Renegade and I are headed to the 2024 Franklin, TN Mustang Heritage Spectacular, where Renegade and I will be competing in-hand! This is due to an injury I sustained in April. Please see the attached photos and videos for an update on his training progress.

Renegade recently participated in the Michigan Mustang Series, where he earned two second-place finishes and a first-place finish in his in-hand classes, out of approximately 14 mustangs. I am extremely proud of his calm and collected demeanor throughout the event. Then we went on our last field trip to the Holland Western Extreme Mountain Trail course. Renegade loved the obstacles and did 40+ obstacles for the first time without hesitation. Renegade is not undersaddle yet. Unfortunately, Renegade got a cut on the right side of his withers, which will require several weeks of downtime from undersaddle work to fully heal. If you are interested in bidding or would like more information, please reach out.

Renegade has been my most difficult, fearful, and reactive mustang to date. I wasn’t sure if he would ever get to this point. I’m so proud of this sweet boy!

Renegade Update!

I realized I haven’t posted about Renegade since I picked him up. Renegade is my draw for the 2024 Franklin, TN Mustang Heritage Spectacular June 20-22nd. He is an 8yr old 15.2 hand bay from Devils Garden. He is a forest service mustang so he does not have a brand. He was very flighty and was very fearful around strangers. He has been one of my most fearful mustangs to date. He still has his moments, but he has made significant progress. We have been working on lots of groundwork and confidence-building over the last couple of months. He is super smart but can be a bit of an overachiever when he learns something new. Here are some pictures from the last couple of weeks. He is absolutely glowing thanks to Green Horse Organics products and he looks pretty handsome in his Ridge Creek Tack halter. I'm excited to see his continued progress!

He will be available via competitive bid on June 22nd at the Williamson County Ag Expo In Franklin, TN.

I’m excited to announce that I will be competing in the Michigan Mustang Series Challenge with a Devils Garden forest service mustang this year! He was named Knightly by the corral staff. He is an 8 year old 15.3 hand dark bay gelding. He was noted as very calm and has only half a right ear. Pick up is on 2/4/24.

We went on the Michigan Shoreine ride for the 3rd year in a row yesterday. All the horses did amazing! I even took Moon’s bridle off and galloped her down the beach bridless.

I realized I never posted Nugget’s photos from the 2023 Michigan TIP Open show! Nugget did amazing and placed first in handling/conditioning, first in trail, 3rd in freestyle, and Reserve champion overall for the open show. I am very proud of how hard she tried for me especially she has been on the back burner due to my other competition mustangs. I can only imagine what she will accomplish! For those of you that don’t know Nugget was my first mustang that I got wild to compete in the 2022 Michigan TIP Challenge as a yearling in the adult division we won Reserve Champion for the TIP challenge and Champion in the open show last year. She is truly incredible and I’m so excited to be competing in the Michigan Mustang Series shows next year with her. She is now 15 hands at 2.5 years old and still growing.

Thank you to Green Horse Organics for making all my competition horses glow, to Ridge Creek Tack for the amazing rope halters and leads, and to Unbridled Ranch for the incredible photos!

This sweetheart is looking for her forever home!

Ajax is a 3yr old 14.2 hand sorrel Mustang mare from Antelope Valley, NV. She is very sweet. She can still be slightly nervous around strangers initially, but warms up quickly. She halters, leads, picks up all 4 feet, loads/ unloads in the trailer, lunges, and is lightly started under saddle W/T. She just had her feet trimmed last week. Her hair is now braided to train it the the right side. She is eligible to compete in the 2024 Mustang Champions challenges. See Mustang Champions for more information on the competition.

Adopted

How has this adorable face not found a home yet?

Lyla is a 3.5 year old 14 hand Palomino Mustang mare from Adobe Town, WY. She has had extensive ground work including liberty and tricks. Tricks include lay down, sit up, sit on bean bag, bow, and Spanish walk. Lyla W/T/C, backs, turns on the haunches/forehand, is starting to side pass under saddle, and will sidepass over to the fence for mounting. She has been ridden ba****ck and bridleless. She loves trail rides and playing in water crossings. She is such a sweetheart and loves attention/scratches. She is good turned out with mares or geldings. Lyla and I competed in the Michigan Mustang TIP Challenge where you have 100 days to train a wild Mustang and then showcase them at the competition. We placed 2nd in Handling/conditioning, 5th in Trail, 4th in Freestyle, and Reserve Champion Overall! Lyla's winter coat is starting to come in so I added a photo of her summer coat below.

Meet Ajax! Avaiable for adoption.

Ajax is a 3-year-old 14.2ish hand (maybe taller) Sorrel mare from Antelope Valley, NV. I picked her up 6 days ago. We took the first couple of sessions slowly as she was quite nervous once we got back and was too scared to eat. This sweet girl acclimated quickly and she is now eating/drinking well, haltering, learning to lead, loves chest scratches, and I‘m able to pet her all over. This girl is an absolute sweetheart and will be available for adoption.

Edit: As of 9/24 she is picking up all her feet and has had her first ride. She was calm and collected the entire time.

