RAW Mustangs

Hello! My name is Rebekah Ann Welters and I am a Mustang Heritage Foundation approved TIP trainer Working with mustangs, however, is not a new concept for me.

My business, RAW Mustangs, is the product of a lifelong dream to work with and train mustangs. I got my first untouched mustang, Flicka, when I was just 13 years old, and to this day she is still a willing and trusting partner. Since Flicka I have gentled and worked with multiple mustangs as well as domestic bred horses. When working with mustangs I approach it as an opportunity to create trust an

d build a solid foundation for that horse to grow from and have a successful career in any discipline. Aside from gentling mustangs, I also host clinics of various disciplines to help my clientele and their horses continually build upon their skills. TIP Requirements:
Gentling requirements include, animals must be leading, loading in a trailer, allowing human contact for grooming, and picking up all 4 feet to be considered as ready for adoption. These are the minimum training requirements. More info on the TIP Program:

🦷Took a trip to town for their first dentals. They were both great patients and very well behaved!

‼️😆Here are the 7 yearlings that will be available at the Adoption Event in Corvallis.
I recognize some of them from our visit to the corrals back in June.
If anyone is interested in adopting one of these, please reach out! I’m more than happy to help you with the adoption and gentling process.

🐄Dairy and river outing.🌊 They both did great with all the sites, sounds and smells. It was refreshing to cool off from a hot day and these two seemed to really enjoy it!

Mare and Gelding (Names to be decided)
Owned by- Jan Christian Suddergaard Andersen
Mare- Tag # 8345 -Liver Chestnut -5 year old -Sand Springs HMA, OR.
Gelding- Tag # 6243 -Brown -7 year old -Black Rock Range HMA, NV.

These two horses have been some of the most, easy and enjoyable older horses we’ve gentled and started! Both of them came in, very mellow and calm and from day one have been a delight to be around. Both in their own ways have been very willing and trainable. We picked them up in Nevada, about 2 months ago, completely wild and untouched and here is where they are currently at in their training.

Both horses can:
-Be caught by anyone in any size of pen/pasture.
-Respectful and easy to halter.
-Softly leads and backs up.
-Stand tied politely, with hard tie, soft tie and cross ties.
-Grooms nose to tail and everywhere in between.
-Pick up, pick out and trim all four feet.
-Loads, stands correctly and backs out of the trailer softly.
-Respectful with other horses, mares and geldings. (The mare does get mare-ish while in season)
-Respects fences. (Hot and solid fences)
-Hobbled trained
-Stands for hose downs and baths. The mare loves the pampering and the gelding likes to play with the water.
-Fly sprays
-Fly masks
-Body maneuvers and moves off of pressure wherever pressure is applied. (lowers head, forehand turn, haunch turn, side passing both directions, lateral flexion, backing up softly, follow nose to tail to untangled, and etc)
-Round penning and lunging. Walk, trot, canter and stops off of voice commands, turns and gives you two eyes for respect.
-Desensitizing/ Sacking out. (Tarps, poles, plastic bags, flags, ropes, blankets, pool noodles, and etc)
-Goes those obstacle courses with ease. Gate, poles, bridge, moves “scary” objects (slicker a.k.a. rain jacket and garbage bag with cans in it.), mailbox, walk over and back off of a narrow tarp, walk though pool noodle box/ cowboy curtain box, brush pile, hanging tarp, rope and drag log, drag tier though the stumps, wave flag all around and place back in barrel, cross ditch/ water. The obstacle course consistently gets changed up and they take it all in strides.
-Roped out and gives to the rope. (All four feet, girth, flank, rimfire, and etc.)
-Wears saddles and carries the bit
-Sacking out and desensitizing with the saddle on.
-Ground tie while loading and unloading objects in the saddle bags. Plastic bags and empty cans. (Pretty much loud scary noises.) lol

They are getting a lot of exposure to daily life on a farm and with farming and activities going on constantly around them and learning the ins and outs of being a domestic horse.
Cars, trucks, tractors, farm equipment, bicycles, farm animals, dogs, wildlife, wild kids and etc. Just to name a few of the things they have seen so far.

They both love affection and scratches from adults and kids. Definitely no stranger danger. Looking forward to seeing what the future holds for these two, so far it looks bright.🌟

Hello everyone! We’ve been a little quiet on here lately but not but choice! Life has been busy with a full barn of horses, hay to make, colts to start, etc, and we apologize there hasn’t been very many updates! We are hoping to get caught up this week on posting updates for all of the current horses in the barn so stay tuned!

🚨 We need your feedback! 🚨

We are currently floating the idea of hosting Nate Eicher of Eicher Ranch for a clinic at the Linn County Fairgrounds in Albany, Oregon on August 10th and 11th.

Nate is a renowned horseman and trainer. He has competed in several competitions including Mustang Champions at the Fort Worth Stock Show, Road to the Horse Wildcard Challenge, and more! This would be a great opportunity to learn from one of the best!

We need to know how much interest there would be because we would be flying Nate out from Texas to put the clinic on so we want to make sure it would be worth everyone’s time.

The clinic would be a two day in saddle or in hand clinic on Horsemanship/Building Confidence. 14 spots would be available at $500 for the two days. Teens And Oregon Mustangs participants would get a reduced price of $430/spot(this is just our cost to put on the clinic). Auditors are welcome for $25/day.

If you are participating in the Teens and Mustangs challenge this would be a great opportunity just 3 weeks ahead of the competition to introduce your horse to the fairgrounds and facilities!
