Lisa Vanderpump Gets Two Miniature Horses From Ken For Her Birthday

July 22, 2015 by tamaratattles 44 Comments

RHOBH Lisa Pump Surprise

 

According to TMZ, Lisa Vanderpump has added two mini horses to her pet menagerie.  Ken apparently had them flown in on a private jet.  Horses on a plane! Do people even do that?  I assume that Arabians got here by boat and are bred here.  Anyway, we will see the whole thing on RHOBH next season.

TMZ says that Lisa is wants the horses to be therapy horses in hospitals. I thought that sounded ridiculous, how can you have a horse in a hospital? But then I thought about it, and they do allow dogs and other pets in  as therapy. So I looked it up and found this site which shows photos of mini-horses in hospitals working with kids. So cute!

Apparently the mini-horses come in the house too! But another thing I don’t get is how TMZ says they will be staying in the yard. Is her yard even fenced? Did they build a stable? I have so many questions.RHOBHlisakenbora

Who is the mini-horse expert here? I don’t know much about horses. I was invited to go horseback ridng by some people who knew my parents in Libya. I had a healthy fear of horses. My mother was against pretty much everything. When the horse owners left, they wanted to give me their Arabian. Looking back, they probably saw how much it would have helped me to have a pet and a hobby. But my Mama cockblocked that right away. It was not expensive to have horses in Libya.  We just weren’t much of a pet family once we started traveling. And going out to care for them would have been a commitment. Even though the horses were kind of passed around amongst the ex-pats when they moved to their next assignment.

Anyway. The other thing I discovered is that there is some sort of surplus of mini-horses. Rather than paying thousands and flying them in via private plant with the seats removed, you can rescue them like dogs and cats. Do not Google “miniature horse rescue’ or you will find yourself with one very soon. They are so cute. Maybe Banjo needs a mini-horse?

TMZ says that Lisa has not named them yet and will let “her friends” (the cast?) help name them. TMZ recommended Brandi as a good name. Oh the shade of it all.

    I love LVP’s birthdays. They are always over-the-top and fabulous. Maybe she can give Jax a new career as a stable boy.

    I think the ponies came from Lisa to Ken for his 70th birthday. Now all they need is Brandi and they’d have a full on zoo. Yay ponies!

      ​Hmm you are right. I misread birthday gifts FOR Ken as birthday gifts FROM Ken. Because I seriously doubt Kne wanted ponies and the TMZ story was about Lisa wanting them to be therapy horses.

      So I stand corrected. Lisa bought herself mini horses for Ken’s Birthday! 🙂

    I work as a Homecare nurse and my boss use to have two mini horses. He would bring them to the nursing homes and the residents loved it. They helped them to open up and to help socialize the residents. He had about an acre of land that was fenced in. The horses would just roam around and inside of the house! They were so friendly and well mannered. And easy to transport too! He had an SUV and one horse was able to fit in there comfortably !

    Michaela Salahi received a beautiful horse named Sparkles for her birthday, too! It had to be returned at day’s end, though, I bet.

    the miniature horses are so cute ! not only do I think that’s a really cute gift, but that’s awesome if she uses them as therapy horses. I look forward to seeing that on rhobh. also i think naming one of the horses brandi is really an insult to the horse, they deserve better : )

    Giggy might get jealous. That’s a sweet idea, using them in hospitals. I haven’t seen any at mine, but we do get a lot of dogs. I wonder if they are going to film her getting them for the show. Hope so!

        “Will she dress them up in outfits that match Giggy’s?” She is Lisa Vanderpump! Of course she will. I just feel sorry for her poor maid who will have to clean up horse poo in the house all day.

    TT you are so right, those horses + the kids and the elderly people are just adorable! I WANT one (lol) although I know I can’t get one. But looking at the smiles they bring just makes me feel warm all over. They make you forget (for a minute) all of the evilness that’s going on in the world. Thanks for sharing.

    Tamara, I had a horse in Tripoli. They were amazing. If she was tacked up Western (as she was when I rode), she’d do barrels for me. The woman who owned her before rode English and then Red was a “jumper”. I hate that you didn’t get one. We might have met at the stables.

      ​I only recall going there one time. It wasn’t particularly pleasant. Not because of the horses, but for what I am discovering in therapy was my mother’s constant pessimism. I have idea where I got that from. 🙂

    Yes horses do fly on planes.. Here in Canada we ship/fly horses from the U.S. and Mexico all the way to Japan for them to slaughter and eat.. Lovely eh? And yes there are tons of mini horse rescues, and thats because they are the pocket puppy of the horse world.. They are so cute and cuddly.. But are lots of work and lots of money in upkeep.. So they are bought on a whim and then tossed! .. Hopefully Lisa and Ken keep them 🙂

    A friend of Lisa’s found the horses at my ranch in Texas, Little America, and arranged for the transport on Monday for Ken’s birthday. They couldn’t have a better home I am sure and hope someday to get to visit them. Meanwhile, we have close to 175 miniatures at littleamericaminis.com in Buda (Austin, Texas)
