Team Penning
"Thanks to Cathie for being brave enough to invite Kierstyn
and Risky Cathie's help and patience was invaluable. Thanks
Cathie for riding Risky in first to introduce him to his
fellow cows, and put Kier's mind at ease. Also a HUGE thanks
for not being about winning, but learning and having fun.
Although Cathie did an amazing job at getting in there and
moving the cows. Kier and Risk fell a little short of being
really helpful for their first time out. They had a
fantastic time and I'm sure will want to try it in the
future."

"Thanks Ann Marie, I had a great time. I wanted to ride
Risky in first to get a feel of what he would do, before we
let Kierstyn ride. He did very well since he had never been
in the same pen with a cow, prior to that day. That's the
same way I introduced Cachina two years ago. We had not been
penning since. Although I would recommend one actually
introduce their horse to cattle before competing, these guys
took it in stride, we didn't ask any more than they were
willing to give us. Both of our horses were sporting their
brand new Dr. Cook biltess bridles. Risky had the dark brown
western, and Cachina had her brand new black western
bridle!"
