| On
approximately May 15, 2003, I took 3 mustangs to Rusty to be trained. These
horses had come off the range in February and were part of the Dann Sisters
herd. They had never been handled other than when we gelded the 2 stallions.
At that time we wormed them and put halters on them. We did a little handling
with them, but basically they were still wild.
Rusty did a wonderful job, we picked these horses up on July 26, 2003. Took them home and rode them. One of the owners is a unexperienced rider and he rode his horse with little problem. I use to train A system AQHA and Appaloosa horses and was very impressed. The other two were wonderful. The gelding which will be a full fledge ranch horse, ridden by all the hands, is great. He is just like a hand raised horse. My mare, who was the wildest, is wonderful. I just took her on a 20 mile ride pushing over 100 cows and calves by myself. She did everything I asked with no problems. Due to Rusty's changing living arrangements I couldn't take the three remaining mustangs to her, but I would in a heartbeat if it were possible. My boss who has been a Nevada Rancher for 70 years is also very impressed with the horses, and would also like to send her more if it were possible. Thank you for a excellent job done Rusty, I will
treasure Angel all the more, thanks to you. |
