Your little one may be begging you for a pony out of the ponies for sale want ads in the paper or online but it is never a good idea to buy any animal without full consideration of the responsibility. We know you dreamed of your own pony as a child but make sure you are making a sound decision and not an emotional one.

The phrase horse agistment comes from English law where, to agist, meant to take cattle to graze, for a remuneration. Back when agistment first came into practice it referred to the proceeds of pasturage in the king’s forests. But for us, horse agistment basically means when a horse owner keeps their horse on land owned by someone else, for a fee. However, the terms, facilities and services of horse agistments vary widely.
