This is a common accusation I get, so thought it might be helpful to share more for those who are genuinely curious.

I think what you do is wonderful! I'm a veterinary nurse, and I just want to say a huge, heartfelt thank you for everything that you do for these wild mustangs. Unfortunately, some people are ignorant, and rather than doing a little research and finding out the facts, they assume they know the facts and go spreading their vitriol and misinformation all over social media!! It's not hard to do a little homework, and maybe the "Professionally Offended" should take a moment to educate themselves before jumping to conclusions!! I think what you're doing is fantastic, and you should be commended for all the amazing work you do with these wild mustangs. Can't wait to see what you decide to name her! She's gorgeous! Bless her! I'm so pleased she's in such safe hands with you! I'm looking forward to seeing her flourish under your care! From one animal lover to another, I just want to say another big thank you! 🙏 Wishing you and Black Mare all the best! Much love, from Wales, UK 💜🐎💜
💯 so interested I just stumbled on your page I heard of wild mustangs but never knew the half of it, I love what you are doing! I can't wait to see what happens! Thank so much please educate us!
I’m a former equine nutritionist & from looking at her, I’d say she’s in FANTASTIC shape. What a topline. She’s an absolute GEM. Well done, you! I’ve subscribed & I’m looking forward to her growth & her new name.
Not a nutritionist but my thoughts as well. Tucked up belly looks dramatic but she has a really nice amount of weight over her ribs and hips. Either an easy keeper or she's had a good diet for a long time.
I also adopted a black mustang from the Gochute region of Nevada. She was super quick to tame. She looked a lot like yours! We named her Garnet, because we used to dig garnets in Nevada and they were black too. We had another horse named Jasper, so following the gem/rock theme.
she reminds me of my black mustang I adopted(shady). I'm new to horses, I'm 54 yr. old. I rode a horse once when I was around 28. so yeah, I was scared sh1t-less😬. I thought she was going to kill me. I'm not a trainer by no stretch of the imagination. I thought I may have bit off more than I can chew. oh and did I say I was scared sh1tless🤔.A year and a half later and I'm finally going to put a saddle on her. I have no regrets. she was gentled on her time. NO ropes, no abuse whatsoever. Just her time. she's so sweet and gentle now and I wouldn't change a thing.
She is so beautiful! If you haven't already got a name for her could you call her Raven, Starling or Corvus (raven in latin)? To keep the running theme of the bird names :) Edit: Dont wanna be one of those people but tysm for all the likes!!
@@TheProjectEquestrian for a name I think "Flicka" as in "Flicka, the brown mustang" a great movie about a dark brown/black mustang, hope you've seen it :)
I like "raven" as well as the birds but I think this "black mare" has something more majestic on her, more noble.... like a BLACK DIAMOND - including that she is yet uncut and a bit rough around her edges (because of the travel)... she has that sparkle in her eyes 😍🥰
Have you thought about using the Shoshoni language to find a name for her? Kah'-mah or Kah'-mo means jack rabbit, Ai'wa means fawn. She's got a very cool vibe about her.
She is so beautiful!! I love mustangs, horses in general really, but still. I know she has a white sock, but I think you could always call her midnight, if you haven't named her yet, especially since I can see having a beautiful black coat. Once you get her cleaned up and healthy. 😍
New England, I'm in CT! I've never actually seen a mustang at any of the barns I've been to out here, I didn't really think people outside the midwest/west bought them. Maybe you'll be a trend-setter and there will be tons of mustangs out here in a few years haha. Good luck with your girl, she's really beautiful I hope she adjusts well.
Hey Neighbor! haha I was actually really surprised how many people in New England have mustangs...ok, not a lot, but they are here! lol But yea my first time seeing a mustang was when I went to a mustang makeover a while back. I sure hope we do continue to get more! It would be nice if we had a closer location to pick up at!
Pretty girl. That's an awful long journey to take alone in a trailer. Check for ulcers too - lack of food, dehydration & stress can create ulcers. Glad she's finally home & senses safety. I like India, like 'India Ink' for a black/dark horse with the nickname of Indie. Good luck with her.
I live in Carson City and have seen many of these wonderful Mustangs “in the wild”…they are so beautiful! I never tire of seeing them. Congratulations! Hope you two have a wonderful bond!😊
I’d have let her lay up a couple days in the middle of that trip to rehydrate, eat, and get some rest and some exercise. A trip that long can produce shipping fever which can be lethal.
@@TheProjectEquestrian He loves to please, learn and is very patient yet very stubborn at time. All around I couldn't ask for a better mustang though(: I hope your mare is everything you want and more in a mustang 🐎
I Am A New Subscriber and I admire Your Passion I love horses of all kinds but especially mustangs so God bless you and your missions to come and I would love to get all updates God bless
lovely girl! good for you, I hope it keeps going well for you and this lovely girl! You said you can tell she's already sweet, you sense a good about her! So maybe a name something like Aura or Caoimhe (Keeva) which means kind & sweet in Irish!
Thank you Britta for letting us meet your newest member to the family, she's a "black mare" beauty, (see what I done there)!😆 She is wonderful, enjoy my friend, please give her loving from me, thank you! ❤ 🐎 🤗 In fact, please give all your babes my love, Jaeger, Merlin, kitty, doggie, and please tell Tess hello, thank you so much! Have a wonderful day sweetheart! Your friend, Didi 👵 🖐 ❤🐕 🐾 ❤🐱 🐈 ❤🐎
@@TheProjectEquestrian Oh thank you my dear friend, I was hoping that you would! 🤗 Have you seen Tess lately? When you do, would you please tell her hello for me, she is so very nice, thank you sweetheart! 🤗 How is " black mare" doing honey? Oh my she is definitely gorgeous! Hello Jaeger, hello Merlin, hello chickies, hello kitty and hello doggie! I'am so proud of you Britta! 😇
@@TheProjectEquestrian Oh no! I too will miss her, I have only seen Tess once, but, that was all I needed to know that she is super nice and super friendly! Oh sorry my friend, please tell her hello and goodbye for me, you know Britta, it never fails, when I meet someone that I really like, they always move away! So, honey, I'am telling you Britta, DON'T LEAVE!! 😅😂😆😉
Being from Sweden, I would like to know why wild horses are sold. Are there too many of them? I also wonder how they are handled during such a long transport? It must be super traumatic for a wild horse to experience this. Are they given any sedatives or something?
Perfect name will be Vicky. Or Twister. She loves to move and these Names are "fast". Hope You will have only success and good moments with her 👁️👅👁️❤️🐴
She likely was so anxious and so unfamiliar with people that even being offered water/food she may not have taken it from people if they were remotely close in proximity to the food/water or simply being in a trailer. Long trips dehydrate regular horses who can be led off the trailer and moved around or parked w/ a small fence in a park overnight to stretch. She really didn't have that option. She is a more refined build than many I have seen come out of Devils' Garden and other areas where they can be fairly short and stocky. I guess we will see when she has some weight on her.
So just to be clear, after you train a mustang, you don't get to keep it? (not asking this 'cause I want one - not yet ready and live on almost the other side of the world.)
If black bear is what you initially thought of why change her name? I like and support it. Every name doesn't have to be creative or have a special story
Omg I'm so excited! This has made my day! Eek I'm very excited right now!! Edit: I have now watched the video and wow she is georgious, she seems pretty calm and seems to have a kind eye. I can't wait to see u start training with her and see her temperament.
Love her long face. She looks like the Morgan filly my grandfather had . She is absolutely beautiful and she has a beautiful build to her . She is going to be amazing when she fills out . Her muscle lines are really amazing. Can't wait to see her fill out and grow. She is majestic
Bless your kind heart Britta💛 It's great that you are working so hard to give these poor babies a decent, caring home. I've been a Wild Mustang advocate for many years, and there couldn't be a sadder story than the plight of most of these horses. I don't know if you've researched where they are coming from, but it's truly tragic what the Feds have done, and are presently doing to decimate the herds, and the BLM is very corrupt. The government round ups by helicopter are very cruel, and separate the the family groups, often resulting in many casualties with foals being run to death, and terrific injuries among them all. The survivors are further traumatized being hauled all over the place, warehoused in dry cattle lots, and their spirits are broken. They ALL have severe PTSD and need so much TLC & understanding. They are not like domesticated horses at all, it's in the centuries of being wild & self reliant hardwired into the genes. I found it interesting that you got DNA reports...many of the core herds are descended from the Spanish horses from the Conquistadors hundreds of years ago. They have the genetics of the Lusitano & Andalusian breeds very often, depending on the areas they are coming from. These horses are still bred in Spain. Your Miss Sparrow has the distinctive Lusitano almond shaped eyes... check out the many RUclips vids on them. The American Wild Horse Campaign is a good source to learn more about what really happens to our Wild Mustangs, should anyone want more info & resources, and especially check out the work of LAURA LEIGH at WILD HORSE EDUCATION (wild horseeducation.org)...her foundation is in Nevada, and it is a real eye opener! Thank you for being such a beautiful human being, Britta, and for saving lives that matter!

