2 weeks off and picked up right where we left off
Big mountain ride, 8 miles, and didn’t skip a beat with snow banks, steep hillsides, and rocky terrain. Couldn’t be more happy she’s truly a good one and I can’t wait to see a c**t out of her 🤩
New kid on the block. Baby pics & sire
Bar MT horses soaking some sun before the temps drop again. -40’s before windchill.
Free choice for hay and thawed water is all horses need to get by in this frigid weather 🥶
“My horse is broke”
Yeah… but How broke? 🥴
Here on the Hi-Line, layers save us, and unfortunately that means some crawling around to get on and off. So our horses are all broke and quiet to get on and off, butt swipes and all.
They’re broke to just saddle cinch up and go, no need for lunging them around to get some jitters out, they may walk off a bit tight but there is no buck or hop whatsoever.
They’re broke to stand tied for long periods with or without a buddy with the carting vehicles back and forth, they’ll tie loose to a fence post or water tank and be in the same place we left them, calm and content
And they’re broke to do their job. Rain shine or negative with snow, they’re willing to do their job and help is get the job done regardless of what Mother Nature throws at us.
We are so grateful and thankful for good stock and provide only the best to the public when they’re ready.
[Pictured is Rico and Kirk after checking the cows in 40mph winds, snow, and freezing temps. They got cooled off properly and have access to fresh hay and water]
RIDE 10!!!
Outside new property 40 min away and not a hint of goofiness at any point. No buddy sour nothing. Can’t say enough good on this mare I’m so proud of her!!!
It’s Lope O’Clock!!!
Ride 9!
We’re a big fan of waiting until the c**t is ready to step into a lope, rather than rushing it. Millie worked on walk trot and halt softly first.
And ended with a beautiful lope session! She just stepped into it with absolutely no stress or bolting.
Love love love this mare!!!
Ride 8! Millie retained really since last being rode on Christmas Day.
We’re swinging a rope! Standing quiet and calm being saddled, every day is up with her!

Rico, Kirk, and Millie got their dentals today! Such good patients and good information all around.
Love the mobile vet I have a good relationship with she’s very informative and knowledgeable and takes great care in her work.
Info on each pic 🙂
Second saddling, no buck, no quirks, smart c**t. Just helping to keep forward momentum and keep his feet moving rather than locking up 👏🏻
Brushing, picking up feet, tacking up, walk trot in small pen/on the circle in snaffle bit
Kirk had 2 weeks off and came back better than ever 👏🏻
WOO HOO!!! Papers are approved 🤩🤩
Millie ride 7 👏🏻 she did really well considering the c**ts were running around like crazy
FIRST SADDLING 👏🏻
Took it all like a champ!!! He had some buck but quickly came back and calmed right down. Such a smart c**t and willing personality.
I never mind when c**ts buck first saddling, it’s new. Prep them all you want but it’s a natural reaction to express their discomfort to something new. Can only go up from here!!!
“Boone” got his first work session and my favorite words for good c**ts is this - willing and lots of try.
He came to me just halter broke and I threw him in the ringer. He got all 4 feet trimmed (he’s been trimmed prior so that wasn’t new!)
He learned lunging both directions, “tarp”/blanket walking over and walked over first time with ease, and was flagged out.
Definitely had some baby tendencies but every second he was Thinking and processing what I was asking and gave positive results.
Hes going to be a good one… a BIG one he must stand 14.3 already and had good bone to him!
Day 1, Welcome home!!! 🤩
Crazy Christmas news but Millie has been chosen to have a foal with Dun It With A Chic N for 2024 🤩 couldn’t be more excited!!! Definitely a new realm that we stepped into but pretty excited to see her future as well as this new baby we’ll be welcoming 🎄
RIDE 5 ‼️
Merry Christmas and what a wonderful Christmas gift to have such a wonderful willing mare to be so calm and nonchalant for her first ride outside I could not be more proud!!!
Merry Christmas from the Bar MT crew! 🎄
RIDE 4 ‼️
Rain shine or snow, we get it done!
Saddle, cinch, and go this mare continues to amaze me with her potential and willingness. But cats coming out of nowhere are absolutely terrifying, which is fair. And no commitment to freaking out just a spook, such a good mare.
RIDE 3 ‼️
Trotting a soft full circle is never my goal or expectation with any c**t but Millie just did it no issues. She’s riding soft in a halter and a snaffle.
RIDE 2 ‼️
Ever been attacked by swallows? Yeah me neither until today and thank goodness the air strike didn’t actually hit me or Millie because I was scared enough hearing how close the little s**t came to me 😅
Anywho, Millie’s second ride - solo at that - was a success and we’re just working on no pressure forward momentum. She understand yielding, almost too well, and wants to back up so without making a big deal in just starting to ask with a subtle click to ask for forward.
Bonding and exposure
How CUTE is Rico in his pretty new halter by 100% Mohair Horse Tack, LLC 👏🏻 stunning and flawless work as always!
RIDE 1 in the books 👏🏻 Mille did super well!!!
We can’t and won’t take full credit to prep her to her first ride - the prior owners did an awesome job with that, but regardless she passed with flying colors!
And of course, shoutout to an amazing ponying and pickup crew of Taggert and who is just awesome at everything we throw at him 😆
Boys wanna have fun!
You can see the gears turning in Millie’s head on her first hobble experience… gotta love the thinkers that don’t overreact… too much 😆
Not that Rico needs to steal anymore hearts, but we found out today that he will jump anything regardless of height (or lack there of) with squared knees and a positive attitude. Going to have to see about some jump competitions maybe 😆
