Ringo The Mustang

The first day in the round corral Ringo was introduced to the lariat as an extension of Jim's arm.
The fragile Mustang started to except a little direction while working on the end of the rope, this ultimately resulted in powerful steps towards relaxation and trust.

Jim deeply feels trust needs to come first so relaxation can fallow.

The preparatory work from the first day ultimately lead to a successful introduction to the halter and saddle the next day.

Day four Jim had developed enough of a relationship that he was able to ride Ringo.
Like brand new friends they had all the right elements, Ringo and Jim moved through the gaits with confidence.

Onlookers from the side of the round corral where both moved and inspired that Jim and his new Mustang friend were moving forward with equal amounts of trust and belief in each other!
