(This is the horse from Joyce's infamous "rescue" down in Alabama.)
Dusty was adopted in Oct 96 her HMA was Silver Peak NV 623. She was foaled in 1987.
The people that adopted her were unable to gentle her for various reasons &
Joyce acquired her on Nov 4 1998. While in transit, people contacted Joyce &
said she was unredeemable & not worth trying. Joyce says, "Boy am I glad I didnt give up!!"
Dusty is a bit timid & very stubborn, but has the softest eyes & has NEVER made an
attempt to be mean or aggressive. Dusty is now gentled & has stolen the
hearts of Joyce's children. Joyce says she's simply not as young as she used to be & doesn't have
time to start her under saddle so on July 17th Dusty went to a trainer (a
wonderful patient man that she knows & trusts.) We'll look for more progress reports
concerning Dusty.
