What a transition, from dealing with that resident Mare in the quarantine pen, to out for adventure on a magnificent trail ride in Montana!
Thank you so much for inviting us along !
Ziggy is such a Prince, and you are the best thing that has happened to him, imo.
🐴🥰🦋💕
😂BEAUTIFUL RIDE HE IS A FANTASTIC PARTNER FOR THE TRAILS. ABSOLUTELY GEORGIOUS 🎉🎉😂❤🎉
"The trail is supposed to be pretty well marked"
"We all got lost"
Someone is going to love having this good boy in their stable.😽
He seems like such a steadfast trail horse.
Ziggy Made His Mark: Climbing A Mountain!! How Fabulous Is That!! The Clever Cowgirl Took Her $600.00 And Made It Count!! I Always Knew She Is A Smart Woman!!❤😊
Thank you so much!!! What a lovely gift you have given us. Beautiful ride on an adorable horse. Well done!
@mary-alicetully9843 The Clever Cowgirl Is A Real STAND-UP LADY!!
Thank you for taking us along on your and Ziggy's first big trail ride! Ziggy did terrific! Not many horses would be that calm on unfamiliar trails with no other horses. Ziggy is going to make some trail rider extremely happy one day! ❤
Oh? Do you want sell Ziggy again? 🧐
@brodaloaden1008 Nope! I would love for him to stay right where he is, but Clever Cowgirl has mentioned that her plans for Ziggy are to get him strong, healthy, and tuned up a bit, and then find him a loving home. I'm hoping she ends up changing her mind, and we get to tag along on lots more trail rides with Ziggy. He is a lovely horse. ❤️
@@annjohnson8437 Thanks much for the info! I hope too. They fit beautyful together
You could tell Ziggy was himself.
Something that he definitely needed.
Looks like the perfect mount for a young teen to join their family on trails-I am praying for a good happy home for him
I’m sure CC will make absolutely 100% certain, or as much as humanly possible anyway, to make sure that Ziggy DOES go to the VERY BEST HOME, FOR HIM.
There’s absolutely no way anybody wants to see him back in the auction system again.
I agree with you also, that I personally can see Ziggy with a younger teenager, possibly their first ever horse, and being loved AND spoiled as he most certainly deserves. Just imagine how he would be feeling? Being dotted on and smothered in so much love and care, with him teaching his new loving owner all about horsemanship and what it feels like to have AND love your horse.
Sounds so perfect for him doesn’t it?♥️
@@traciehart4470I’m thinking he’s perfect for an older (57), well seasoned rider like myself! I owned horses for decades, considering selling and moving back to where I can have some around once more. I have no interest in training youngsters again. An older, calm horse like Zig is my ideal riding buddy!
@@janey1098 sounds absolutely perfect Janey. 🥰
@@janey1098 Exactly. So many says he'd be perfect for some teen. That's fine, but what happens to Ziggy when the teen grows up and heads off to college, jobs, marriage, etc? Even in high school, there are friends, parties, classes, boyfriends, and school work. How much time would this "young teen" have to spend with a horse once the novelty ends?
@@ElleSimon-wi1cm I'm sure he'd take care of it. some teen probably wouldnt just throw ziggy away, he'd keep him to show to his friends, bring to buddies, show his boyfriend(s) and do school work with zig. Just gotta find the right guy
Ms. Tiny has allot of rules that everyone has to adhere to. She runs a tight ship
I’ve trail rode for fifty years and every horse I’ve rode was scared of a stump and one of my horses was afraid of the same stump for years I think he liked to make a big deal of it😂
My mare would do the same
lol We mostly rode on roadsides to get to a big open plateau where we let rip and my beautiful Anglo Arab would shy at the same huge rock 'Shying Rock' every time, but jump smaller ones, which were still big, no problem. My heart horse❤️
I remember my brother's horse was so brave, but one day, she was scared to pass a pinecone. 😂
Was there a demon in the stump? I think I’d get suspicious after the first few horse all shied at it!!!
@@MsDormy The stump was shaped like a chair it had a high back a seat and four legs we rode by it for every day for ten years and every horse would eyeball it but my horse would jump sideways going out on the trail and start looking for it on the way back he was very broke had hours and hours of trail ridding and it was strange looking to me but I didn’t know if it really scared him he never spooked from anything else you just knew to hang on when his ears came up and his neck got stiff🤷♀️
We adopted a 15 year old Arabian who was similar to Ziggy. He was the best, did cattle drives, trail rides, all 'round good mount. He passed from CHF in our care at age 37. These good Arabians are worth their weight in gold.
He's so elegant and gentle, such a lovely little horse
Thank you for taking us along on Ziggy's beautiful adventure! My horse riding days were soo loong ago, now that I am an old lady. Makes me cry a little. Thank you! Thank you!
This old lady's riding days are also over, but my ❤ for horses remains as strong as ever. Tears in my eyes too 😟
Me too! :)
Joining the longing for those days club. Mine were predominantly in Utah, love western states although living in Virginia now.
I chuckled at her mentioning her butt not being in riding condition lol. All my horsey muscles would be speaking up, but if I get a chance, even now I'd do it. Even 7 miles right now. Course I might be calling out of work the next day or so, but it'd be sooo wortth it.
I do have horses next door so I can get mini horse fixes putting my nose in their neck. Ahhh that smell. They got watermelon treats yesterday too. I rode Arabians in Utah with a trainer. Owned one. Fun days. Never leaves us.
Another old lady here. I used to ride in the mountains of VT. Miss those beautiful logging trails and all the wildlife.
