HI, MY NAME IS LYNN, I OWN TAKOTA'S PONIES. WE DO CHILDRENS PONY RIDES IN THE CENTERAL TEXAS AREA, BUT WE ARE WILLING TO GO TO OTHER AREAS OF THE STATE IF AVAILABLE. LET ME TELL YOU A LITTLE ABOUT WHAT WE DO, OUR PRICING, OPTIONS AND THE HORSES/PONIES. BASICALLY WHAT WE DO IS TO GO TO EVENTS, BOTH PRIVATE AND PUBLIC, TO HAVE FUN WITH KIDS AND LET THEM GET UP CLOSE AND FRIENDLY WITH VARIOUS SIZES OF HORSES and PONIES. WHAT I DO IS TO BRING A MINIMUM OF 2 HORSES OUT TO THE PARTY. WE WILL THEN GET OUT ONE PONY, RIDE HIM FOR AWHILE, PUT HIM UP AND GET A SECOND PONY OUT AND RIDE HIM FOR THE REMAINING TIME. WHEN I SAY I BRING OUT A MINIMUM OF TWO HORSES, IT MEANS I COULD BRING OUT EXTRAS IF THEY ARE AVAILABLE. SOMETIMES I BRING OUT ONE OR TWO EXTRA. (JUST DEPENDS IF I CAN CATCH THEM) I DO RUN 2 TRUCKS/TRAILERS, THE 1ST ONE I DRIVE AND USUALLY HAS 2 OR MORE PONIES. THE 2ND TRUCK IS RUN BY AN ASSISTANT THIS TRUCK ONLY CARRIES 2 PONIES. SO BOOK EARLY TO GET ON THE 1ST TRUCK'S ROUTE! THE BASE RATE IS BASED ON "A 25 MILE DRIVING RADIUS" AREA FROM MY HOME BASE. FOR ME AND THE HORSES TO COME OUT THE BASE RATE IS $150/HOUR. AFTER THE 1ST 25 MILES, WE WILL THEN CHARGE $1 PER MILE. WE START THE MILAGE FROM MY HOME....I WILL MAPQUEST MY ADDRESS AND YOUR ADDRESS IF THE MILEAGE IS ESTIMATED CLOSE. AN ADDITONAL FEE COULD APPLY FOR EVENTS OVER 1 HOUR DRIVE TIME. THIS FEE IS BECAUSE I USE 2 BOOKING SLOTS TO ACCOMMODATE ONE EVENT. UNICORNS, AMERICAN INDIAN THEMES AVAIL.
