✨ Appreciation post for Wrangler and all the people in my corner who help me care for him! ✨
Wrangler isn’t just another horse in the barn—he’s a testament to grit, patience, and the kind of partnership that only comes from going through the ups and downs together. Managing a horse with PSSM1 isn’t always easy. It’s a genetic muscle disorder that affects how they store and use sugar, which can lead to stiffness, soreness, and muscle issues if not carefully managed. It means every part of his care matters.
Day to day, it’s all about the details and the weather—his feed program, schedule, workload, and added support like chiropractic care, ozone, accuscope, and other therapies to keep him feeling his best.
But through it all, Wrangler shows up. He works, he tries, and he gives everything he has. That’s what makes me so grateful. There were times things could’ve gone a different direction, where using him might not have been possible—but here we are, still hitching him up, still counting on him, still building something great together.
He’s made me a better horseman—teaching me patience, attention, and how to truly listen. And the truth is, he’s worth it all.
Thanks for all the miles, memories, and heart, buddy. Here’s to many more. 🤍
