In 2021, I was accepted into my (Sierra’s) very first MYWY Mustang Madness Competition with a beautiful black yearling.
She was from the Paisley Desert Herd so naturally I named her “Paisley”. She was the sweetest, easiest and most lazy yearling I have ever trained. Her all time favorite thing was napping…motivating her to work turned out to be quite the challenge
I look back on this year fondly, I was just 16yrs old and seemed to have no responsibilities. I spent every single day with Paisley, perfecting each maneuver and designing a show stopping freestyle. I immersed myself in learning advanced ground work and taught her how to side pass towards, sit like a dog, push a big ball, self load into a trailer, ground drive and so many other fun things!
When the competition rolled around Paisley made my first time in the Mustang Training competition arena one to remember as she exceeded expectations at every corner, securing a 
place finish
But that was just the beginning of Paisley’s adventures! At the conclusion of the competition, Paisley, was adopted by Samantha Nicks and moved all the way to Montana! Paisley, now known as, Smoke is all grown up and doing fantastic as a riding horse working cattle and living the life as an all around ranch horse!
