[quote=WyoWhisper] Now matter where ya pointed him... he'd go straight up a cliff and never break stride or slow down. [/quote

That is what I liked about our little one, he would go anywhere.

I would have like to have used him to sort cattle, as he had a bit of a turn to him, but never got the chance as someone was always hunting on him.

I am curious about the Mustangs; we only had one come through the place and it was a more of a pet. A worthless pet at that. Hammerhead, long back, no give at all to the pasterns, etc. Could kick and bite though. But I knew folks who had some fine stock from the govt programs, thats a nice looking one in the photo. Are mustangs like wives, either very good or very bad?

Westernaires is very pleased with the Mustangs in their string. �These horses are gentle, eager to please, they like people and require less veterinary attention than other breeds of horses,� said Myrna Crawford, Westernaires� head wrangler. �Mustangs require less veterinary attention because they have strong legs, big feet and the will to survive.�
