Thank you so much for your support and all the fun name suggestions!
Tay Martin and the peanut butter jars worked their magic for our most recent name draw for the Wyoming Mustang geldings we brought home right before the clinic with Steve Mantle.
Nemo is a 3yo tri colored pinto with one blue (aka fish) eye, facility born to a Stewart Creek WY Mustang mare. He is a little goofy and a lot sweet. He’s a stunning, easygoing and friendly little guy who would make a great first Mustang. Nemo currently measures 14hh and string tests to 14.2hh.
River is a 4yo sorrel Antelope Hills gelding with two matching hind socks. He has Gus’s face, kind eyes and built, and if that’s not his half brother, I don’t know what he is. Same age, HMA and gather, so they could certainly have the same sire. He is even calmer than Gus and a tad shorter, measuring 14.3hh and string testing to 15hh mature height.
Nashoba (Nash) is a 4yo grey Antelope Hills Mustang gelding. He is curious, sensitive, athletic and kind. He’s a lovely mover with a great built and estimated to be 15hh currently. We’ll measure him later this week. He’s very Spanish in both his conformation and demeanor. His ideal human is prepared for and excited about that. We’d love to see him have an athletic career in and/or outside of the arena.
Ford is a 3yo bay roan pinto gelding facility born to a Stewart Creek WY Mustang mare. He gets the “most improved award as he was by far the most standoffish of the four. It’s been a joy to see him start to come out of his shell and his eyes soften. He’s very expressive, an effortless mover, soft on the rope and has tons of try. It’ll be fun to see him continue to settle down and learn. We estimate him to be 14.2 or .3hh and will measure him as soon as he’s ready for that.
All four of these boys are available for adoption through Wild Horse Outreach & Advocacy in Guffey, Colorado. Hauling can be arranged.
More info on each of them in future posts. Pm or email us with questions. Thank you again for supporting our fundraiser, for sending fly control care packages for the wild ones and for continuing to share, like and comment to help these horses find homes! We couldn’t do what we do without you.
