Out and about early a couple of weeks ago to start the day with the Wild Horse Outreach & Advocacy Ambassador herd. They’re still fuzzy but started shedding a while ago, giving me hope that spring will eventually arrive after a long, cold winter.
The plan for this year is to travel with the herd (hopefully including Lacy) to different events, giving more people an opportunity to meet the Mustangs in person, to ask questions, to see that wild horses come in many colors, shapes, sizes and personalities, and to learn about all things Mustang.
With so many once wild horses looking for homes, we need to grow the Mustang community. Responsibly and sustainably… As many of you know, bringing home a wildie, whether unhandled, gentled or already saddle trained, is a huge commitment and an expense that goes far beyond the initial adoption fee or purchase price.
Our goal is to help as many Mustangs as possible find good, long-term homes where they receive the care and in most cases continued training they need to be healthy, happy and safe in our world. What better way to accomplish that than through giving prospective adopters the opportunity to meet and interact with these horses, to learn about them, as well as available options and resources before making a hopefully well-informed decision to bring a Mustang into their lives?
