Kirstin was brought back into the arena. She demostrated Remy's skills, sidepassing, backing, trotting at a lead, stopping, turning. Remy does it all very well, she just didn't do well for the show. Finally a nice lady raised her hand and took Remy. At least Kirstin knows that Remy is going to a good home. She was able to speak with the new owner briefly and was assured that she will be well loved and taken care of. Goodbyes are always the hardest part of these shows. Many asked why we didn't want to take this horse home. Simple we already own 6 other horses and the reason Kirstin does the makeovers is not to get a cheap horse, but to hopefully introduce people to what she already knows; that the Mustang is a wonderful horse and partner.

I'm just wondering but is Kirstin thinking about doing the Extreme Mustang Makeover next year? It is really cool to see her adventures with these horses.
Next year Kirstin will be starting college which will not leave much time for training Mustangs. She will continue to train the ones that she has at home(5 to date). One of those is her yearling; Patriot, from 2010. She is starting him under saddle so updates will continue to be posted. We love our Mustangs and want the world to know how wonderful they are!
My daughter wants to do this. Can you suggest some resources or a site where other families doin this exchange advice? Bilars2@gmail.com
Any direct encouragement would really be appreciated. We've raised one colt from birth, but not a mustang
