Loaded At Dawn 🐴
Our 2yr old stud Colt, No Name, didn’t show but did get to tag along with us! He handled the big environment like an old pro.

Gunner Got Platinum ’Ruger’
3yr old AQHA, APHA stud Colt
Started right here at Quarter Dun Horsemanship. Just getting started in his reining career.
Sorry for the overload of Ruger the last few days, but we’re very excited for him!
Last night was beautiful to ride some colts!
Cinco was moving out better for Teagan (only their second ride together), as he’s been a little sticky at the lope. That’s okay as he’s less then 60 days in training & has come a very long ways! He’s got many years ahead to keep learning.

We are so excited to introduce, Charlie, to the Quarter Dun team!
This cute little mini rides & drives that we’ll be using for lessons, Tiny Tots, different events & maybe a trip to town for ice cream 🍦
He’s so much fun!! 🤩

A short glimpse into Libby’s first ride under saddle!
We walk/trot/lope & go both directions. David in the saddle, Daytona on the ground helping move the feet.
She’s going to be one cool mare!

Love watching these baby horses come along! Miss Roni pony is just starting her journey in the bit since we start them all in a hackamore. Softness is key! 🔑

First ride preparation!
It’s important to us before putting a first ride on a colt that we prepare them as much as possible to make the first ride as successful as possible. The first 90-120days in a colt’s career is the most important! It’s what last a lifetime.
Canyon struggled a little with the saddle but especially with things touching his butt, back legs, tail. Being a BLM mustang we don’t know what all he’s encountered previously, on top on being a little more ‘wild’ than our domestic colts. Mustangs are known to not forgive & forget as well as domestic horses. He’s done really well & we’re very proud of him! 💙
Check out David giving him loving all over(especially the butt!) while up in the saddle 😎

4th ride for Mr. Cedar & he’s really coming along. We really enjoyed how he’s engaging his hindquarters in his turns & stop. I think he’s going to make a pretty cool ranch prospect for his owners!

Stop, soften & back up ✨
Good job Brecklyn!
Our girls Tori & Ashtyn had maybe a little to much fun after the lesson today.
Thank god for good horses! 🐴
