FearLis Mustangs, US/191, Pinedale, WY (2025)

EDIT: We found the needle in the haystack home for her! She's even staying in Wyoming and going to a friend of mine so I can keep tabs on her. Thank you to everyone who shared this post and commented. 🥰

Looking for the “needle in a haystack” home for this girl.
14.3hh, 6 year old from Salt Wells, WY. Currently located in Pinedale, WY.

Don’t let the photos fool you- this mare is not gentled.

I have honestly started and worked with hundreds of mustangs at this point- and she has to be the weirdest horse I have ever tried to train.

You can do ANYTHING you want to her… as long as you are 6+ feet away. She’s honestly the ideal COVID social distancing ambassador. When you encroach on that 6ft margin- she loses her marbles.

She is titled so BLM requirements don’t necessarily apply- BUT I highly recommend working her in a corral with panels 7ft or higher as she has sailed and destroyed many of my 6ft panels. In terms of pasture- she’ll stay within a short electric fence/ buckrail/ and wire. She only jumps if she feels like she’s too pressured.

Crazy enough- she’s always one of the first ones- if not the first to come up out of the pasture to see what I am up to. She won’t eat out of my hand, but I always toss a treat in her direction and she’ll pick it up off the ground.

If you back the trailer up to the corral, she will jump right in as she loves to go places… just don’t try to touch her wherever you go lol.

This mare needs an EXPERIENCED mustang trainer home, but also someone who has the TIME to put into her. +R home preferred.

She honestly is super sweet as she would never do anything to hurt anyone. She just has a super hard time being touched by human hands… like I can throw a rope or wave a flag around her from 6ft away and she will stand there with her leg cocked and lip drooped in relaxation. Trying to pet her though with my own hand? She loses all composure and does anything to get away.

I have considered sending her to a Sanctuary… but I don’t want her to go to any places that bashes the BLM. Yes I am putting my own politics in front of her care. If a sanctuary is pro-management, the next obstacle is they must have a tilt chute to take care of her feet as again- she is not gentled nor really handible.

I personally do not have the facilities I would need to safely work with her on a consistent basis. I also cannot keep her on my feed bill with everything else I have going on in life.

I am not asking anything for her- I just need to find the perfect place for her. I can haul her anywhere in the country as long as my gas/time is covered.

Please let me know if you or someone you know may be the “needle in the haystack” home she needs.

Feel free to share.
Send me a PM or FearLis Mustangs if you’re interested. I won’t be able to keep track of the comments.

PS- I call her 'Peppa' for Peppa the Pig. I thought it was cute because she is always hungry… instead- after 2 years of my time, she keeps trying to show me that pigs can fly and I cannot afford her flight lessons anymore.

2ND EDIT: WE DID IT! Chileno is no longer available to a new home- because thanks to everyone who supported the GoFundMe- we reached my insurance deductible! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I posted a video on my personal page Lisanne Fear to give you all in insight into what Chileno and I have gone through.

Thank you all sooo much! My boy gets to stay with me. ❤️

EDIT: After many suggestions- I opened a GoFundMe page to try and cover my deductible without Chileno leaving home. If after a week I haven't fundraised enough- I will sell Chileno and refund everyone their donations.

You can donate here:

For those interested in this horse- please reach out and I will still answer any questions. I just won't make a final decision until Tuesday, July 29.

This is the hardest decision my heart has ever made… but I need to find Chileno a new home. Recently I was life flighted (not for a horse accident) and I have some medical bills to pay.

Chileno is a 15hh, 2011 model, dappled buckskin, mustang, from Divide Basin, WY, HMA.

This horse physically carried me from one coast of our great country to the other, 5000 miles from Delaware to California, over the course of 14 months.

Walking 20-25 miles a day, 4-5 days a week, he averaged a 4.25mph walking pace. Working in trotting, his average pace for each day ranged 5-6mph for the day depending on terrain.

Chileno is the ultimate endurance and long riding horse. He’s big, he’s strong, and he’ll go through anything.

