Parking-To unload our animals and setup we need to park as close as possible to the location. Our truck and trailer are 50 feet long. A parking space needs to be provided for us as close as possible. Please arrange for that prior to your party. If parking is not close and it takes us more time to unload, you will be billed an extra $25 for each 15 minutes we need to use.

Weight Limits-We have horses that allow for all weights, sizes or horse/cart. Just let us know what you need. We have a miniature horse that children may ride. The weight limit may not exceed 65 lbs. We also have Shetland Ponies to ride, depending on the size of the pony; weight limit may not exceed85 lbs. Please make sure you order the right size of horse, we will turn children away if they are too large to ride.

At a birthday party we do not hitch a pony to a carousel; our handler always walks next to the pony. This provides added security for the child and also means that we are interacting with the child during their ride, this provides an educational advantage as the children are in direct contact with the handler and are free to ask any questions regarding the pony's care and training. Even though we are there interacting with the child, the very young should always have a parent walk with them

Care is taken at all times to ensure the safety of both the children and the animals. Utah Pony Party handlers are careful to instruct children on how to behave nearand on the ponies and petting zoo animals. Here is a general guideline to help you instruct your guests.

Pony Safety Rules:

Approach a pony near its shoulder so it can see you

Never approach a pony from directly behind. That is a blind spot;.

Never stand directly behind a pony.

Don’t run or yell, You could spook the pony.

Never put your hand in or near the pony’s mouth

Party Etiquette

For the safety of all involved, please:

·Locate noisy and active games in an area away from the ponies.

·Keep children in a line and not running wildly around the ponies before their turn.

·Consider reserving a goat and bunny from us to help keep the children occupied.

·Restrain all dogs to a secure area in your home, one which cannot be accessed by a child. Strange dogs can make the animals nervous.

·Keep balls and sticks away from the pony ride area.

·Do not stand or run behind ponies as this can startle them

·Do not pull their pony tails!

·Only one child on a pony at a time.

·Speak quietly and move slowly as sudden movements and loud sounds may startle ponies.

·Keep ride on toys far away from the pony andfarm area.

·Keep motorized and battery operated toys away from the pony andfarm area.