A much needed Murphy Update!
I am extremely grateful that I had the chance to compete in this year's Extreme Mustang Makeover. Murphy did amazing. We got first in handling/conditioning and ended up placing 24th overall out of 49 people. I bought Murphy back at the end of the competition. I felt that it was in Murphy's best interest to find the perfect home for her. Murphy is Active and would excel in an active home whether it be trail riding, extreme trail, showing, liberty work, etc. With that being said Murphy is still looking for her forever home. Her laceration has fully healed and the fur is starting to grow back!

Murphy’s Outlaw aka Murphy is a 14.1h 6-year-old black Mustang mare from Sheepshead-Heath Creek Oregon.

✔️ Super sweet and curious
✔️ Great with mares or geldings (will correct pushy horses then go back to her normal business)
✔️ Great on trails prefers to lead in the front, but will fall back if asked
✔️Crosses water on Trails and loves playing in it
✔️Loves liberty work
✔️Easy to halter, lead, load, tie, and picks up all feet
✔️Good for vet and farrier. (Can get a little tense with new vets/farriers touching her at first, but does great after a couple of minutes)
✔️Has strong hooves and does not need to be shoed
✔️Great walk/trot/canter in the arena or on the trail
✔️ Sidepasses, pivots, and backs
✔️Can be ridden in halter or snaffle
✔️Handles a show environment great
✔️Has trailered to an extreme trail course and did great
✔️Can sometimes be a little nervous when she sees something new (pauses, sometimes snorts, then goes about her normal business)
✔️ Has a great stop and spin
✔️Would excel in trail riding, ranch riding, reining, endurance, and liberty.

I am so proud of Murphy this weekend! She tried so hard and that’s all that really matters to me ❤️ We placed 1st in Handling/conditioning out of 48 people. The maneuvers class did not go as planned we were nearly last to go and a lot of the horses before her were terrified of the white signs in the arena. Unfortunately, Murphy was one of the ones that was scared, we still finished the pattern and I let her sniff some of the signs. She did great for her trail pattern and was a little looky at the walls expecting a sign to be there so I decided Murphy would be most confident just walking and trotting the pattern. She never once spooked. We get the rest of the results this morning. I am really happy with how well she’s done considering she had a month off total (cut it, started to heal, then opened it back up) before the competition to let her laceration heal. The laceration looks great, it is still missing the top layer of fur. If you have any questions about how to adopt Murphy at the auction today please come see me or message me!

Murphy’s Outlaw
It’s hard to believe Murphy and I leave for the Extreme Mustang Makeover in Franklin, TN on Tuesday. Murphy got a laceration on her fetlock and has had the last 2 weeks to rest and heal before the competition. Her laceration is looking great and we got the go-ahead to still show! It certainly wasn’t the way I had planned to spend our last 2 weeks, but I spent the time hanging out and loving on her. I’m definitely going to miss this sweet girl. She has come so far and I am so proud of her no matter how we do at the competition ❤️ Below is more information about Murphy.

Murphy is a 14-hand 6-year-old black Mustang mare from Sheepshead-Heath Creek Oregon. She will be available for adoption via competitive bid at the Tennessee Extreme Mustang Makeover June 22-24 in Franklin, TN. Please reach out if you are interested in her.

Day 11
Tag 3288 is no longer a number introducing Lyla. She has been doing amazing and is such a sweetheart. She is leading, tying, fly sprays, wears a fly mask, grooms all over, picks up all 4 feet, and leads outside her pen. We have been taking it nice and easy while Lyla got adjusted. She was so skinny when I picked her up. I can still see her ribs, but she is starting to fill out!

She will be available after the challenge. Lyla is a 3yr old palomino from Adobe Town, WY. Please reach out if you are interested in her!

Introducing tag #3288 a 3yr old palomino from Adobe Town, WY. I just picked up her yesterday for the Michigan TIP Challenge in August. She is very curious. I was able to get her tag off last night, pet her all the way down to her butt, and brush her a little. Today we worked on getting the halter on, leading, brushing her out, and picking up her front legs.

She will be available after the challenge. Please reach out if you are interested in her!

We are sitting at about 50 days since I picked Murphy up. It’s crazy that we are halfway through our time together already. Murphy trailered to her first open ride night on Thursday. She was so calm and collected the entire time. Then she hung out at her first show yesterday. We did not compete due to the huge class sizes. I decided just to let Murphy take it all in. She did amazing kids RUNNING behind her, cars and trailers driving behind her while horses were showing in the area in front of her, and people running on the bleachers beside her. We played around on the race track Murphy had fun really stretching her legs. Overall it was such a great exposure experience!

Murphy has been doing great she went about 7.5 miles on her first trail ride on April 8th (tenth ride overall). She did great overall she walked, trotted, and cantered down the trails like she’s done it a thousand times. Some of the horses took off galloping and she kept calmly walking. She loves water and had a ton of fun playing in it. She is going to be such a nice trail horse! She had her first dental, hoof trim, and bath on April 12th. We plan to go to our first show next weekend!
