- Can a $25 auction save compete with the best horses in the world? I think so!
Although she has a long way to go I truly believe this little girl has what it takes to be competitive against much fancier horses!

Go Scarlet show those “rich” horses a Indian pony is just as good
I'm such a squish. When you said it is important to have big dreams for these rescue horses, I just melted. Gah. Go Scarlett!
Thank you for letting your horses mature before riding and for prioritizing their long-term comfort and soundness over any personal goal. Headed over to your Amazon wish list as a TY.
I'd rather wait an extra year or two and miss out on some opportunities... So much time is spent training a nice horse to a high level it is a shame when they are being retired at 6-7-8 years old. I'd much rather start then at 4-5-6 and see them sound into their 20's!
Sent you two de-icers. I know you asked for one, but in Montana, I want you to have a backup.
@@SarahWilsonMySmartPuppy That is so generous! Thank you so much! ❤️
Reining is supposed to be the most demanding on horses after racing. Not a fan of it. Maybe I have got a wrong impression of reining. I hate the low heads and dead dog look. Also quite a few stories of abuse.@@TheCleverCowgirl
the low headset is pretty natural, reining horses can have nice long careers depending on how they're started@@juliaforsyth8332
It's also a sport that starts horses too young, too fast (The Futurity) and breaks them down by 7 or 8 years old. Good for you for taking your time. I remember yearlings being run into walls to teach them to stop. Yearlings!!! If she grows into that butt, she is so croupe high now, she could hit 15+ hands and I think you said she had Trakehner in her. Those horses don't reach full height until 4 or 5 years old. And yes, I have done reining and dressage into upper levels and found the dressage work was wonderful for the reiners. Dressage horses are taught to move off the outside rein so the turning was never difficult. Have fun!
horses are not run into a wall to get them to stop, they're run up close to a wall in order to get them making a long run down and not anticipating a stop. The futurities di not break a horse down by the time they are 7 or 8either. We have several horses (one did reining and cow horse futurities in the same year) and they have remained sound and are now in their senior years. and there are a lot of horses in reining and cow horse that reach 15 hands although many don't. If the mare has trakehner in her it will not help her being a top level reiner and since her rider gets paid for training she will have to compete with open riders who have won millions doing this. It's a nice dream but with the riding the mare will miss following her schedule she will not be broke enough to compete successfully. I'll probably be flamed for this message but you have to be real and see what the experience level will add to the other horses abilities compared to this filly
@@joecunningham9501 you probably enjoy the hell out of Chuck wagon races too don’t you?
That is so cool, everyone loves an underdog story.
So silly but I wish I lived close by to help you with chores so you’d have more time to train.
Good luck and I LOVE your channel! Thank you for rescuing all those happy horses.
Not silly, I would do the same!
I love this lady & her channel!! Even her sweet voice. Thank you for giving us a chance to go along with you!
Love your commNt thAT Scarlet has a good mind and is independent, " not the best for a reining horse", lol. Scarlet is in great hands. She is still a baby. She does not need to be pushed and risk kissing spine and a life of pain. Rooting for both of you.
Sport horses are started way too young and end up with so many issues with their bodies breaking down at a young age. So glad you are giving her time to physically mature before you put pressure on her ❤
I am confident of one thing...she is a real treasure - thanks to you!!! No matter what happens at the shows you bring her to, she is so special!!! Wow, see what a bit of patience and clever training can do!!! Love it, LOVE IT A TON!!! ❤❤❤
I watched Scarlett halter training sessions. I used to work with rescue dogs, most in the worst shape or behaviors . One lesson I learned was that being able to see them in the end result was a gift that not everyone has, and you have it. You can see this in Scarlett bc it is there, I see it too. I have no doubt that the two of you together will make this happen.
Scarlett is just STUNNING! I'm NOT any kind of expert, but she has a bit of sass, which I LOVE!❤ She really is a beautiful young lady.🐎❤👍🏽🤗 It's obvious she's aware of EVERYTHING around her, she's no one's fool.
She will excel at whatever you give her the confidence to do. I have faith in your ability. And she seems to be highly intelligent and aware . I just love this baby.
I think when you actually get Scarlet under saddle, you will be able to tell more about her abilities! Her mind and her athletic ability will become more evident. As a viewer who had QH horses years ago, it is hard to say at this point how she will do. I have been following Tim Anderson he is training a palomino Mustang for working cow horse classes. Mustangs can be surprising in their ability! I'm going to enjoy Scarlets journey!! She definitely has possibilities!!
