Meet the newest mustang! 😁 This is my pick for the Mustang Champions - Western Challenge Vegas 2024 and the Mustang Champions - English Classic Kentucky 2024

He's a 5 year old palomino gelding from Maverick Medicine NV, somewhere around 14hh (Currently has no name, but hopefully will soon! 😂)

He's already progressing really nice and quickly and I'm excited for this new journey to see how this little guy turns out! 🤎

This super gorgeous and flashy mustang is available 😍

~Dahlia is a 4 year old mustang mare from the High Rock CA HMA.
~She stands at about 13.3 or 14hh.
~Broke to ride
~Started on steering with leg pressure and riding bridless
~She has been on many trail rides
~Walks over all sorts of obstacles
~Started on a spin
~Nice stops
~side passes in hand and under saddle
~She has been off the property and to different arena's many times
~Has had several different people ride her
~Loads into the trailer
And so much more!

Dahlia was my draw for the 2024 Mustang Magic competition but I sadly had to pull her out of it due to her injury. Dahlia broke her left hind splint bone and will need a minor surgery to get it fixed and to heal. The vet said it should only take 6-8 weeks for recovery and will make a full recovery! Dahlia will just need someone willing to put a little time and money into her. Once recovered she will make someone the best riding partner. She has a really good training foundation and could go in any direction especially trail riding, liberty, English riding or an all around horse😊

- Located in Nocona Texas
-$125 BLM Fee
-Must have an approved BLM application
-$3500 Training Fee

Please shoot me a message for more information! Thank you!

How did the first saddling go with an ex bucking horse? Pretty much the way you might expect it 😂 But after about 10 minutes he was trotting around like he's done this forever 😊😂

23/07/2023

🔥This little cutie is finally available!!🔥

✨2 Years old
✨15hh
✨ Registered
✨ Quarter Horse
✨ Gelding
✨ Solid Foundation
✨ Ranch, Roping, Barrel, Trail Prospect (but not limited to those)

He has the solid foundation for you to turn him into any kind of horse you're looking for:

-He's athletic and has the ability and maneuvers to make a nice ranch, or roping horse.

- He can move slowly and relaxed enough to make a show horse or western pleasure horse.

-He has barrel bloodlines to make an excellent barrel horse, or even turn him into your trail riding partner.

-He doesn't even have a name so he's ready to have his very own original and forever name 😊😂

Please reach out and shoot me a message or give me a call if you are interested in him! I can send additional photos and information along with videos and a picture of his papers.

Thank you!!

Hey everyone! 😊 I haven't posted anything on this page for a long time so here's a quick, random (kinda big) update!!...

First off, meet the current 3 client horses! 😊

First picture is Cinder 🐴 she's a sweet little POA pony who will be here for a refresher on riding!

Second is Comanche 🐴 He is also a POA pony who is also here for a refresher.

Third picture is Demi 🐴 A 5 year old quarter horse/thoroughbred cross who's been here for starting under saddle.

I have also been working with my sister's new draft cross ex-bucking horse (4th picture)

A couple months ago I picked up two project horses (the paint and the buckskin) and they will both be ✨available✨ for new homes in just a couple weeks! These two are young and have a really solid start on them, which makes them perfect to go in any direction!

Lastly, I've been working with my 2 personal mustangs, Reya and Aurora, as often as I can, which means only a couple times a week 😂 but they're both doing great and I'll keep y'all updated on them 😊

I am completely full with client horses for the summer through this fall and I really appreciate y'all for the amount of interest and people sending me horses😊 I couldn't do it without you. If you have a horse that you'd be interested in sending to me, shoot me a message and I can get you on the list for late fall or next spring!

04/04/2023

Hey everyone!

I am all filled up with training horses for the next 2-3 months but will be taking in more client horses later this summer and fall! Don't wait to get your horse on the list! I offer anything from c**t starting, to mustang gentling, to finishing out a horse along with doing refreshers and much more.

Please contact me via email, phone call or message, or send me a pm!

Sharing this post would be appreciated! Thank you and have a wonderful day!

Hey everyone!

I decided to set up a GoFundMe for our Mustang Magic Competition.

