4h PROVIDES horse

[Billnew]

Went to 4H on Friday and found a horse for my daughter to practice with, and maybe show if she feels comfortable with it.

13 hands tall 1/4 horse.



I love horse people. I have been invited to ride with several people, and now my daughter can do a 4H horse project.

Even better,they have all the tack we need.
So my daughter can enjoy her love of horses.

GOD IS GREAT He answered her prayers.

That's great! Horse people as a general rule are generous and nice. Happy for your daughter, and I hope she can show this season.

Hehe, not to be picky...but 13 hands isn't a horse - it's a pony. I'm glad you were so fortunate. I absolutely adored my first pony and I'm sure your daughter will too.

 

[Billnew]

Yes,
I stand corrected.
It is actually a pony.

I am learning the language fairly quickly.
But am still new to it all.

yes​

Wow that great news for your daughter. I hope she has lots of fun with here new friend. Whats the pony's name.Is she going to learn how to jump. I also love horse people.

good luck with the pony. I did 4H for 4 or 5 years and i had a blast every year except the first one. Keep reminding her that 4H is for fun and to try new classes and events. I had the most fun entering classes that i didn't have any idea what they were.

Good luck!

Jackson, haven't seen it yet, well up close.
I drive by the property, and have seen the horse from about a quarter mile away.
right now we're not thinking of anything advanced, just staying in the saddle.

It's 4H, so not sure who will teach her. Probably her best friends dad, he has had horses all his life. she shows in 4h. He is our go to person for horse info.

She rode the pony last Saturday.
It was a little dirty from spending the day in the pasture. But it was well mannered.
(10 yr old pony. gelding, I think)

The pony is over weight, and is going on a diet, because an overweight or under weight horse is automatic disqualifier. For the fair.
