Horse For Sale Free to 4-H home, Two mini's available

[DianaM]

I have two mini's that I am ready to rehome to a 4-H home, either in Pierce or Kitsap County, Washington State. I have had them almost 5 years and I love them to pieces, but I don't think they are getting the attention they deserve. They both would be great little 4-H projects. They look good, are well-mannered and the gelding loves to jump. High!
My ideal would be to have 4-H kids come here (ex- 4-H'r here) or they go to a local family that will show at the local fairs.
We have a wonderful mini horse barn at Kitsap County fairgrounds and a good number of mini's show at the fair, but not in 4-H.

These two are not registered, the mare gives rides on lead line. Neither seem to have had a bit in their mouth, but do well on the ground. Current on everything, hairy and cute!

I have since applied to be a volunteer with the 4-H and may just start a meeting here. That may help get them into 4_H.

What is your location? I might know of someone in the South East Texas area

HershyMint that posts on here is looking for a mini I think. IDK where she lives though.

Hi Cayuse, I believe she is in WA, which is too far for me. Thank you for thinking of me. I have a lead one a mini which seems perfect but someone was already coming and interested in her. They should let me know tomorrow if she is off limits.

I signed up to volunteer and when I hear back from the local county extension service, I am going to inquire about starting a 4-H Club! I would love to give a child an opportunity to be involved with 4-H.
4-H has grown a lot since I was kid and now even offer the STEM education. It's a pretty neat organization (that makes for affordable horse showing!) and I am afraid it is going away. There are no groups in South Kitsap County, Washington State, where I live.

We might be interested, if they are still available! We are down in Clackamas County though. How old and tall are they? Any laminitis or founder history?

We are interested also in Cowlitz county Washington.

I have not found any takers for the mini's yet, but I am getting closer.

I have passed 4-H background check, filled out the application and now I am waiting for training. There is a horse only 4-H club in my area that I will be assisting with and refreshing my knowledge of 4-H and learning how things have changed since I was a member.

I went to a clinic the club had yesterday and it was so great to watch the kids with their horses. I am really going to enjoy this and going to the fair with the club. Hopefully, there are horse-less kids near me that want to show them. Thanks for all the interest!

Today I receive my official 4-H training. I attended a club (zoom) meeting last week. It was fun to say the 4-H pledge again.
Now I am committed to helping the club leader, and I still have the mini's!

It's funny how this turned out. I was looking for another volunteer opportunity (considering Meals on Wheels) and this is a good one. Maybe I can do both.