There's A LOT that goes into training these horses, and being able to make it to the competition. Most of it is just hours and hours of consistent work! But there's definitely the financial part of it. I'm asking for donations to help cover the costs of my freestyle props and outfit. I'm also asking for donations to help me win Reya back after the competition! I am hoping she does not get bid up very high but if she does the donations would help so much and be so appreciated ❤️☺️

If you cannot donate,sharing will help just as much! ❤️

Thank you!!

Mustang Magic update!

The first time I laid eyes on this mare I knew she would be special…

While I was going through all my choices of mares for the mustang magic competition I kept coming back to this mare, there was something really different and special about her, most of it was her build and her confirmation, but I also noticed her mind, the way she acted in the pen, the way she interacted with the people walking by and the other horses in her pen. I knew I had to pick her. I knew she would make an awesome horse, a perfect partner.

These past 4 months with this mare have been the most challenging yet rewarding months I've had with a makeover horse, however, all my makeover horses have their different challenges! But this mare has really brought me to another level in my training, she's the first one Ive finally brought the furthest, all on my own. This horse hasn't been easy to train at all! She has many odd quirks I've never dealt with before. She was pretty stand-offish in the beginning, she became a little aggressive, and has a really bad habit of becoming really tense and gets claustrophobic very easily. All of these things make her pretty difficult and different to work with. But under all of that, she's the most amazing horse to work with and to ride once I've worked all the kinks out! She's a pleaser when she understands the tasks, and works so hard for me when she finally understands the assignment.

With all of that being said…

I can't miss my chance with her! I'm going to try to win her back and keep her as my own personal horse after the competition. Of course when I sign up for these I know I must put my horse up for auction at the end, and if someone bids higher I will have to let her go, and that's just the way it is. But this mare is pretty special to me, and the very first makeover horse I have ever wanted to keep. I see SO much potential in her, it's amazing! She's going to need a lotttt of work, and a lot of just years of consistent riding to get her finished out really well. But if I win her back she will become my every day, all around horse!

Thunder is one of my current client horses in for training! He's a cute little thoroughbred here for some extensive ground work

Meet the newest client horse!

🤎🤍Mustang Available🤍🤎

All about Miracle!! 😁⬇️⬇️⬇️

Miracle is my 2022 Texas Extreme Mustang Makeover horse. He is a 3 year old gelding from the High Rock CA HMA! He will be available through a bidding auction in Fort Worth Texas this coming September 10th. Miracle was completely wild when I picked him up and I have been training him for 13 weeks! Miracle has such a sweet and relaxed personality and disposition. He has always been extremely laid back ever since day 1, he has the kindest eyes, always carries his head low and basically acts like an old broke horse 😂

But he is not perfect! I want to make sure his potential buyers understand everything about him, the good and the bad.

We have gone through bad days, Miracle can be calm and until he is not, he's not spooky by any means, or constantly snorting, or acting nervous about something new I show him, he RARELY spooks! But miracle has showed me that when he is scared or alarmed by something he CAN run! He CAN bolt, and mostly likely would try to if something sets him off enough. This doesn't make him a bad horse, it just shows that he is a horse and there will be things that his owner will have to work on!

Everything Miracle can do 😁

-Miracle can ride around great at a walk trot lope!
-He can STOP! It's his favorite thing to do😂
-He can pivot in-hand and under saddle
-He'll walk over any obstacle or object you point him over! Such as a bridge, mattress, through a cowboy curtain, over tarps, and many more! 😁
- He can side pass at a stand still, while walking and trotting.
-Miracle can ride through loud, crowded parades, through towns and busy places, and still maintains very calm and relaxed!
- Go over jumps in hand or under saddle

Tricks! ✨

Miracle knows many trucks such as:
-Spanish walk
-Lay down on cue ( and can pick me up from the ground)
-Bow
-Sit on a bean bag in-hand and under saddle
-lope small circles around me
- side pass away from me and towards me
-pivot away from me and towards me
- piaffe ( In progress)
- sit up ( in progress)

What he would be good at-

-Roping!!! 🤠 He has the build, the stop and the mind for it!
-Ranch work! He's built very ranchy, muscular and stout!
-Western Pleasure! He has beautiful slow gaits, perfect for pleasure shows!
-Traip riding! He does amazing on trail rides and makes each ride really fun and relaxing!

But he is not limited to only those certain things😎Miracle could honestly go in ANY direction!!

