Taz's 1st Parade
We did it. Kirstin's & Taz's first parade together. It was amazing. Taz had 1 freak out moment and that was when the Calvary went by. Seriously, the Calvary from Ft Sam Houston went trotting by-about 20 or so and Taz acted like he wanted to join them. Problem was Kirstin wasn't on his back yet. We had just unloaded him and he was still taking in all of the new sites and sounds. After that he settled in very nicely and behaved like a perfect gentleman. Had people coming up to him all morning long and he was just taking in all of the attention. Even had one lady recognize Kirstin from the previous weeks newspaper article. We were successful in getting the Mustang plug in at the announcing stand and we told everyone that came up to him about his recent change in status from wild to willing and to say the least they were amazed.
Taz makes a beautiful ambassador for the Mustangs and the Extreme Makeover, doesn't he? 100 days or so of training, 1st parade ever and I can't think of any other horse that I would let my daughter ride . That is how comfortable I am with Kirstin riding Taz. He is just that amazing! Careen did a fantastic job training this wonderful animal.
