I want to give the local kids rides. And I need something to do. I like animals.

It's a nice idea, but please reconsider. You would be doing this pony a great diservice by buying him and not knowing a thing about horse and pony care. Horses and ponies are not like cats and dogs. They need around the clock meticulous maintence with feed, feet, teeth and vet care. They can colic at the drop of a hat, and injure themselves on things that you didn't even know they could injure themselves on. They need a constant feed schedule, with proper hay and grain. You won't be able to put him out in a grass paddock and expect him to fend for himself.

If you're really interested in getting a pony, please talk to a local stable and get some experience first. It's the only way to do it. You don't own them, they own you. Caring for a horse is an around the clock thing.

You want a pony to give the local kids rides...
You buy flowers for young girls on the local basketball team...

Haven't your neighbors told their children to stay away from you yet?

Gads.

I wonder if the parents of the local kids would think about your plan.

This sounds creepy to me.

Don’t buy the the pony,,,,$750 ,,,,too much ,people are trying to give horses away ,,,when you buy a horse its the cheapest thing you’ll ever do ,,, the farrier ,feed cost ,stable or pasture cost every month , tack and vet bills ,,, how many head you want ,,, I’ve got over 40 head I’d love to get off the feed bill.
