Jr. Wrangler Class #5

MUDDY!!! That's all I have to say about wrangling. We learned about the Divisions of Westernaires and the Red Team horses. We all got individual horses today so that was kind of nice. I got Dusty #44. She was special for the first half. She stood great for grooming minus bucking at the other horses. When we got to the feet. She would try to bite me on the front left. Once I finally got that one I went for the back hoof. She ended up kicking me. I moved out of the way fast enough she didn't hit me very hard so I was fine. Probably won't even bruise :(  Anyway so they brought up a retired horse named Dick. Apparently that is Dusty's boyfriend. It was like she was a whole different horse. She was great. Didn't like the cinch very much but was an angel for bridling! I learned how to do shorties and brushed her mane and tail. Then was horse ID. After that we learned how the test next week will work. I feel pretty prepared for it. That was all! Now to clean all the mud out of my pants. Eeekk!!!!
