Brooke Myers was featured in the March 2013 issue of American Girl Magazine for her work gentling a wild mustang. In 2009, Brooke, then age 9, gentled a yearling mustang who she named Jacuzzi and entered a Mustang Makeover which was held in Murfreesboro, TN. Her hard work and patience to her project paid off and she was named Reserve Grand Champion in the Youth division for the event.
We were contacted by the editorial staff of American Girl Magazine about a feature article for Brooke because the story fit so perfectly with information they want to disseminate to young girls who dream of having their own horse and pony. Of course Brooke was ecstatic about doing the article and Jacuzzi continued to be a good sport throughout the entire photo shoot.
Brooke and Jacuzzi have had a special relationship from the start. Throughout his training, the two developed a tight bond and today they enjoy participating as a team in many events from trail riding to performing at demonstrations and expos across the country.
