Meet-Smokin Gold Too- barn name: GUS
We purchased Gus from our good friend and partner Ron Fausett. We actually went up to Castle Dale Utah to purchase his full brother "Fausett". Ron said he had a coming 2 year old full brother that was turned out in a huge pasture outside of town. We took a drive and went to look for him, but we couldn't find him. So we told Ron we will take him site unseen. Especially if he looked like his brother. When I pulled up to pick him
up a few weeks later, my jaw hit the ground!! I was like, that can't be him!! He is tiny... This colt looked like a tiny scrawny pony.
I can't imagine our life without this little pony horse. He has been such a huge part of my success over the past few years. He has a huge heart and so much try. He is still short but he is muscled up and gorgeous. Wylee started him from his first ride in the round pen, to gathering cattle on the ranch to his first time only in the barrel pen. She made a fabulous horse that I feel blessed to compete on.
