Alyssa and Jude Teens and Oregon Mustang Challenge 2022 Hi, my name is Alyssa and I’m a trainer in the Teens and Oregon Mustang Challenge. My Mustang is a 3 year old Palomino Butte gelding, named Jude.

Follow our journey together, as he will be available for adoption on Sept. 4th.

Big thank you to Jenn Koenig for these amazing photos from the competition!

Jude’s and I trail course and freestyle! We weren’t on the correct lead going right but at least he cantered, I went into it expecting not to get a canter at all as that’s something we’ve struggled with... I can’t wait to continue working him as I can officially call him mine, but right now I think we both need a well deserved break!

Competition weekend is officially over, I had a blast and Jude absolutely blew me away! I knew he was a stud but we won first in adult novice body conditioning, along with first in the Wilco purina challenge for 2+ years olds, and 2nd overall in those who entered in the purina challenge! We definitely have a lot to improve on but I’m pretty proud of Jude as we ended up getting 6th out of 15! I wish I could take all the credit but Jude has always been such a calm chill horse and I’m grateful to officially call him mine!

Jude is all bathed and ready to go! Excuse my braiding skills, I’m not the best, but I love how his highlights show up in the braids. I’m excited to see everyone at the competition, I can’t wait to meet everyone and their mustangs and watch them compete!

Jude just eating breakfast with no idea about what’s happening this weekend😬. Of course being the procrastinator I am, I waited until today to pack and give him a bath, luckily packing went relatively quickly and now I’m just waiting for it to heat up a little bit before I give him a bath.

Jude and I conquered the Historic Columbia River Highway! Took our very first outing on the main road, and he did great! It was just around the block but he walked quietly when cars zoomed past or dogs charged to the edge of their properties barking, wasn’t bothered at all! He was also by himself without any other horses!

Worming Jude

Overall I was more nervous than he was😂… first time standing on Jude

11/08/2022

Jude also did great when we went on a little trail ride even with a loose horse and the other horses trotting ahead he kept his cool and listened instead of trying to bolt back to the herd… He did have to get a couple reminders but over all he did fantastic!

Did something new today, Breezy the 30year old appy mare in the background decided to follow Jude and I into the roundpen before I had a chance to close it, and instead of chasing her out I decided to just work around her. Jude did great listening to me and not getting worked up by the other horse even lunged him without the halter on and with Breezy trotting in the opposite direction he listened to just me instead of trying to follow his 30 year old girlfriend😂

I went into this challenge with the full expectation to sell this horse and be done with horses in general… Before this competition I was beginning to fall out of love with horses and this was supposed to be my last hurrah. I am so incredibly thankful that God sent me Jude because he renewed my love for horses and it’s stronger than ever!  Jude has allowed me to become so much more confident in myself and my horsemanship and I have completely fallen in love with him.  because of this I have decided to keep Jude and he is no longer on the market… I hoped to announce it sooner but I’ve been trying to figure out my financial situation to be 100% sure I could give him the life he deserves. Thank you everyone for the support and the kind words…. I’m sorry but Jude is NOT FOR SALE!

Not great but he’s definitely getting better at side passing I barely have to touch him!

Jude and I had a busy week at camp, so sorry for not posting much, but it was also very good for him! He went on his first trail ride, he went onto the beach, learned how to load onto a flatbed trailer and how to back out of a trailer along with bowing! Jude got exposed to loud sirens, large crowds, elk, deer, loud/low flying planes and handled it all like a champ! Jude is one special horse!

Surfer boy Jude gets his first outing on the beach… He REALLY wanted to roll😂

First time for Jude being trailered with other horses and being tied in the trailer! Did mission impossible and fit three horses in a two horse trailer, featuring Jude’s nose in the front!

Jude had his first person other than me ride him and he did great! Thank you Mackenna Morey for helping me work on some of Jude‘s laziness and getting him more forward!

Night time shenanigans with Jude aka how many different ways can I sit on Jude… Honestly if you would’ve told me I would be doing this on a mustang just out of the wild without anything on not even a halter and lead rope I would’ve thought you were crazy but Jude is such a cool horse!

Introducing the bit for the second time ever, the first time he didn’t stop chewing on it but by the end of a groundwork session this morning, he was carrying it relatively nicely!

15/07/2022

Jude and I got our first trot not connected to a leadrope, and our first canter ever!

Jude got trimmed for the first time! He stood pretty solidly, he did try to move occasionally but overall he did really well! He was a saint for dealing with me while I was being taught how to trim. No stress or explosions, but I also had a pretty good farrier helping me!

01/07/2022

Second ride!  we don’t have much forward movement yet but it’s better than our first ride, our first ride consisted of backwards moving circles😂

Swung a leg over Jude for the first time last night from the ground, I was pretty nervous but he stood like a champ other than stomping at flies, which didn’t help my heart rate but at least he was unbothered by me. Only mishap of the night was one of the times I tried to step up in the stirrup, the whole saddle slid, since he doesn’t have any withers. He let me undo the cinches and adjust everything without a fuss!

Jude’s first beer😂

23/06/2022

First time using poles and he acted like it was no big deal!