QH horses??? (🤔 Quarter Horses horses )
I follow Tim Anderson as well. This channel and Tim are my to two horse channels 😊
I find it heartbreaking that so many 'prospects' are broken in body and mind before even reaching maturity. Their bodies are ruined by the process and they are used, abused, pushed beyond the pale into unnatural behaviour and then dumped in the slaughter pipeline and we ALL KNOW yet it continues and these 'trainers' gain and profit.
THANK YOU FOR SHOWING HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE!
WE are with YOU!! ❤
I'm glad that you found, another good horse!! That's why you are called: The Clever Cowgirl!! Because you are extremely smart 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
Well done for your big dreams for Scarlet. Fingers crossed for a rags to riches story!
I think you are right to base your hope on the head (intelligence) and heart (courage/spirit) of Scarlet. How wonderful if a “wild horse” won or even placed well in this competition!
This is exciting news! Scarlett has unlimited potential, and I look forward to your future videos detailing her training and progress. I'm with you in thinking her independent spirit may be better suited to an event like working cow horse, but the preparation required for the reining futurity will give her a super solid base. I am rooting for you and Scarlett!!! ❤
The NRCHA and NCHA do not allow grade horses in their futurities, I did look into it last year. The NRHA will take money from anyone 🤣
So cool I didn't know you coud nominate a grade horse for that that is awesome..I saw the other day a registered horse saved from a kill pen almost won This years million dollar barrel futurity.
Love your journey and watching Scarlett mature. She is proof positive that wild horses deserve so much more than being consigned to the slaughter pipeline. So glad that the $25 youngster caught your eye. Dreaming big and having the talent to bring it all together is a recipe for success. No longer ride but have learned so many practical things about horses, tack, and animal husbandry from you. Hope more people discover your channel. It has so much to offer. Side note: Montana is an awesome place to live. Those sunsets you have shared are beyond beautiful.
I can not wait to see you and Scarlett show them how it's done! Love it!❤❤❤
She has grown into a stunning girl!!
if she wants to, you've got all the talent
This is such an awesome story! As a fellow reiner with a 3 (coming 4)year old that I will be training from this point on my own, I wish you luck! I'd love to show at the futurity one day. Who know maybe one day we will cross paths! Best wishes!
Love your journey! Thank you for sharing Scarlet with us! She is a beauty! 💕
…Happy first day of December 2023, Clever Cowgirl and family. 🐶 🐈 🌾 🐴 🐴 🐴 ❄️ ⛄️💙
Oh My!! Scarlet has grown up, filled out, and become so beautiful!! I am so impressed!
Ima just hit you with a pre-emptive Like, cause i do like all your videos. Scarlett is lovely, and i'm glad she found a home in you.
I don't know anything about the Futurity but it sounds interesting! Thank you for taking us along the journey. Looking forward to learning more about it and how you'll be training Scarlett.
Wow! I look forward to following Scarlett's training. I have faith in your expertise and training techniques. This will be fun for us - hard work and dedication for you. Rooting for you both! 🐴❤
She’s not pretty she is absolutely beautiful, I love this little filly and I think she’s going to be amazing for you in the future, tfs x Julie 🇬🇧
I have to say, I am somewhat new to you channel and I AM HOOKED!!!! I can't wait to see more of you and Scarlet growing in your training and bond! Very exciting!
That is awesome! Glad you found me. Big stuff in store for little Scarlett in the future!
OMG I love you for making this commitment so early. Go SCARLET!
CC, your visionary big dreams for Scarlet have my vote, even with that $3,000 entry fee. You do like a challenge, don't you? I apply this mind set to my own projects. Against all odds, I proceed and push to the limits. Testing the mettel in the fire is how we self-actualize. 👍 Be the one who sets the bar highest and goes for it! Great planning with her, by the way.
Exactly!
Oh I am so loving Scarlett's story, I am cheering you guys on! I love the idea of you rolling up, show em a sight! 💖
You wouldn't think of selling Scarlett, would you?? She is a part of you and your family.
I could see you doing this to prove a point to other trainers and perhaps some of the folks that don't think you could achieve this!!
Please keep her in your family❤❤
I don't have any plans to sell her anytime soon!
