Pony Travel

Pony Travel

By Jesse

My name is Jesse and this is the pony I look after called Ellie

Ellie is 10 hands high and is a grey miniature pony

Ponies are cheap to run because Ellie’s fuel is a grass, water and a couple of carrots.

You don’t need petrol or electricity.

When you ride you must have a helmet on. You should check that your girth is done up tight because your saddle might slip off.

Ponies are good for the environment because they don’t pollute the air.

If you don’t clean up your manure you can get a fine. We take a bucket to clean up our mess.

You have to look left and right, give way and stop for traffic when riding on the roads.

After a long ride make sure your pony is sparkling clean.
