What is better than one Devil’s Garden two year old Mustang? Well, three DG”s of course!! I took a little video of my three Two yr old DG’s having a little fun in the round pen. Teddy and Hook were born at my place in May of 2022 and Hank was gathered the same year (mother unknown). Hank was adopted out to Idaho that same year and through no fault of his own, he wound up back at the corrals this year where I was lucky enough to end up with him. Enjoy the video!

More adventures of Miss Marley this week!
Check this mare out - she is amazing!
More video, info and pictures can be found at - www.vsequine.com

This truly special little mare is still available! She is proving to be a truly great trail horse. She hasn’t said no to anything that’s been thrown at her, she is so easy going, uncomplicated, such a great personality, gets along with everyone, and is also pretty easy on the eyes! I can’t believe someone hasn’t snatched her up! She will continue with her life experiences and training until she finds her special person! She is on the smaller side, so she would be great for the smaller rider! She is light and sensitive, smart and willing. She has been horse camping and hauls around great. She has even been ridden solo out in the trail. If you are looking for a Mustang to take you down the trail and are looking for a shorter horse, look no further! Miss Marley stands about 13.3 is 8 years old, is a titled Mustang from the Devils Garden HMA, she has great hair, great feet and legs, is UTD on dental, vaccinations and worming, she wears no shoes, needs no maintenance and is ready to hit the trail now!

DG Waylon and his other “Stang” buddies got their dentals this week. They were all SO good and I was even paid a very nice complement from the Veterinarian, that these previously wild horses behaved better than most of their ranch horses, made me feel good about their training and proud of them big shout out to Essex Veterinary Services!

DG Warby who just three months ago was chargy and defensive, not afraid to use his hind feet, got dental work done this week and is just doing so great! He was so sweet day after dentals - almost like he knew we were in that whole dental process together! These Mustangs never cease to amaze me! Heather Bo
