My studly Gambler. 🙂↔️🔥
I don’t even know if I have the words to describe how this c**t makes me feel. I’m SO dang proud of him.
And no… I still haven’t personally stepped on him yet. 🤣 Jake says he’s making sure he’s perfect before Mama gets on. I’m not arguing with that plan. 😂
But watching what Gambler has accomplished and how he’s handled everything thrown at him over just the last 30 days… WOOOWEEEE. 😍
He’s ventured off property, ridden down the highway and to the creek nearby — and came home with an A+ report card. He continues to grow and build confidence every ride in the arena. He’s ridden around in nothing but a halter, helped gather horses that decided they suddenly didn’t want to be caught 🤦♀️😂, and has taken every new experience in stride.
The list just keeps growing.
We aren’t in a rush with this one. We’re letting him learn, gain confidence and become the kind of horse we know he can be. Watching that process happen right in front of us has been pretty damn special.
Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it. I just LOVE this horse. 🥹🩵
