Yes I did and I am happy! My new friend has not 2 legs but 4 legs! My new friend is a pony named Skittles! Skittles is a boy and is a chestnut pinto! He lives out at the stable I had boarded my horse! I was feeding out there today and that is how we became friends! He is my bubby now!

Yes ponies and horses are expensive! My horse,who was put down,almost 2 years ago was expensive! I am still paying off his vet bill! When that is paid off and some other bills,I will be able to afford a horse again!

Having animal friends can really be a good thing. It helps in a lot of ways to know there is something that we can look over that in their own ways will show us love and affection in ways nothing else out there can. Enjoy your New found friend, and maybe someday he will let you ride him.

Excuse me but Skittles is only about 11.2 hands high which is only 46 inches tall! Also I am MORBIDLY OBESE! If I try to ride this pony I'll break his back! I will not do that! Boy are you a moron!

I live in a city,too. Luckily the stable were I help out is outside the city. It is near a state park where people can go trail riding. I used to do that when I had my horse. Until I get a new horse,Skittles will fill in!

Awww!! Ponies are so cute but they can also be little buttheads sometimes. At the barn where I board my horse there's a little mini and his name is Peanut. He likes to escape sometimes and he runs all over the property. It seems like he's running his heart out but he's really only running as fast as we jog. He's so adorable and my horse loves him.

Sounds like the mimi donkey at the stable! The donkey is in love with a pony mare named Brandy! He will follow her anywhere! The donkey hates being caught and will try to run a person over when trying to avoid to being caught! he is a stinker!

When I was a kid, I always wanted a pony. Unfortunately, I grown on a big city so that was impossible, but I was a kid so for me everything was possible.
Really nice to know about your new friend! And that is a very good name too! :)

I had a pony when I was in high school. I had a welsh/sheltand pony named Blacky. Then I moved up to a horse when I graduated high school. He was to much for me so I sold him and got another horse who I had just short 27 years! Until I am ready for a new horse,skittles will just do fine!

That sounds cute! I have never ridden a horse, but I know that in a lot of areas, almost everyone owns a horse.

Right now I can't afford a new horse! I still am paying off my late horses vet bill! It will take at least a year yet to do that!