You are a seat, and you are doing amazing work! I hope you attract tremendous support!
Thank you for everything you do. I can only hope to be like you one day! 💙
I’m a former equine nutritionist & from looking at her, I’d say she’s in FANTASTIC shape. What a topline. She’s an absolute GEM. Well done, you! I’ve subscribed & I’m looking forward to her growth & her new name.
Not a nutritionist but my thoughts as well. Tucked up belly looks dramatic but she has a really nice amount of weight over her ribs and hips. Either an easy keeper or she's had a good diet for a long time.
For a wiry mustang she's creme of the crop! Once she fills out she will look like a quarter horse.
I also adopted a black mustang from the Gochute region of Nevada. She was super quick to tame. She looked a lot like yours! We named her Garnet, because we used to dig garnets in Nevada and they were black too. We had another horse named Jasper, so following the gem/rock theme.
How lovely!!
Congratulations!! Lovey young horse- I look forward to watching her blossom under your care.❤
Thankyou❤❤
she reminds me of my black mustang I adopted(shady). I'm new to horses, I'm 54 yr. old. I rode a horse once when I was around 28. so yeah, I was scared sh1t-less😬. I thought she was going to kill me. I'm not a trainer by no stretch of the imagination. I thought I may have bit off more than I can chew. oh and did I say I was scared sh1tless🤔.A year and a half later and I'm finally going to put a saddle on her. I have no regrets. she was gentled on her time. NO ropes, no abuse whatsoever. Just her time. she's so sweet and gentle now and I wouldn't change a thing.
I'm glad she has falling into a good situation. My heart goes out to her her world so different now. Since she is from Nevada I would call her Reno.
I know right - in the course of a year her life has flipped upside down.
I just have to let you know, that out of all of the names that were suggested for her horse, the one you suggested was definitely The Best Name RENO.
Oh MY GOSH I AM ALREADY IN LOVE WITH HER SHE LOOKS SO SWEET CANT WAIT TO SEE TRAINING VIDEOS!!!!😁😁😊
Thank you! ☺☺
@@TheProjectEquestrian no problem I love your videos anyway
She is so beautiful! If you haven't already got a name for her could you call her Raven, Starling or Corvus (raven in latin)? To keep the running theme of the bird names :)
Edit: Dont wanna be one of those people but tysm for all the likes!!
Great name ideas!😄❤
@@TheProjectEquestrian for a name I think "Flicka" as in "Flicka, the brown mustang" a great movie about a dark brown/black mustang, hope you've seen it :)
In my language, Swedish, Flicka means girl btw. Cute.
@@tamousha samma här :)
Starling sounds good. She seems sweet but flighty like a bird, and has the dark coat
I like "raven" as well as the birds but I think this "black mare" has something more majestic on her, more noble.... like a BLACK DIAMOND - including that she is yet uncut and a bit rough around her edges (because of the travel)... she has that sparkle in her eyes 😍🥰
Have you thought about using the Shoshoni language to find a name for her? Kah'-mah or Kah'-mo means jack rabbit, Ai'wa means fawn. She's got a very cool vibe about her.
Cool idea. I got curious and looked up the Goshute tribe. Appears they are one of the largest groups of Shoshoni speakers.
ohhh, that's great idea!
Shoshoni sounds nice. Call her Shoshoni!
She gives me Ivana (Johanna) vibes
@@lucykelly7152 yes completely agree!!
My heart just warmed so much hearing you do this to help others to be able to adopt mustangs.

