Hey

I'm shining the KB logo high in the night sky, hoping for some help...

I need help transporting a miniature horse/pony (cat A, roan gelding), from Masterton to Upper Hutt. Not exactly sure when, but hopefully this Sat or Sun. So I'm not sure what anyone hare can offer/suggest. Either a horse float I can borrow/hire, a vehicle than can transport one (the seller says it fits in a 4wd) that I can hire / borrow / be driven in, or any other way of getting it over.

I'm not worried about how much it costs to get it to the Hutt, I just can't find anyone/anything. I've called 5 freight companies, none will do it, called HireQuip (they have 1 horse float for hire shared between 4 branches in the region, it has been hired on long term contract so it's not available), HirePool don't have one... I can't believe it's this hard to get this done!:pinch: Is anyone able to help, maybe someone going that way, etc...

I guess I'll be buying a saddle and riding it back from Masterton (those that know me, would find this funny).

Cheers,
Dave.

Pm sent too. A furniture trailer may be the go. I suppose supply your own tie downs as for the ferrys?

If it was small enough you could perhaps put a set of Treasures on it and strap it into a booster seat...

I wonder does it have a pink mane and blue stars on it's side? My daughter lost hers a few years ago.... (:Oi: watch it - Her "My little pony")

What about a Post-it tube?
