? Are you going to pay attention when the pony gets fat, sassy or potentially founders because it's not getting conditioned or used anymore. Is that really the life a good performance pony deserves?

By making the choice to retire the pony who isn't ready to be retired, aren't you robbing another child the opportunity to learn like your child(ren) did on that pony?

By choosing to keep this pony, are you really teaching your own children who have outgrown them the process and the circle that keeps this industry going?

What would have happened if the owner before you had chosen to keep the pony as a pasture pet? Wouldn't your child have missed out?

What joy are you robbing the next person of? Not to mention the joy that you feel when you see the next person succeeding? What about this life lesson alone...teaching your children how to give back, let go and cheer for the next person? That can be a hard one.

Don't get me wrong, I totally understand getting attached to an animal. I completely understand retiring one that is old, crippled and can't continue to perform comfortably or safely. But it's really important to ask ourselves WHY are we really keeping them and what joy, lessons and opportunities could we bring the next person if we let that pony go?

So please, if you have one of those special ponies "retired" in the pasture, pull them out, put a few rides on them and let them go on to the next rider. Be it the neighbor kid down the road who just wants to pet them, the family that wants to start and could use a few lessons, the rider who is looking for a step up. If your pony loves its job and is still capable, it deserves to keep its joints lubricated and sharing its special magic with the next rider!

🐴OPEN ARENA Wednesday May 14th 3:00-5:00 pm 🐴
(Weather Permitting 🌧)

Since it's Teacher Appreciation week, as an Equestrian Instructor I thought we would celebrate! 🤗

I've been spread thin here lately so I haven't been able to book lessons like the norm and trying to focus on my kiddos. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 HOWEVER, since children are our future of this industry and I never want any child to get discouraged. We have decided to have an open arena for kiddos to get their horse fix! Come watch, learn, or even bring your horse to practice! It's absolutely FREE! (Just make sure you sign one of our waivers if you haven't already done so.) 🐎

We have barrels, poles, & flags that can be set up to practice with. 🛢

Meet Buffalo Dun Running. Barn Name: Buff 🦬

A 3yr old Curly Dun Appaloosa Gelding. 14.h.h. This unique fella has curls everywhere. (In the summer his body coat does slick out.) Has a decent mane and tail for an Appy. He's built for the long haul. Currently starting under saddle. Knows groundwork, will turn into you to change directions, basic desensitizing, flex, back, takes bridle great, saddles decent. He has a good start so far. Buy now and train your way or keep him here or bring him back for more training. 🙃 He's gentle and easy on the ground, just not very trusting yet. Stands tied, grooms, leads, good for farrier and vet. Needs at least intermediate experience due to still needing more exposure and training. He has an easy going temperament.
UTD on farrier, coggins, & vaccines.

💲3️⃣8️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ Price will increase as training progresses. 🐴

Schedule a time to come meet this unique fella in person! Can't say I've ever seen one like him. He's pretty cool!! 😍

💥💥💥PERFECT CHRISTMAS GIFT‼️💥💥💥

Listing for a Client - Meet Axel 💪🏻
Dual Registered AQHA & APHA name BLING ZINGA 💎

Standing a solid 16 H.H.
DOB: 02/29/2020

If you want to turn heads everywhere you go this guy is guaranteed to do it! This flashy gelding has it all! Conformation, athleticism, brains, temperament, and plenty looks. Axel already has a proven show record. ROM open and amateur Halter. 20 points APHA. 2X Grand Champion Halter, 8 Reserve Champions, & Weanling Grand Champion at the Breeders Futurity. He also recently placed 3rd at the Tennessee State Show. He's had 120+ days under saddle at a professional trainer, but hasn't been ridden in approx 8 months. So he's slowly getting back to work. This boy could easily go any direction. Easy to get along with and nothing phases him. He's just ready for his new human to come along and take him to the next level!!! Easy to catch. Axel stalls great! He will lead correctly in hand and setup easily, stand to groom, tack up, blankets, pick up hooves, load in a trailer, & stand for bathing. His only fault is he has to be twitched to trim his ears. 🐎

UTD on coggins, vaccines, teeth, farrier (he currently has front shoes), and deworming. Pre-purchase exam welcome at buyers expense.

Here is a link to his pedigree:
