One Man, One Horse- A Mustang Story

Posted in Horses for the horse crazy at 3:12 pm by petArtist Cmoses

One Man, One Horse, A Mustang Story, a Canadian production, filmed in
Alberta and British Columbia, is an inspiring story. This online series
follows a frightened little mustang that was rounded up by helicopter,
separated from her herd mates, penned up in a metal trailer and shipped to
Canada. The horses that were not lucky enough to find an owner that day
were destined for an uncertain future, including slaughter.

Matthew Ford rescued this frightened mustang from a horse sale in Alberta,
Canada. Being a novice rider, it didn’t take Matt long to discover that he
had gotten himself in way over his head. Matt contacted natural horseman,
Jay O’Jay, to help gentle this wild horse.

“This was Matt’s horse, and to him it was imperative that he be involved in
each and every step. He was the one who wanted to ride this horse for the
very first time,” quoted Jay O’Jay. “This made it even more challenging”.