His resume is mile long. Was started in the Wyoming Honor Farm prison program and then worked as a Wrangler’s Guide horse on a remote dude ranch in the Gros Ventre Wilderness for 3 seasons. He has done some obstacles and liberty work, but was not meant to be a trick pony. He’s a horse who likes to cover ground. He’s been jumped a tiny bit. He’s been roped off of, but has only drug inanimate objects. (Minus that one time we roped a guy in Missouri and drug him off the beer cooler he was blocking.) Chileno fearlessly led us through the streets of downtown Washington DC and onto the National Mall. He’s carried the mail at a full gallop on the Pony Express. He’s gone through tunnels half a mile long and over bridges 600ft high. You point him, he goes.

With all of that being said though, he can be a knucklehead. This horse never relaxes and never gets tired. Also not the brightest bulb in the box. Chileno loves to be the leader of the herd, but doesn’t always rule fairly.

Everyday on trail when I was riding him, he would spook 2-5 times a day. His spook generally consists of a few big side steps. I have videos to show what I am talking about.

This horse is not for a beginner. He likes to go and he likes to cover ground.

If you’re looking for your next leisure trail horse, I hope you like riding alone or you have friends that are willing to trot all day to keep up with him. He sets a hard pace and he will maintain it all day every day.

Unfortunately, Chileno permanently has Lyme’s disease and it will flare up every 6 months to a year. He first acquired this when came out of Maryland, into West Virginia, and had one flare up when crossing Illinois. I just keep doxycycline on hand and when he has a flare up needs to be rested and treated for two weeks.

Otherwise, this horse is the pinnacle of health.
This horse is a legend and he will be the star of a feature documentary covering our journey across America, to be released in 2025.

There are hours of video of him online here on and YouTube with JA Media.
He is up to date on everything. Vet checks can be made and arranged at adopters expense.

I am asking svn-✋ hundo for him. It's the cost of my out-of-network deductible for my insurance.

He is absolutely a remarkable animal, and I was hoping to compete in the Tevis cup in two years on him. With new health priorities though, he and I will not have the time to train together to reach such an ambitious goal.

Chileno is a horse who wants to work and loves to move. He can sit in the pasture for 6 months and when you go to ride him again, it’s not like a day has gone by. He needs a job though, as he is not happy just sitting around, and that’s why I have come to this difficult decision.

I will not be responding to comments on this post. I have zero time for people who waste my time.

I am a straight shooter, and have nothing to hide. Most every question can be answered by actually reading this post and looking through previous posts, videos, and photos on the MDR page.

Currently located in Pinedale, WY. Can make arrangements to haul anywhere in the US. Willing to do Zoom call meet & greets.
Please help me find this movie star’s forever home by sharing this post and tagging your friends.

Chileno is a rock star and he deserves a legendary home. Please share, share, share.

For my second ride ever on Roci, we rode out our first spook together! (This is the full and un-cut video)

Now that I am in my early thirties, I recognize that I do not have the balance nor the velcro like seat I had in my youth. With that in mind though, I am really impressed with this mare for being so sound of mind.

This is the first time I have ever tried to start a horse at liberty undersaddle and it's definitely been a learning experience! Most of what I am doing with her is experimentation for me and I am so grateful that this particular horse is my partner in this journey.

Rocinante has just enough spice to keep me on my toes while simultaneously being a sweet & patient soul. 🦄

Hope you all enjoy. I would love to know why you think she is continually investigating the ground throughout this video. 😘

If you do watch this all the way through- thank you for watching and for being a part of our journey.

This was a moment that I have strived for and dreamed of for years- putting a first ride on a horse of mine completely at liberty for the very first time. Thank you Rocinante for being my partner and achieving this with me. ❤️

If you do choose to watch, please watch with patience lol. Hopefully you enjoy the rambling commentary and unedited film. Maybe through watching this you'll learn something new... even I did upon watching the video again after being the one who was actually there.

This video is a little journal entry for myself, and I am happy to share it with you all. As I mention in the video, I work with my client horses a little bit differently than I work with my own horses, so this serves as a transparent window into how I build a stronger and deeper bond with my personal horses.

