Right to Refuse Service:

We reserve the right to refuse service in the highly unlikely event we find a situation dangerous to the kids or our ponies. Your safety is important to us. If this event or circumstance is beyond your control we will be delighted to refund your deposit.

Before and After Your Party:

We will arrive early at your party to allow us enough time to set up so that we can be ready for you when the party begins. After your event, we may need to leave promptly in order to get to another event right after yours. In addition, our animals will want to get home once they are loaded up. So, it is important that we are not blocked in by any of your guests during the party. While we are setting up, we understand that everyone is excited to see the animals, but we ask that everyone stay away from the animals until we are ready. This is for the safety of you, your guests, your family, and the animals.

Pony Safety:

Ponies can walk on dirt, asphalt, concrete, grass, non-slippery or wet pavement, and other suitable walking areas. Ponies cannot walk on rocks, wet asphalt, or deep sand. Please let us know if there will be wet bathing suits at your party so that we can properly protect our saddles. We need to have easy access to water for our ponies. If there will be no water available, please let us know so that we can bring water with us. If the ponies are worked continuously for an hour, they will need a ten minute break in between hours.

Please understand that we need to take time to educate each child before mounting the ponies. You can help with cutting this time down by letting the kids know the following:

No yelling, smacking, hitting, running around, screaming, balloons, or toys, food or other dangerous behaviors on or directly around the ponies.
We try to make it fun for the kids even while waiting for the ride. That is why we organize kids into riding groups so that no one is standing too long in a line, but even with that, there will be some line time, so please explain to the kids that they may have to wait a bit for a ride.
No children are allowed to walk next to the pony when other children are riding, only adults/guardians/parents may walk along side the pony but not in front or behind the ponys.
All riders must hold the horn on the saddle at all times. All though the kids may want to pet the pony while riding and pretend they are Wild West Bill on the Pony and wave their arms, we need them to stay put and safe :)
We walk our ponies at a slow, steady, safe speed. Some kids want to go faster but that is not something we can accommodate at a party. So, please let the children know that it is important to not kick the ponys or kiss or cluck them to go.
Our ponies are really use to kids and all the noises that come with being kids, but it is important to understand that all the ponys need to be treated with the utmost love and gentleness.
Most important ****No children must ever walk behind the ponies**** Although our ponies are really safe and don't kick out, sometimes there could be a fly bothering the pony or the pony may not know that a small child is behind them and then accidently kick them.

Petting Zoo Guidelines:

We have a few requirements for our petting zoo:

We need about a 12' x 12' area to set up our fencing.
We would prefer to set up on grass or dirt for the comfort of the animals, but we can accomodate driveways, sidewalks, or concrete/pavement. Please let us know if that is the case so that we can bring hay to put down (we will clean up the hay). Sharp rocks is not okay for the animals or the kids.
Please let us know if we need to bring shade for the animals or if we can set up under a tree during the warmer months.
If animals are going on chemically treated grass, please do not treat the grass within two weeks of us setting up for the safety of the animals and the children.
We need to have access and be close to a water hose/faucet. Please show us at arrival where the water is, especially during the hotter months. If there is no water available, please let us know prior to our arrival so that we can come prepared with water for our animals.
Although we bring clean and healthy animals to our zoo, it is important that the children use our wash stations that we provide after visiting the petting zoo.

Petting Zoo Rules to Follow:

Our animals are like our children to us and we are very concerned about how they are handled. It is important that children treat the animals properly. We will provide an experienced handler in the animal area to assist children with the animals. We do not allow more than two children at a time in the petting zoo area. In order to keep our animals well behaved, we do not allow the children to feed them as this can encourage some bad manners on behalf of the the animals. If there are any children who can not follow handling rules, they will be asked to leave the petting area. We find that 99.9% of kids are great with animals! Our number one rule is to approach all our animals from a place of love and respect.
