We go to Thunderbird as often as possible (~6-8 weeks/year) from WA and all we do is the E29B. We do not have a carne or bond. I believe even commercial you don’t need a bond, just a carne which is roughly $500/year.
Not sure how it works for purchasing, sorry OP.
Well, you’re about six weeks late, it was definitely all figured out already. But thank you! 
Ha! My bad - that’s what I get for skimming and skipping around. SUPER cute! And maybe someone can use my E29B for future reference and not pay the (stupid) bond 
No worries at all, this has been a very informative thread in regards to shipping from Canada.
Since a few of you wanted updates, here’s today… We had a major weather event yesterday, wind and rain, in fact it shredded a fabric carport that my Dad uses to store lumber (I was keeping hay in it but thankfully not any longer). So what do you do when you have large giant tarps? Well…
Also she is feeling sassy and harassing the senior, but he doesn’t care

Oh, she’s going to be fun to train!
My best at home hack was my most easily trained horse and he was curious about everything. He was that way from a weanling and never changed. He turned out to be a very quick learner undersaddle.
I just had to make sure that his curiosity didn’t get him into trouble.
@TheJenners Is that a dappled goat/ dog / sheep in the background of the last video at about the 16 second mark??
Your young horse looks to be very happy in her new home.
Hmm not dappled but there is a white goat and a black goat in the smaller paddock of my neighbor’s!
Yes she is turning into a pest. She is now out with the donkeys, or they are out with her, so she has company and Bay is back to daytime property wandering. She won them over pretty much immediately.
I guess it was the fence wire making the black goat look spotted. My eyes aren’t what they used to be 
I do see the black and white goats now that you pointed them out.
No worries at all! My eyes aren’t either, I only know because I get to see them up close 
I just had an eye appt and was told that I was pretty nicely undercorrected, so yay for new contacts.
Might as well attach a new video, you might see the goats in it as well. It’s mostly Volley losing her mind over juvenile humans running around, which she has (she claims) never experienced before. Two girls, 11 and 12, were here dropping off one of the girls’ little mare for some R&R in a snuggly stall with heated water because she was toeing the colic-line at home, and they asked if they could go “skate” on the frozen water in one of the paddocks and then took off running when I said yes. Little filly was majorly like “wtf mom?” The cons of a private barn, it’s too quiet, and it’s why Libbi struggled at the trainer’s and is not even sat on yet after 1.5 months. Ooof.
No sound in the video to hear them running past (a Mom was talking in the background and I figured she didn’t want her convo to be blasted on the Interwebz), but you can tell exactly when each runs by Volley is 8.5 months, probably at least 14h but I haven’t sticked her in a few weeks, and as the kids say, has a dumptruck booty.

“Losing her mind”
!
Hey she even cantered some! I just didn’t get it on video. But yes it was said tongue-in-cheek 
Well now, you’ll just have to don a sparkly tutu and fairy wings then skip around the paddock with mylar balloons while singing Disney songs.
Hope the visiting pony perks up.

If that is how she “loses her mind” you definitely have a winner there!
She is really big boned/ sturdy built. I’ve never seen her breed up close in person.
Quick update (really quick)!
She continues to grow 
She is 10 months and 14.1. She string tested to 17.2 but please god no. Additionally, Irish brain saves the day, she popped an abscess last week and my awesome vet stopped by real quick on her way to do scent work at The Home Depot with her baby beagle in training to be a HRD doggo and declared it worthy of treatment and stall confinement due to how muddy it is. She also said, “let’s go wash it off!” in a really cheerful voice while I groaned internally “she is smoking crack, I got this baby in Sept and she thinks I’ve tried hosing her? ”
Anyway, she was surprisingly okay with the hosing and then since I have been beating the abscess-odds for years and therefore was completely unprepared for dealing with one, stuck her foot in a regular water bucket for a soak. She only pulled her foot out once at the very beginning and then just stood there giving me side eye. Bestest vet also pictured.
After this a friend loaned me a size 4 boot, and this was her reaction. No, she isn’t sedated, she’s plotting. I mean thinking
Plotting complete, she figured out she could just step up and out of it within a few days so my same awesome vet loaned me a size 2 boot that is almost too small and now she is plotting her ultimate escape. As in, she can untie herself Not a fluke, this is a repeat performance with intent.
Anyway, she’s still awesome 
I’m hoping she’ll sprout some neck soon tho
What a good baby! She is gorgeous too. A brain and looks…drool.
She’s going to be a very good looking powerhouse when she matures. You’ve got a nice one there. 
Quick update!
She is a month away from her one year birthday. I got my IDSH mare back from the trainer yesterday and tossed her out with the “baby.” I’m NOT measuring the baby until her birthday. I haven’t measured my mare, who will be four in July, recently but I think she’s ~15.1-15.3, she’s tall but has zero withers. She isn’t petite either. She has big giant feet (sz 2 if shod) and big legs and is just a big yummy treat and I loff her.
This is the two of them out together. Err? Crap
Your baby is not going to be small!
How did your mare do at training?
Those white legs are way white. Wow.
