Last Ride on Deck

Put my last ride on Deck yesterday (1/4/10) just before his new buyer hauled him to the ranch where he will grow and develop into what I'm sure will be a fine working horse. I really hated to part with him as we had developed a bond I've seldom experienced with a horse. But he needs to go to the next level which I have neither the time nor the talent to make happen. His new owner will work out the "colt kinks" and by spring he'll be ready to go herd cattle in Burns, OR and at the next BLM Mustang roundup in the Steens Mountain range he should be able to help gather horses in for adoption. Short of family and my profession getting Deck from birth here on the ranch to being a quiet rider is one of the most satisfying things I've ever done. I'll miss the big guy.

Decks First Ride



Ruthie rode Deck for his first ride. I kept the lead rope on him for safety reasons but all went well and next time Ruthie will ride with no lead. Click on the attached to see a little of the ride. The entire ride was much longer with the horse backing, as well as turning left and right. He's just 2 yrs old so he's off to a very good start
