This movie follows several trainer/horse pairs as they participate in the Wild Horse Makeover competition. It starts with them getting assigned a wild mustang and follows them as they work with the horse over 100 days, taking the wild horses from being very wary/terrified of humans to being rideable and even doing tricks.
Its very interesting to watch the different human/horse interactions as they get used to each other. Lots of great characters in this movie. If you have any interest in human - animal interactions, horse or otherwise, I'd really recommend this movie. It features trainers/riders from several areas of the U.S. including several from Arizona.
Here's the trailer: ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VYr0YozIcoQ )
I put the movie in my Netflix queue.
ReplyDeleteI think the DVD is going to release in early December... I think you will like it.
DeleteThis is great. If I don't get to check it out, I'll be hoping it will pop up on Netflix or Hulu Plus. I used to horseback ride years ago.....when it gets cooler, I may do some more:)
ReplyDeleteI think the last time I was on a horse was maybe around the 6th or 7th grade. I took horseback riding lessons when I was very young up in Prescott.
DeleteAs a cacti lover I could only love this shot. It's fantastic!
ReplyDeleteIt would certainly be an interesting perspective to do some of the same trails we all hike on from perhaps 4 feet higher.
