Episode #91 The Summer of the Mustang: From Numbers to Nicknames

Season #3

This summer, my daughter Tegan and I are taking on a new adventure: training a wild mustang yearling through Wild Rose Mustang Advocacy Group.

Before we've even been matched with our horse, we've had the opportunity to spend time caring for and observing the 10 yearlings that recently arrived from Devil's Garden, California. In this episode, we're sharing our first impressions of the herd, the personalities that are already emerging, and the horses that have captured our attention.

We talk about:

• What it was like watching the mustangs come off the trailer for the first time

• How horses establish a pecking order and what we are learning by observing herd dynamics

• The subtle body language horses use to communicate

• Why trust, awareness, and presence matter when working with wild horses

• Our favorite yearlings and which horses we're hoping to be matched with

• What it's like for an 11-year-old to step into a herd of young mustangs

• The lessons these horses are already teaching us before training even begins

This episode is part of our Summer of the Mustang series, where we'll be documenting the entire journey from meeting our horse to the final Mustang Challenge showcase.

If you love horses, wild mustangs, animal behavior, or simply hearing stories about growth, connection, and learning something new alongside your kids, you'll enjoy this conversation.
