    My worst fear : Dad, can I have a pony?

    Yea, my worst fear. My daughter asking me this question:

    Dad, can I have a pony?

    I hate horses! They are too expensive and eat too much, and they live for 50 years.

      And they take alot of care and time. Vet visits are expensive.
      If you have money to hire someone to care for you horse, fine.
      But a horse is not a good 'pet' for any small child unless the family already has horses and it is part of their pre-existing life style.

              I would tell my kid to build a barn first, then I'd think about getting him/her a pony.

                  Do what we did
                  get your daughter SOMEONE ELSE's PONY!!

                  we have stables next door there is about 6 horses there, because we live right near 2 race tracks (harness and field)

                  One of theracehorses next door tore a muscle and so we allowed them to use our huge backyard to place the horse while it recoevered.

                  Our daughter got to see the horse everyday
                  they had to feed and MOST IMPORTANTLY - they had to clean the shit up!

                  So it was like having a horse for free.

                  the only took it away 2 days ago.
                  I hope another horse gets injured

                                          First, let me offer my best wishes to you, whee. If she's anything like I was as a child, she won't give up until she has one. Good luck handling what may well become a lifelong obsession for your kid. Somehow my parents managed to do it gracefully.

                                          I was a horse show professional before I was an adult biz person, and let me tell you - the horse show biz is even more fraught with shady deals, drugs, cheating, skimming, shaving, underage sex, you name it - than I have found in the adult biz. Aside from that though, through having my own horses from childhood, working for various farms, and in short learning about the industry inside and out, I learned a lot about responsibility, hard work, business, and money. Perhaps she will be satisfied with a pet pony in the backyard, but more likely than not she will eventually be drawn to the lure of the show circuit. Good luck! And ICQ me if you ever need some advice or support

                                              Yep. Pay for someone to look after it etc. and give her riding lessons once a week or something.

If she's anything like I was as a child, she won't give up until she has one. Good luck handling what may well become a lifelong obsession for your kid. Somehow my parents managed to do it gracefully.

                                                                                                  I was a horse show professional before I was an adult biz person, and let me tell you - the horse show biz is even more fraught with shady deals, drugs, cheating, skimming, shaving, underage sex, you name it - than I have found in the adult biz. Aside from that though, through having my own horses from childhood, working for various farms, and in short learning about the industry inside and out, I learned a lot about responsibility, hard work, business, and money. Perhaps she will be satisfied with a pet pony in the backyard, but more likely than not she will eventually be drawn to the lure of the show circuit. Good luck! And ICQ me if you ever need some advice or support

I told him he could not believe the work involved with keeping one. I found a local stable willing to let him learn what was involved. He volunteered there under supervision for several days. Mucked out stalls, brushed, etc. It wasn't long before he decided that a horse was best if he could visit and ride from time to time and not have to take care of. Ended the begging completely.

They are not a lot of work but you still have to mess with them at least an hour a day. Just for fun this is what you can expect to spend.

Assuming you have a place of your own and don't have to board the pony, here is what I pay per month per horse to keep my horses living like kings:

                                                                                                          Grain - $50+/month
                                                                                                          Hay - $75-100/month
                                                                                                          Bedding - $60/month
                                                                                                          Farrier (trim/shoes) - $100 every 4-6 weeks
                                                                                                          Worming - $15 every 8 weeks
                                                                                                          Vaccinations - $200/year

                                                                                                          If you are boarding, depending on the part of the country, expect to pay between $350 and $2000 per month. The last show barn I worked at charged $1500/month, just for board.

                                                                                                          That's very conservative and doesn't take into account any lessons/training, which your daughter would need, nor any vet bills which are pretty much unavoidable no matter how careful you are. And good luck finding a sound, kid-safe horse for $300-$800, it will probably be closer to a few thousand.

                                                                                                          Like the other people on here, I recommend taking her to a local barn where she can try working in exchange for some lessons. That way you see if she's serious without having to spend big $. I I ended up with a horse and a full time job at 12 (left school at 16 to ride on the show circuit) but most kids unless they're really serious will quit after a day or 2 of cleaning stalls.

Not necessarily the judges, but the trainers, riders, grooms, etc etc. the whole insulated, perversely wealthy crew, in my experience! And don't get me started on the killing horses for insurance payouts scandal...

I told him he could not believe the work involved with keeping one. I found a local stable willing to let him learn what was involved. He volunteered there under supervision for several days. Mucked out stalls, brushed, etc. It wasn't long before he decided that a horse was best if he could visit and ride from time to time and not have to take care of. Ended the begging completely.
                                                                                                                                  exactly what I would do - kids have no idea of money or responsiblity only dreams. by showing them what it takes to own a horse they learn for the future that sometimes just wanting is better than having.

                                                                                                                                      We had a bad thunder storm, and she went through our electrical fence and then through the neighbors barb fence. She sustained 41 lacerations on her neck and sides, as well as peeling the skin and muscle off of one front and one rear leg. She is able to walk without limping, and will recover, but she needs 3 visits from the vet a week, at 490$ each. That does not include the shots and pain meds, and the wound dressing that I was doing. Plus the hours of walking to build her legs back up.

                                                                                                                                      The really sad thing is that she was a winning throughbred.
                                                                                                                                      Her name is Bob's Hail Mary.

                                                                                                                                      The people that took her will have her fixed in about 5 months, and will be breeding her. We will visit from time to time, and are very upset from loosing her, but we will go on. But a child would be devistated to see the damage that she suffered..

                                                                                                                                      I know that it is a big difference between a pony and a horse that it 17.5 hands tall and 2k lbs, but no matter what, they are more work than you can imagine.

                                                                                                                                                  Dad, can I have a pony?

                                                                                                                                                  I hate horses! They are too expensive and eat too much, and they live for 50 years.


                                                                                                                                                  for the record...horses don't live 50 years, maybe into their 30s max, but ive never ever heard of a horse hitting 35+. my horse only lived to be 33 before he died of cancer.

                                                                                                                                                  horses are great if you want your kids to learn responsibility, but they definitely have to be ready for it, those shovels of horseshit are heavy!

                                                                                                                                                  vet bills suck, i got lucky, both my parents are vets.

If she's anything like I was as a child, she won't give up until she has one. Good luck handling what may well become a lifelong obsession for your kid. Somehow my parents managed to do it gracefully.

                                                                                                                                                      I was a horse show professional before I was an adult biz person, and let me tell you - the horse show biz is even more fraught with shady deals, drugs, cheating, skimming, shaving, underage sex, you name it - than I have found in the adult biz. Aside from that though, through having my own horses from childhood, working for various farms, and in short learning about the industry inside and out, I learned a lot about responsibility, hard work, business, and money. Perhaps she will be satisfied with a pet pony in the backyard, but more likely than not she will eventually be drawn to the lure of the show circuit. Good luck! And ICQ me if you ever need some advice or support

And from the price and maintenance of getting a horse it seems only few "blessed" people can afford to have one.
