Over the years, we have produced many videos about our training process. If you want to experience the drama of taking a wild horse to tameness or to saddle, here is your guide.
Belle Parker, the wildest USFS mustang, was trained by Maria Loper. Belle is challenged by a deep resounding fear of humans, uncontrolled distraction in the training environment, and impending foal birth.
Amelia is about some of the training of an older jenny who doesn't trust humans. This covers Tasks 13 -16.
Neesch'ii'' the Navajo Pony is about a young mare who came to us fearful of being haltered. She was challenging.
Merlin the Mule was trained by Veronica Moore. His problems stem, at root, to the fact that his mom thought he looked weird, so he had the same insecurity that most mules have. His owner sent him to us because of his tendency to bolt.
Marvel the Mesa Verde Mustang is about a laid back mustang that came to us one winter. His challenges were motivating him to move with low pressure. This series contains both taming and saddle training tasks.