i love mustang their my favorite horse breed
Beautiful horse
I broke a mustang when I was 14 bareback it was amazing ❤
She is a beautifull horse
How would one get ahold of this hauling agency, asking for a friend 😁

Neat!!
Woahh! Shes Pretty!
Perfect name will be Vicky. Or Twister. She loves to move and these Names are "fast". Hope You will have only success and good moments with her 👁️👅👁️❤️🐴
Omg. Vermont. I just moved to Maryland from Vermont. Where in Vermont?
Burlington I believe.
If I were ever able to do a mustang taming I wouldn't want to adopt them out after.
She likely was so anxious and so unfamiliar with people that even being offered water/food she may not have taken it from people if they were remotely close in proximity to the food/water or simply being in a trailer. Long trips dehydrate regular horses who can be led off the trailer and moved around or parked w/ a small fence in a park overnight to stretch. She really didn't have that option. She is a more refined build than many I have seen come out of Devils' Garden and other areas where they can be fairly short and stocky. I guess we will see when she has some weight on her.
Well said! You should have done my voiceover 🤪and she’s from Goshute, I was just commented out different she was from my DGs🙂
❤❤❤
She’s so cute
Shheeee is beautiful
question. are mustangs like the huskies of horse world?
How is there no snow there?
So you will not Keep her ? I love her Colors when the Sun hits her. Will you do any training? I will watch more.
So just to be clear, after you train a mustang, you don't get to keep it? (not asking this 'cause I want one - not yet ready and live on almost the other side of the world.)
I'm basically a transition step for them as they adjust to domesticated life. Someday, I'll get my own mustang to keep, hopefully!
@@TheProjectEquestrian oh, that makes sense. :)
Black rose is a cute name for her
She is so cute 0:08

No super imaginative, but she is a Black Beauty!!
You live in Pennsylvania omg
Y mustang n a box?

If black bear is what you initially thought of why change her name? I like and support it. Every name doesn't have to be creative or have a special story
