Desert Horses

Welcome to my horse blog, Desert Horses. We live in the desert southwest, near Palm Springs, CA, but board our horses up in our local mountains where it is cooler in the summer. I have 3 horses, all rescues. Here is the ranch up the mountains where the horses stay.

Daddy was an appy and Momma is a dun!






















Oh, my! Shiloh Horse Rescue is quite an experience! We are still on the road and this morning we are driving through Red Rock Canyon, then through the Mojave National Preserve, then home. I'll have to go to school tomorrow and REST!!! But, I did get to see BB and his mom, Nevada, at Shiloh before the clinic started. If you don't know their story...the mom, Nevada, was pregnant and at the Fallon feedlot when Shiloh went there one time. Nevada was rescued and brought back to Shiloh to give birth to little BB. Isn't he just the cutest little thing? And, he is curious and friendly and he quietly watched the goings-on in the arena yesterday right next to him! Just look at all his spots! Mom is very quiet and calm and allowed me to handle BB, who was very curious about my camera! I enjoyed the clinic and learned some important things which I can't wait to try out on the mustangs. And, 9 people brought their horses there to the clinic, so it was good to see how others interacted with their horses. Anyway, here are some pics of BB and Nevada from yesterday. It was a beautiful, crisp, and clear day at Shiloh, with a little wind. However, next time I'll be sure to bring a portable chair and a bandana for my neck as there wasn't any shade out by the arena! I noticed other auditors brought chairs, bandanas, and plenty of sunscreen! I had my sunscreen on, but I could have used a chair!
