                                     Additional Charges 

      Depending on your location, a travel fee may apply. We will let you
        know before you reserve your pony party. Please note, there is 
           a $30 fee added for all returned checks. All late weekend
      bookings made within 7 days from the date of the party or event
     must be paid in cash upon our arrival. Thank you for understanding.


                We are fully insured, however, if your event requires
               additional insurance coverage to be added to our own
             insurance, there may be a nominal fee you will need to pay
            depending on the circumstance. This service must be paid in
          advance and is in addition to the cost of the party. We need at
        least three (3) business days to work with the insurance company.

     

                                    What if it’s raining?


          We bring the ponies in rain or shine! Umbrellas can be used
           when riding if it rains. However, if severe weather were to 
                   occur, the rides may be cancelled or rescheduled
                                for another day available. 


                                   Is there a weight limit?

          Yes. Even though our ponies are stout and strong, there is a
                               75 pound weight limit for riding. 


                             What if the pony has to go potty?


             Our ponies are very good about "going" before they get
         to your place, however, sometimes they simply can't "hold" it.
    Just in case, we bring a poop bucket so we can clean up the mess
     and take it with us. Unless, of course, someone requests it for their 
                     garden. Afterall, it is completely organic!



                         Is there anything else I should know?


       Since you're wondering, we have a short list of important things
       to remember:

    * For the comfort of other riders, children must ride in dry 
       clothes or you may use your towel over the saddle.                   
    * Our ponies are used to being around dogs, however, your dog
       may be startled or intimidated around our ponies. We may ask you to
       restrain your dog(s) if we feel it's necessary.
    * Ponies have "blind spots" which means they cannot see directly in 
       front of or behind them. Even though they try to be aware of where
       everyone is, they may not see an unexpected child, so we ask that
       children do not follow too close behind or in front of the pony while
       moving or giving rides. 
    * Ponies are very sensitive. They can feel a fly land on their fur! If
       necessary, we will ask children not to kick or jump up and down in
       the saddle while riding.
    * To prevent fingers from accidently being mistaken as food, please
       don't feed our ponies. Ponies do love treats but get lots of them at 
       home.
    * The ponies have been taught to only walk while on the job. Please
       don't be offended if your child is declined the opportunity to trot,
       regardless of your child's riding ability.
    * The children need to be able to hold on securely if they're able, we
       don't allow food or drink while riding the pony.
    * For safety reasons, we only allow one rider at a time.



                                       Cancellation Policy

       If your event required a deposit, we do not offer refunds for cancellations. If you need to cancel your reserved event for any reason, with the exception of severe weather, you may reschedule and apply your initial deposit to a different date & time that is available.