Please reach out to me for more information on Miracle 😊 I would be happy to help answer any questions for you!

Hi there everyone! I am asking for donations to help cover costs for the 2022 Texas Extreme Mustang Makeover.

This year I am competing in my 3rd Extreme Mustang Makeover with a 3-year -old mustang gelding I named Miracle. I have about four months to train him and have him riding under saddle to be prepared for the Extreme Mustang Makeover this September on the 8th 9th and 10th. I am working with him daily twice a day and spend about 25-30 hours on him per week to draw out his full potential! A LOT goes into training these wild mustangs for the competition. But there is the financial side of it that goes into training untouched mustangs for the competition. I must make sure he is gaining enough weight for him to be safe to ride, which means I am spending money to pay for good quality hay, various kinds of grain/feed, weight gaining supplements, healthy skin and coat supplements, fly spray and much more! I have also had to take Miracle to the vet several times for a cough he came with from pick up. Then there is all of my freestyle outfits, freestyle props and show equipment that I must also have prepared for the competition, along with so many other things!

With all of that being said, I would GREATLY appreciate donations, anything will help! If you have a business you would like me to promote for you and give a public shout-out, I would also be willing to do that for you! If you cannot donate, sharing will help just as much! Thank you!

Another client horse arrived a couple days ago! He is a 3 year old quarter horse and will be here to be started under saddle. We've had a couple sessions so far and he seems like he'll be a nice horse to work with!

Quick little update on this girl!

This is Aurora, my new personal mustang! I have finally started riding her about a month ago and she's doing amazing!! I've had about 8 rides on her so far in the round pen at a walk, trot and lope. She's so amazing to ride and so fun!! Her trot is sooo smooth and nice to ride. I'm excited to keep working with her and teach her all sorts of things!

I have not posted anything on here about my Texas Extreme Mustang Makeover horse on this page yet... So for those who do not know, here is my 2022 Fort Worth TX Extreme Mustang Makeover draw!

This is Miracle, he is a 3 year old chestnut gelding from the high rock mountains NV. He stands at about 14.1 hh. I have had him for about 3 weeks and so far and we're making a lot of progress! I will post more updates here about how he's been doing lately and everything he has learned!

And don't forget that after the competition, Miracle will be up for auction and available to anyone! He will make someone a wonderful horse 😁

A lot has been happening here lately!!

In the last couple of weeks we've been making great training progress, had some horses go home, and picked up a new mustang!

A couple days ago Holliday (one of the TIP mustangs) went home to be with his adopter. He sure was a tough little guy and will still be needing lots of time and patience to get over his bolting. But he was another great mustang to learn from.

On Saturday my new mare arrived 😊 I had won her on an online mustang auction and finally had her delivered here. She's already doing amazing things and I'm loving her personality, and her big stout build. I Will try and post most of the updates about her on this page.

And today the last 2 of the TIP mustangs went home! Those two are doing so well under saddle and I am very satisfied and pleased with their training here. Also today, one of the current client mustangs, liberty, that I have in for training did very well with riding today. She's been here about 3 weeks or so and she's coming along very well.

14/04/2022

Liberty's first sit!

This little mare is coming well, she's been here a little over a week and she's been saddled a couple times, I've sat on her ba****ck a couple times and will walk and trot riding ba****ck.

08/04/2022

Update on the current TIP mustangs!!

They're all making great and fast progress!
Astra( grey mare) is doing very well, she's had about 5 good rides on her, she's riding out at a walk, trot, and lope, she's learning to be responsive and back up and also learning to ride with the bridle.

Jasper ( small bay) has been doing well under saddle. We've come across a couple issues under saddle but he's getting better and starting to ride out more confidently. He's had 3 rides in the arena and did well.

Geode (tall Bay)Geode went to his new home the other day! my sister Rebecca has been doing most of the training on him. Geode was the most laid back sweet mustang out of the 4. Rebecca put about 12 rides on him and he did great!

Holiday (red roan appy) holiday has been the slowest to come around. He's still very jumpy and can still be pretty afraid of humans. But he's made a lot of progress and will let me lead him, lunge him, pick up all 4 feet and even let me trim his hooves. He's had a ba****ck pad on and much more. He even decided to jump out of the round pen yesterday 😂 Holiday should be heading to his new home next week.
