Description
Thats right! A fully customized horse model of your very own! The ONLY thing you pay is shipping. You pay it directly to the postman who delivers your package. Not me! No paypal, credit cards, or online scams!Check out my blog to see the journey I'm taking to help stop a Two year old Shetland Quarter pony from becoming a Pasture bound Brood mare.
This pony was one I took under lease when she was just a year old. I've worked with her a lot, teaching her ground manners and I hope to one day teach her how to drive. This pony saved my life, at the time I was suffering under a crushing depression that wasn't helped by my troublesome family life. Working with her kept me sane and has allowed me to break my depression without the use of medications that numbed me.
Now, because of family troubles I'm being forced to move over a thousand miles away to Tucson. I'll be forced to give up her lease and her owner will breed her to offset upkeep costs. If I can move her I will also be able to get her professional training that will further her education.
I dearly wish to keep my pony with me, but the cost to ship and buy her will be about 1,000$. This is more money then I can make on my own in the short period of time I have. So to raise awareness of this situation and hopefully get some support, I've started a Blogspot blog about her, which will also contain a lot of free art.
The only thing you pay is shipping when the package arrives . NO payment will go to me. enough entries I will include shipping FREE.
Rules of the raffle
1: Up to three entries per day. You can enter multiple times a day.
2. Just comment on my blog post about the raffle. Tell me what you think about the blog!
3. You do not need to pay me ANY money directly. If shipping isn't covered by my you will pay the post office/mail man, not me.
4. Spread the word, if you want.

Does she like a specific kind of treats? i'll send you some if youd like.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
She loves peppermint treats, I've found. Anything else she just spits out! Haha, it's the oddest thing. Apples, carrots, bananas, real mints even. She just spits out. Sweet grain and peppermint treats are all she'll touch. You don't have to send treats, but I'm sure she'd love them! ^^

My horse loves pepermint to! Im gonna go to a horse expo this weekend, i'll pick some up for both our horses C:
Im not sure when I can send it though.

Oh awesome! Ive always wanted to go to a horse expo, but we don't have any nearby. At least not anytime soon. The closest I get is watching the horses at my college. Though, they did have one show with TWHs. They were gorgeous.

This is kinda like a convention for horse stores in the area, and people come and buy. I do a lot of showing around here durring the year, all up until winter, so I go and stock up because everythings usualy on sale.
I ment to ask you, your pony looks sort of small. do you ride her? or is she a driving pony?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sounds amazing.
And right now she's only a year and a half years old, turning two this summer. She'll mature around 13 hands, and I hope to make her a driving pony but she'll be broke to ride, too. I personally can't ride horses (I took some of those 'discount' horse lessons when I was a kid. Got thrown on a gravel road and hurt my hip as well as the fear issues XD ) but my friend does ride and show.

Showing is actualy very easy! If you need some tips, I can make some videos for you on youtube to help you out. I have a video thing going beginners.
13 hands is a good hight! My horse is around 14.2, just a littler over a hand taller than yours will be.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sure! 
Yeah, I think she might get to 13.2 hands if she's fed good food. She shot up an entire hand over the summer. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well, english is pretty basic, That could work. About how tall are you?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm 5'4''. But I can't ride english, at all. XD I can barely ride western. D8 *Terrified of moving on the horse*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD how are you going to get anywhere on a cart if your afraid of moving the horsie?
Dont be scared. Your pony will take good care of you C: the hardest part of english is posting a trot, but once you get it mastered then it's the easiest thing is the world.
Whatever you decide, I'm sure you two will be great at it.

Oh, it's not the horse I fear. XD It's being on it. I have a fear of not being grounded. Meaning I like having my feet on something solid. If the horse is still I'm fine, but I'm not sure anything higher anymore. I used to be able to ride anything on a Western saddle. I could even turn and such. But I had a bad fall and they wouldn't let me get back on the horse, so it kinda stuck in my head. Then I took a college course to teach me more but the professor forced me to lope bareback before I even got trotting in a saddle down. So I got bucked and hurt my hip. XD It was bad enough that I couldn't move my arms while in a trot. I can only do circles.

Alrightly, I got ya. I also hurt my hip falling off of my horse. It sounds like you disnt have a very good trainer. Im not sure if its easyer to cart train a horse than it is to get them to train them to ride,are you going to train her yourself?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nuu, nu. I can't train. XD I've gotten ground manners and desensitization down, but anything more is less then perfect. I have two trainers willing to work with her for me. They're also my friends. XD They've worked at professional places training show horses, though. So it's not just some backyard training exposition.

Well thats great! C:
you'll be an awesome pony for you! Im excited to see where you two end up.

Hopefully we end up making millions in the 'cutest pony' contest I'll invent. XD
Orr maybe we'll just cart around Tucson and be awesome. ;D I'm certainly going to keep her blog updated, though.

I was wondering how you got money from us clicking the ads anyhow?
Just curious as I was considering doing something similar myself.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So far we've raised about 60$ ^^

When you view the blog you make an impression on the ads you put up. If people like the ads, they click them and earn you a bit of money. You aren't supposed to encourage people to click the ads (I messed up here.) but theres nothing telling me I can't advertise the blog.
Once they take away the multiple clicks by a single person on the ads the amount will probably be much less.

YEs, you can! ^^ If you can't comment on the blog just be sure to send me a note so I know to put you in.
