Is she not the cutest, most expressive little lady? Her paperwork says buckskin, and Tay Martin swears she’s dunskin, as she has a dorsal stripe trying to appear beneath her fading winter fuzz. In either case, she’s beautiful. Dragonfly 4yo, facility born to a Stewart Creek WY Mustang mare. She currently measures 14.1hh and string …

Life with Rock
… is llama ears, an unruly mane, fogged up glasses and awkward kisses. The biggest of boys (16+hh and counting) is living his best life with the Wild Horse Outreach & Advocacy Ambassador Mustang herd, enjoys meeting people and receives age appropriate training. I’m of the opinion that a 4yo is still developing and maturing, …

Adoptable Mustangs: Lightning Bug
When I got this guy home, I said to Tay Martin “Gosh, he sure looks a lot like River!” I pulled this big sorrel boy with soft eyes out of a pen full of young Twin Peaks Mustang geldings, thinking he was one of them. It wasn’t until the evening after the adoption event that …

Moonrise with Spur
Beautiful moments last night with one the quirkiest Mustangs we’ve had yet. Last week I took Spur into town for the first time. We rode all around our tiny mountain town and into the school yard. He met the staff and a lot of the students, and was perfectly content sleeping and letting kids love …

Who Should Win? Everyone.
The horse. The trainer. The future owner. Others who may come in contact with the horse: Friends, visitors, haulers, farriers, vets, kids, horsey as well as non-horsing loved ones. Ideally we help the horse become confident, comfortable and competent in all areas of life with humans. That makes for a happy, well-adjusted, trusting and respectful …

Good Medicine
This is why people say that horses are “good medicine” or simply good for the soul. So many smiles that evening. It was also the occasion for me to admit that big dopey geldings with a PhD in energy conservation make great friends. The Wild Horse Outreach & Advocacy Ambassador Mustang herd had friends over …
