  Rusty came from the Luverne auction Sept 5, 2009. Well-trained and started as a roper.  

RUSTY (II)
15.2 hh • 1,200 lbs
Sorrel Quarter Horse gelding. Trained on poles and barrels. Had been abused and can be spooky. Good all-around horse who has a lot to live up to ... had my other Rusty 21.5 years!
Rusty has been exposed to Cowboy Mounted Shooting!

The first Rusty - my first horse at 10 years old.

Rusty was definitely in his element at Cowboy Mounted Shooting ... I was so impressed with his work ethic! Rusty settling in ... his personality is showing day by day. Built like a tank, he is a fun ride though a little spooky. I wasn't looking for a solid sorrel, but he stole my heart!
Rusty has turned out to be an excellent all-around horse. While somewhat spooky when trail riding solo, he knows an arena means business! I expected him to freak at Cowboy Mounted Shooting, but he barely flicked an ear. When I found him at the sale, as usual, I hadn't gone to buy a thing ... but if I was going buy, I was looking for a gaited trail horse or at least something flashy like a palomino or buckskin. Instead I came home with a sorrel quarter horse ... and I haven't regretted it a bit!