@@TheCleverCowgirl. I cannot imagine you can maintain 13 horses without selling some of them. I believe you are the kind of person who is kind enough to ensure your horse is sold to a loving owner.
@@TheCleverCowgirl I realize you are a rescue and money is tight, but horses like Scarlett have to be so rare. Is she a "heart horse" to you? I have no idea. She sure seems special to us viewers though. Good luck in the Futurity when it comes around😁😁🐎🐎
You need to be realistic. CC cannot continue to collect horses without re-homing some of them, and she already has some that will never be able to be successfully re-homed. Once she has successfully re-habbed a horse and positioned it for a good home, she may choose to let it go once the right home is offered - to free up some space and time so she can adopt more horses that need her help.
@@jasperstarr6804 Do you actually believe a viewer is going to tell or suggest to CC what to do?? A suggestion is just that. I started watching her when she first got Scarlett and did her 30 day training. I have nothing invested besides a few donations to offset some costs. I personally mean nothing as do my comments OR wishes. CC is a smart business woman and she will do what's best for ALL of her animals. I'm dumb, but I'm not stupid.
I think this is a good idea. I think she is going to do great. She a so smart and she has the right person working with her, "YOU!" Good luck,, GM
I just learned of this on the TV show " The Last Cowboy*". These horses are amazing. But it's very intense and I wonder how hard it is on their bodies and bone structure.
It really depends on the trainer and their level of horsemanship. If they are doing right by the horse and letting them have time off for minor injuries the horses last much longer. But if they are being pushed through injuries to show at some of the big money events they will have a much shorter career. It is a sad reality in many horse sports where money is the motivating factor :(
@@TheCleverCowgirl
I understand what you are saying. And I agree with you. Thank you for your input and helping me to understand. I was watching the last cowboy and it seemed to me that their was a lot of horses on there that were sad. Almost like they don't get enough time to just be a horse.
I have a feeling with Scarlett's genetics she going to prove herself and surprise everyone. And I have no doubt that she's in the best hands possible. Keep up the great work. I appreciate you
Enjoy your channel and Nice filly! I found a well bred papered QH filly for 5k. She had been started and over ridden by heavy cowboys. She started resisting and bucking.
I evaluated her, got her, took care of her gut, massaged, chiropracted and fixed her feet over time.
She had a mind of her own and it came out when she began feeling good! She was ok in ranch riding but she excelled in ranch work. She is now a champion ranch versatility cow horse!
The independent ones love a job and love to think! 😊
Scarlett is beautiful. I’m sure we all love her. You can do this girl.!!!
Love her story
What an exciting goal for you! Excited to watch your training over the next couple of years.
Dreams are for in love with life people ❤ Best of luck Scarlett! You go cowgirl 🎉
Scarlett has a fantastic trott she picks up her legs well, Could be a jumper or trick horse, Try finding a sponsor for her maybe you could find a company that would be interested to help both you and her out, Its hard when you have to deal in an enviroment your in thats the weather makes it very hard and sometimes depressing, Keep up the hard wok you are doing a great job,
Agree. Look for sponsors. Influencer Adam Sandoval started out w a $500/month sponsor for his motorcycle Wounded Warrior fundraisers and has become famous for his work, and raised enormous sums of money for the soldiers.
Go Scarlett Go!!!! I would love to see her excel at reining! It would be so exciting to see her perform at Futurity. I also wonder if she/you would be interested in CTR or Endurance? She might be suited to it. She's one tough little cookie!!
I might dip my toes in endurance this summer! It’s always fun to try new things
She is very athletic. She should do a great job at the futurists.
Too early to tell what disciplines she will excel at, but I think it will become clearer once you progress with her training. Love that you are open to whatever areas of training and future THAT MIGHT SUIT HER. It may be that her coming from a wild background can also have some advantages if nurtured properly. Your doing a great job with her thus far, and she seems to be pretty attached to you, which will go a long way in her training. I also love the fact that you allow her to grow and mature physically and mentally. In my opinion, some of these horses are started too intense and too early based based on where a 2 year old is growth/maturity wise. The risk of injury goes way up when started before they are matured properly.
