A journal of my participation in the 2016 Idaho Extreme Mustang Makeover from April through July. Selected trainers' skills will be put to the test as we tame a wild mustang in roughly 100 days and show off our work at the final competition at Idaho Horse Park in Nampa, ID on July 29th & 30th, 2016.

First Trim
Rooster had his first visit from the farrier today and he handled it like a champ. The farrier was really impressed. The only thing that really worried Rooster at first the was the sound and feeling of the rasp. After a couple hooves, he didn't mind it at all. Nice to have a good trim on those feet, finally - they were getting a bit long!
