The duo is training for the virtual Lexington, Kentucky Extreme Mustang Makeover competition in the youth division. It challenges trainers to take a completely wild horse and train it. “I spent a majority of my time, like, building trust, building a relationship before I took any steps further,” Lukefahr said. “About three weeks ago, I finally got the halter on and it has blossomed from there.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59cdb11fe5dd5b22992985a0/1624891528334-M252BR7W2W6QJG9KKRJE/0502_LOC_HorseTraining4.jpg From Antelope Valley to an arena Lukefahr touches Jade after being able to get a saddle blanket on her for the first time during training.

Every step makes an unfamiliar, scary crinkle sound. To not be afraid of unfamiliar noise or things is no easy feat for Jade. Lukefahr said the wild horse's instincts tell her to avoid the unfamiliar since she fears it could kill her, and most things in the human world are unfamiliar to her. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/59cdb11fe5dd5b22992985a0/1624891501713-WCCAOX0R70WEL8PBMOYJ/0601_LOC_MustangTraining4.jpg From Antelope Valley to an arena Lukefahr looks back as she walks away from Jade.