A well trained horse can do anything! I believe in you & miss Scarlett she looks so much like my mare when she was young. She’s now 16.3hh and 26 years young 🐴
I'm really rooting for you and Scarlett ❤❤❤❤
That is so cool that you have your own awesome place in MT for all your horses! I had to move out of MT, after living in MT and being raised in WY, so i could even remotely afford a small piece of property with small house and old Cleary barn and outdoor arena. Best of lucky to you and Scarlet at the Futurity! Letting her mature is so smart especialy to protect her musculoskeletal in the long-term!
I currently rent two different properties for the horses. As soon as the market cools down we will start looking for a place to buy again. But holy cow it has gotten expensive! We will likely be forced to move out of state, the Yellowstone effect for sure!
@@TheCleverCowgirl Yep ... crazy expensive property values in Mt. I thought I had this great place I was going to buy outside of Cody WY. They were going to build a place on their property in Dubois, WY when their daughter graduated from HS and sell me their place out towards Buffalo Bill Dam near Cody. Due to cost if building a new home, they decided to stay in Cody. Man, I was so bummed ... that place had my name on it and was in my home state ... oh well ... sob 😢! I lived in Columbia Falls MT on an acre and had to board($$$) my horses too far away and exasperating 8n so many ways. So, are you over on the East Side ... lol ... I am just trying to figure those mountains! 🙃
Scarlett will win for you because you let your horses grow up before you ride them and you gain their trust in the way you look after them and you show them kindness and love in the way you show them under saddle and i respect you because you care for your horses
.If you Dream it, You can do it together...Believe in her strength, power and intelligence and the rest will fall into place.....
Ranch riding! Kim Gately is in your state who does a fair amount of RR clinics:and training.
Ranch riding competitions are something I have enjoyed doing, but the recent changes in the rules. The last few years have changed it into western pleasure riding while stepping over poles. It’s not really ranch riding anymore. I live east of the Mississippi, so maybe it still is bona fide ranch riding west of the Mississippi, for all I know. I hope so.
Seriously beautiful dreams for Miss Scarlett!!! ❤
I think she will excel at EVERYTHING! I think by this time next year that you will have your own place with someone to help out on the side, so that you can invest more time into training her. Or not, I don't know what situation works for you :P I can just picture her placing first and making headlines! I will do the PR myself lol
Scarlett is gorgeous and she'll Excell at what ever discipline you think she's best at. I'm looking forward to watching her and the rest of your brood grow. Enjoy life, it goes by fast.
Follow your dreams Scarlet🎉
Honestly, I think you should do team penning or cutting. In the 80's I played the "cow" for QH snaffle bit futurities. I think she would do well doing that.
You might wait to send in the full amount for her nomination, unless you can get a refund. Until you know it's she'll do better doing a reining pattern or working cows.
The reality is that she has not had a living daylights blasted out of her like a lot of her opposition. Given that they start youngsters earlier than even a thoroughbred training would do. You have to wonder how much hammer she has not had to take. Also she has been through the sales ring and through an auction house which has given her some education she’s been gathered from wild HEARD and that’s been a pretty stressful situation. Let’s face it she’s got more underneath her than you give her credit for and you give yourself credit for.
She might cost you $25, but I would suspect if she does well you’ll end up getting an offer for her considerably more than that .
Also, if she does manage to do well in the show ring then potentially she could be a decent broodmares prospect for somebody looking to bring in a bit more durability into the bloodlines and some fresh genetics.
I look forward to seeing more of Scarlets journey to the futurity ❤
Go for eventing and show jumping with Scarlett because Scarlett would have to jump over things when she was in the wild and she is very shore footed and that would help you when you have timed events and Scarlett has a good turn of speed that will help as well
I hope your dreams come true❤
How very exiting, a whole New aspect opens up over Scarlet and your self! First I went to look up what ment 'N I . . whatever Fururity,...then managed to find NCHA Futurity and a video of the sale from last December. .... Aha! I always thought there could be some other Goal somewhere behind your hard work and love for Horses! Yes of course, I am not in a position to suggest anything about Scarlet. But, will be eager to discover more about what will be a whole new World to me. How to select, train, groom, a little Horse named Scarlet, grown up to be a 14.2 Hand One and make a future NCHA Futurity Horse out of her and..., a trainer out of you! I am very happy to discover more... !
How exciting for Scarlet!!! I wouldn’t mind supporting you for the show. When and where do I send funds ??? And thanks for the video I was wondering how my fav horse from Montana was doing !!
Is Skelatore getting along better now ?
Thanks again !
