HORSE: Saturn
- 19 year old AQHA
- Saturn has a pretty cool story. Back in July 2023 she was scheduled to be put down, her previous owners being too overwhelmed with her and thinking she had lameness issues that couldn't be fixed. I (Tabbie) work at an Equine vet clinic and the vet that went to the appointment couldn't bear to put her down as she wasn't in too bad of shape and just needed a few minor things to fix her up. The doctor came back to the clinic that day found me during my shift and we made a plan for me to take her home. She is an off track quarter horse and was raised on the track but didn't get any starts before she went to a new home. For 12 years she lived alone in a small backyard in the city, now Saturn is happy as ever, loves being in a herd with 5 other horses and is such a smart mare. A diamond in the rough is the best way to put her.
RIDER: Tabbie Jo Jensen
- Tabbie is an Equine Veterinary Technician/anesthesiologist at South Valley Equine. In her free time, she does western and english riding competing in barrel racing and rodeo, eventing, showing jumping and always looking for the next discipline to try and spending time when not competing in the mountains for trail rides with the horses. Tabbie likes to take the "problem" horses or the ones that are given up on and turn them around and watch them excel in their second chances.
SKIER: Natalia Capote
- Natalia has transformed form a yuppie to the western way of life now competing in barrels, breakaway, and rodeo queening. She enjoys everyday on her farm.
