I have not talked about this girl in a while. If anyone remembers Carmella my 2024 mustang magic mare I competed on here’s an update. Ever since I picked her up for the competition I knew she was battling some injuries. After the competition I was advised to let her sit for a year to help her recover. After many vet visits and many x rays we really could not pin down what was wrong. Closest thing we came to was that her feet were very tender and she was over compensating and got sore on all 4 legs. Her tendons were starting to give out. So we kept her shoed to relieve the pain and had to let the tendons heal on their own. It’s been a year since I touched this mare. Have not ridden or done any ground work with her. She’s been looking really nice out in the field and is not moving sore anymore so I asked for another opinion and got the green light to start working her again. So I pulled her out and threw a saddle on her and hoped on. Not the smartest thing to do. I was shocked how much this horse remembered. It was if I never stopped riding her. Still could stop, spin, pick up her leads. It was mind blowing. This horse is so damn talented and that’s a big reason I took a chance on her. We still have a long way to go in rehabbing her and getting her conditioned. Im excited to see what this horse can be now that she’s feeling good. Stay tuned for more updates.

I don’t post my training horses very often but I just have to share this. I had the chance to start a driving team of donkeys. How could I say no. I usually don’t take in these kind of requests for training but curiosity got the best of me and I wanted to see if I could do it or not. Both pulled the cart today for the first time and did surprisingly well. Will be a bit before they are ready to work as a team but a good step in the right direction.

This mare is so sensitive. I don’t even have to touch her with my leg and she goes into a spin with a nice cadence. Such a natural born athlete. I feel the future will be bright for this mare.

I pulled this clip from a video that will be part of a training series that will be available soon for purchase to the public. Just have to brag on this mare. I was working on prepping Josie for a lead change and just thought why not ask her to change and see what happens. This mare is just talented and makes my job easy.

Got to get these two girls out today. It’s also hunting season so lots of great desensitizing to people, deer, and gun fire. These girls were not phased at all. And Josie got her second rider to ever get on her today and just went with everything right in stride. Both mares are coming along nicely.

Did this by accident today. Josie had her first loping training session today. I don’t mind if they counter canter or anything like that as long as they keep loping. She decided to give me a nice little lead change and I did not even ask. She’s a nice athletic filly.

Name reveal !!
Next we have Josie. We decided to name her after Josey Wales. Her show name will be Americas Most Wanted. Found it fitting because who doesn’t want a pretty looking buckskin. She is a 3 year old from triple B, Nevada. She has been taking to training well and moving right along. Congratulations to Ed and Sherrie Hunkele on owning this nice mare. She will also be showing in Vegas next year put on by Mustang Champions.

Name reveal time!!!
We decided to go with cowboy theme names for all the horses. Im a big Clint Eastwood fan and one of my favorite movies is the good, the bad, and the ugly. We found it fitting to call her Angel eyes after Lee van cleefs character. This is a 4 year old mare from sand springs, Oregon. So far she been great to work with and I look forward to what the future holds with this horse. Big congratulations to Morgan Rowden Moorman on owning such a nice mare. We will be competing with this horse in Vegas next year put on by Mustang Champions.

I can’t say enough about my saddle from Dale Chavez Saddlery. Dale taught me just how important saddle fit is. My horses are so much more freed up in their shoulders. I noticed a difference right away in their performance. I chose to get one of his cow horse saddles. He has many different styles and trees to choose from. Give Dale a call and tell him I sent you. With the holidays right around the corner a new saddle is a great gift for someone. And if your looking for anything else tack related he can accommodate as well. I have one of his beautiful head stalls to match my saddle.

These girls are starting to learn some new tricks. Both are progressing well. Got a long way to go until they are ready for Vegas but off to a good start so far.

The three new horses are coming along. Just the other day I was able to get on 2/3 ba****ck. Today I placed saddles on both the blonde mare and buck skin mare, still hesitant but making progress and taking it day by day.
