Yes, we are fully insured. You can download a copy of our insurance certificate under “Customer Support.” If you need to be listed as additionally insured, there is a one time fee of $100.00.
Yes. All participants' guardians/parents will be required to sign a waiver before any child is able to ride a pony.
No. Please do not bring your dog to the event, as the animals may spook and not want to participate in the fun. If there are any dogs at or near the event we will have to leave. There are no exceptions.
Yes. Weight and size limits apply for pony rides. Please understand that some of our horses do have weight and height limits. Similar to their larger counterparts, mini horses can safely carry around 20% of their total body weight. As an average mini pony weighs between 250 and 350 pounds, they could safely carry between 50 and 70 pounds. However, we must also take into consideration the weight of the saddle, which could be 10-15 pounds, leaving a weight limit of 35-55 pounds for one child. The child must also be under 4' tall to ride.
Our horses are with a handler at all times. There is no "riding alone," you must be led the whole time if you are riding.
The 10 animal petting zoo requires a minimum of 15×15 ft and can even be condensed to the size of a one car garage. Hand led pony rides can be led around in yards and down quiet streets. We will also need room to park our vehicle and trailer.
We have a very flexible cancellation policy. You can cancel or postpone your event at absolutely no penalty up until 24 hours prior to your start time. If you choose to proceed with your event, some services can be set up in garages or under awnings. We also offer tent rentals if they are available that day and time.
We will arrive approximately 30-60 minutes prior to your start time to setup (longer for very large events). We’ll need a place to park and access to the setup area. If your event is already in progress, children will need to be kept away from the setup area until all the animals are secured and we’re ready to start.
