***This Is Not An Advertisement, Just wanting To Get Some Feedback***

Hi, I was just curious if anyone in the North East Texas area, would want to do an on site lease, for a lead line pony. She is currently only 4 months old (Max, we got her as a rescue, and was told she was 5 months old, this was back in February, we thought nothing of it, because she was suppose to be a horse, and she looked like my 5 month old registered paint, size wise. Anyways long story short, she was only 4 weeks old, and was taken away from mom way to early. Lately, we have been battling bloat, and colic, but is on her way to recovery.) The vet, confirmed her age, and height, confirming I would be to tall for her. She will be a max of 13 hands, which is way to small for me. We were going to sell her, but I have just became to attached, and helping her through her colic, and bloat, has brought me even closer to her. So we are keeping her, but want her to be more than a halter, showmanship, and pasture pet.
She is a FIGHTER. The vet said she should of died long before now, with not getting the nutrient she needed from her mother, and then bloating and colicing, then last night, we had been checking on her, and while I was asleep, my mother had went to check on her and she was ice cold, so my mom gave her the pain meds, and said she would rather her go peacefully, then in pain. Then later, she was up again but had taken herself into the brush, and my dad was freaking out and my mom said to leave her be, because flicka (my horse) didn't want me to find her, and was trying to pass. Then when my mom woke up at 6:00 am, she was right back up to the barn, and my mom and vet said it's a miracle she survived.
She is not registered, but is an amazing horse/pony. I will also be training her for cart, and her show name is going to be something along the lines of "I'm a miracle," or something with the word miracle in it, because she truly is.
So basically what im asking, is if anyone would be interested in an onsite lease, for a lead line pony. (She will be cart trained, and able to be ridden by young children.) She has literally the MOST AMAZING demeanor that I have ever seen in a foal. She trailers, bathes, stands for hooves, vet, and ties great. I will not sell her though, she means way to much to me, to sell her. She will not be started under saddle until around January-May of 2017, but I am just wondering if anyone would be interested.

***Again, this is not an advertisement, just looking for feedback. Thanks!***

I'm sorry you have had such a rough time with her. Honestly, you aren't going to have any luck really advertising her this soon. Start when she is 2 or 3. There is just so much that can happen in two years. In the mean time, enjoy her. And share pictures of her if you would like.

She is a cute little girl! Please be careful leaving nylon halters on when turned out. A lot of people do that plus the lead like I see, to start halter breaking them. But I have seen it go very bad. Totally up to you, but leather halters are much safer to turnout in, just a cheap single non padded one, because it will break if she gets caught up, or even a break away halter. She has a sweet little face. I look forward to seeing more of her as she grows up!!
