                   Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some frequently asked questions, but if you still have questions please don't hesitate to call -- 408-607-1977.

How much time do we need with the pony?

One hour will provide rides for up to 15 children, no problem.  If you have more than 15 children, you may want to consider a second pony in order to provide time for rides, pictures and videos.

Is my little one too little to ride?

No!  Little ones can ride too.  Our ponies are gentle and friendly.  Also, parents are more than welcome to walk right next to their little ones, holding them securely.

Is there a weight limit?

Yes.  Our ponies can carry up to 75 pounds. 

What happens if an animal goes "poop" during my party?

Animals do this.  If this happens, we stop what we are doing and clean it up.

Can we feed the pony or petting zoo animals?

No; please do not feed the animals.  We prefer not to have people feed them at your party or event.  We have taught them that little hands are for petting, not for eating.  Don't worry, though.  We provide lots of treats for all the animals at home.

How much space do we need for the pony or petting zoo?
Not a lot of space is needed.  We will do pony rides up and down your sidewalk, or in your front yard or back yard.  The more space the better, but small yards work just fine too.  Even if it is raining, we can set up a petting zoo in your garage, and everyone has a good time.
Are you licensed and insured?

Yes!  We are USDA licensed and insured.

How can we pay?

By cash or check.

"I just met some of your ponies on Sunday at the pumpkin patch! How sweet and cute they all were. I am in love with Henry, your donkey!  Please tell your daughter thank you for letting me and my son take a picture with him. I can't wait for my son to be old enough to have you guys at a birthday party!!!"