❤️🐴❤️💯
No funds necessary! You are welcome to check out our Amazon wishlist if you would like to support the horses with things we use all the time! Skeletor thinks he is king of the castle! much happier now!!
Team Scarlett!! Whooo hooo!
This adventure could be a movie! Seriously
Sending good vibes to you and Scarlett for all you do together and the work ahead. You are both so special.
Live your idea, she has very nice movement!!!, set up a go fund me we all will help!!!
Yes! ❤
I've got my Amazon wishlist linked in the description for anyone that feels moved by her story and wants to help with a few things I use on a day to day basis. I have a hard time accepting help and plan very carefully to make sure all my horses have everything they need! The best thing you can do to support my ponies is like, subscribe, and share my channel with a friend who might enjoy it!
Good luck.
Best wishes to you and Scarlett! We believe in you both! ❤❤❤
I think Scarlet will do great, She’s got a good mind kind face and is smart!!
Wow - ambitious plan and it's going to be wonderful to watch Scarlett's developments - have a feeling she'll cooperate with you because she knows you've saved her.
The difference is you care a lot about the mental and physical health of your horses and i believe that they are going to be better rounded and best horses anyone can ever own
Good for you! She is fortunate to have you. Good luck!!
Scarlet’s story reminds me of the story “Snowman the Eighty Dollar Horse”. He went on to show in Madison Square Garden and winning a national championship.
She's a real beauty! Good luck to both of you! 💖💖
I love what you are planning to do with Scarlett! Scarlett's future is so full of wonderful possibilities because you saw the diamond in the rough. ❤🙂🐎
I Think She Will Do Great ! I'm Hoping Her Independent Mind Will Make Her Very Flexible For Doing Many Things With Her Training ! Love What Your Doing ! Go Team Scarlett !!!!!!!
Good on you and all your horses. May God bless you and all of your horses.
Good Luck!
Well, I was just typing it into the comments when you said it.
Typically, it's just easier for the smaller frame horses to do those maneuvers. Compact body mass, easier to adjust position on a dime.
I think Scarlet would be an amazing cow horse. She'll have the height to really be above a herd. And for driving cattle, she'd be back on the plains, where she's from....
I have a family member that competes nationally in NRHA competition. How fun. I hope you do well.
This is exciting news! Congratulations on your goals and vision with Scarlett and looking forward to following your story together.
in some ways, depending on how you look at it. You have already won.
I love watching all of your videos. I especially would like to watch and see how you train her and watch her at the shows.
Good luck with your plan. I can’t wait to follow her progress! She has such a scopey stride I think she could be a three day eventer. Maybe
an upper level Pony Club horse. I’ve known several mustangs that have been awesome Pony Club horses.
I think so too! If she gets as big as I think she might get she will be a pretty silly looking reiner :)
Bold! I look forward to seeing the journey here!
I really enjoyed her story so dar!
This is crazy cool 😎 sounds great 💯
Will be watching!!!!!!
How exciting!
I think this is awesome I will cheer you all the way!!
Oh, this is so funny, I'm also doing something similar, I am training my $175 shelter Malinois Maxine to compete as a "blue dog" (a blue dog is a spayed, neutered, unpapered or a mixed breed) for her Brevet (beginning level) in French Ring dog sports. Hopefully we will compete this fall but realistically I will have to push the time forward one year to 2025. Usually, ring sport handlers compete with papered Malinois with huge price tags and paid coaches, trainers or both. I understand your drive and I hope you achieve your dream.
PS. Check into Matt Mills, he loves an underdog. Look at the story of the horse Blue Thunder on his channel.
This is so exciting. Love your channel and I look forward to following the journey with your futurity training.
Thank you so much!
I’m looking forward to watching the progress and process!
All my life I have believed that every horse is good for something. The mark of a good trainer is being able to find that thing and make the horse excel in it, whatever it is. I have a very blue collar attitude toward horsemanship. I like basic utility over pampered hothouse flowers. If she has talent in working cattle, that is a useful skill.
I really admire your devotion to your animals! All on your own you have done great to learn , saddler, farrier and training skills. Well done!
Thank you very much!
Best of Luck to you and Scarlett.
A lot depends on her confirmation at age three, doesn’t it? Right now she’s looking pretty good for a reining prospect.
She gets better and better as she grows!
Go team Scarlett ❤❤