Hope you enjoy.

This was the entire session of me putting the blanket on Pine Nut this morning on the 4th Day. Kinda sad that this afternoon is my last session with this special mustang. I've learned a lot from him. ❤️

08/04/2024

Here was my 3rd Day Session with Pine Nut.

This is uncut and unedited so I apologize for any sound issues. I end up haltering Pine Nut and doing a bit of leading him outside of the corral, so my friend Dani who was filming, was trying to narrate what was going on while I was too far away from the camera.

Thank you guys for all the support. And if you watch this video in it's entirety, I admire your dedication to learning. 🫶

Here is the uncut version of our second day session with mr. Pine Nut. He's such a cool horse and I am very proud of his progress.

This horse is available for adoption through Great Escape Mustang Collaborative- check out their site for more information.

Pine Nut's first session at the Adams County Fair's The Mustang Summit.This video is uncut so I apologize for the audio maybe being a little hard to hear at times.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in the comments or send me a PM.

Quite the memorable 4th of July today! My sister (Abi Fear) kicked off the morning with making me an aunt again with niece #2!

Then I rode my Mustang mare Salt in Michael Edison and I’s two-man parade down Main Street. I have never rode Salt with a flag before so we decided to skip the chuck wagon day parade in Big Piney and practice on a smaller scale at home for the Rendezvous parade next weekend.

Hope everyone has a happy and safe Independence Day!!

If you would like to continue reading a bit more- here are some additional details to today’s story:

Never did I ever; think that I would be able to ride Salt down a busy street with a flag. Not to mention the town chose today to spray for mosquitos. I soooo wish I had it on video: Salt, a previously wild Wyoming Mustang, proudly carrying the Wyoming state flag while a helicopter flew directly over head, and she wasn’t bothered one bit.

For reference of the importance of this moment- Salt was rounded up out of the wild by helicopter as a 4 year old from Green Mountain, WY (over by Jeffrey City). For those who think the mustangs suffer from PTSD of being rounded up by chopper, I strongly disagree.

However… my friend Mike allowed someone to jump on his horse for some special Independence Day photos. As you can see in the one photo, the girl riding Lima is only holding the flag… not holding onto the reins at all. On one chopper pass, Lima decided it was time to go back to the trailer and took off (at a joggers pace).

More reference- Salt has less than 100 rides on her in the last 10 years since I adopted her as an untouched wild horse. In the last 2 years since I finished my ride across the country, she has only been ridden 4 times: my bachelorette party (last ride before becoming a bride), my wedding day (where she crow hopped a friend off that morning), last week on the pony express, and then… today.

So- for us to take off to rescue the girl on Lima, while carrying a flag, an energy drink, and a chopper buzzing overhead, was a scenario I could have never dreamed ending well while I riding the toughest mustang I have tamed and trained in my life. But it did. It went precisely as it needed to go!

The gal on Lima kept her cool and never dropped the American Flag. Salt was able to catch up without spilling a drop of my drink and our flag still upright. We were able to get ahold of Lima’s lead and bring her and her passenger back safely.

I am so proud of Salt. I know not everyone has the patience and resources to wait nearly a decade for a horse to come around to the idea of domestic life, but I sure am grateful I made it happen. What Salt has taught me over the last 10 years of knowing her is completely priceless.

When I first brought Salt home, it was 2 months of consistently working her before she let me touch her for the first time. It was another 2 years before I rode her for the first time… it’s been a long journey for sure.

I have bought, sold, and traded quite a few horses in the last 10 years, but I never did part with Salt in that time. I was so scared she would be one of the many misunderstood extremely reactive and outright wild horses that would more than likely end up in a bad place.

Patience is definitely one of my weakest virtues, but whenever I look at Salt, I realize maybe I am not so impatient after all… or maybe the reality is that I am just too stubborn to give up.

Once again, happy 4th of July to anyone still reading this. It’s definitely an Independence Day that I will never forget. ❤️🙏🇺🇸
