The Wild Woman - Shelby

Shelby is a registered Silver King from Nevada - born in the wild! 

 She was rounded up in 2018 as a foal, estimated to have been born in 2017. Shelby still carries the branding number on her neck from this. 

 In order to obtain a wild mustangs title, they have to be placed in a safe and secure home, be approved by the BLM (Bureau of Land Management) and be required to provide vet and farrier records and frequent visits from her assigned BLM officer. Before us, sadly, Shelby had not stayed at one place long enough to get a title.

In May of 2022 when we went to pick her up to bring her home, we could not even get close to her. She had reverted back to her wild ways. Since then, Shelby has made so much progress with constant love and attention. She now loves to be brushed and loved on and loves her back and booty scratches!! 

 The first picture was taken when we picked her up in May 2021. You can see the difference in her coat and color. It’s amazing what a good diet and nutrition can do!! She has completely changed colors from a mustard colored horse to a healthy rich brown coat!!!

Shelby is one beautiful girl and I’d have to say that she is extremely happy here with her herd.