@@debbiemorris2644my name is Nickie, in my early 80s and wishing for one last ride. Miss those days in southern California when there was back country to ride in or the ocean close by to splash in. Rode an Arab for several years. She was a wonderful friend and a great ride.
This was an excellent example of what an Arabian can do on a trail ride. Bravo Ziggy you are a very good boy!
OK neigh-sayers, now we'll see who can ride!!!
I love that you're riding him bitless.
Yes, that was a pleasant surprise to me!
I had a white Arab for 16 years. Rode him at age28 on a 10 day Sierra camping trip. I brought m olasses to put in his water on long trailer rides.
Ziggy deserves a young girl who just loves him forever and is her heart horse.❤
So this is rush hour in Montana. Ziggy's tail is perfect. It looked so good. It's hard to believe it's the same horse. I'm happy Ziggy had a good time.
I would consider myself a non animal person and have been described as a technological barbarian by some people. However I have found this channel very soothing and even therapeutic. I have become a fan of the channel and appreciate the animal care that others are involved in
Thanks for taking a chance on Ziggy. 💕
🥲
The shot of the horses grazing, the hot air balloons and the mountains as a back drop looked like a painting. ❤❤❤ So beautiful.
And thank you for taking us for a ride ( virtually ) in Montana - divine ❤
Look at those ears! Ziggy really is living his best life now 😊
He has a sense of humor. And a much better sense of himself than I originally thought. Very nice horse.
Oh my goodness, that took me back 35 years to when I used to lead groups hacking forestry trails in County Wicklow, Ireland. My 'pay' was riding whenever I wanted for free. I used to take a lovely Anglo-Arab and spend hours in the forest watching the wildlife and enjoying the scenery and the time alone with my favourite horse. The Wicklow Mountains can't compete with yours in Montana but at least we didn't have to worry about bears! Great memories. For a while now I've been hoping you would keep Ziggy, but seeing him here I think he would probably be happier with someone who could devote more time, getting him out and about - time you don't necessarily have to spend with just one horse. I no longer have horses in my life and I so enjoy your videos. I like the way you are with your animals and the way you show the hard work - and risks - that accompanies your lifestyle. Thank you for sharing your passion, it is much appreciated 😊 ❤ from Scotland 🏴
Ziggy is a true prize! He's a beauty.
Ziggy was a good boy thats for sure. What a little gem.
Loved that big yawn at the end. Ziggy's a sweetheart. Thanks for taking us along.
He's gotten really handsome and his colors are more vibrant. He doesn't look tike the same horse that arrived to your stables. That was amazing scenery. ❤
What a STUNNINGLY GORGEOUS video CC! ❤❤ THANK YOU!😘🤗🙏🏽🐴 ZIGGY is a Star!⭐ Montana truly is BEAUTIFUL!!🌺 🌻🌱 🐎 🐈 🌄
Ziggy the rock star! We love the Ziggster!
Ziggy was awesome. That scenery is incredible!!
Ziggy looks so incredibly beautiful and must think he died and went to horse heaven with all the kindness and pampering you've been showering on him.😍💕 I haven't ridden for many years, so I just love you taking us on this ride!
To think that this wonderful horse was tossed into the recycle bin as obsolete equipment that no one wanted. Look at him now - sleek, ears pricked and alert, and hugely enjoying his trek with you. He must love having a kind and knowledgeable rider so he can relax and enjoy the trip. 😍💕💓
And just like that, I've had my first virtual trail ride!!! Woohoo!!🐎
Much nicer this way.: no leg & back pain, mosquito/bug bites, no hauling or driving! Thank you CC!! I really do feel like I rode Zigster with you!!🙋🏼♀️💕
Your Humor. In your description 🤭😆🤣
“We get a little lost”….
“Ziggy goes solo”….
“Do we make it out alive”…
Hilarious.
He is so so pretty.
And you were so caring making sure he didn’t get overworked on this first trip.
I laugh every time you puts words to Tiny’s looks and actions. Thank you for taking us along on Ziggy’s trail ride! So glad the UA-cam algorithm lead me to your channel. I hope your channel continues to grow and helps you support your horses.
What extraordinarily beautiful scenery - so vast and yet so pretty. I will watch this again for that. And above all, the darling Ziggy was SO good, alert, and happy. He seemed to enjoy it all immensely. Thank you for taking us along with you both.
I like Ziggy's connection with you. He is so kind and respectful and trusting and curious. This is a pleasure to watch. I love how you are so in tune with your animals needs. Thank you, CC, for sharing today.
Ziggy walked between the puddles because he didn't want to ruin his new shoes, haahaa. Pretty scenery. Yup and the legs, oy, you'll feel it tomorrow. 🙂 Ziggy was just perfect.
Is it just me or does anyone else think that Ziggy has either been surprised by a snake from under a fallen log before or is just smart enough to know they could be there? Thank you for letting us come along with his ride - he did seem to truly the experience and it is wonderful to see the care you put into making his day so much fun!
Thanks for taking us along.
What a beautiful ride. It was a real treat to see the Montana mountains. Ziggy was in his element and knew how to keep you and himself safe. You have done a wonderful job restoring him to his former glory; I am sure he is very grateful.
Love your humour! If I fall off some will find my carcass eventually 😂😂
Hopefully before the bears!
😂 I chuckled at that too. Sounds like something I would say.
@@mels7735 we all giggled too she's great 😎
😂😅
Arabs and H2O!! 😂❤
Pretty good days are awesome with a horse like Ziggy. Thank you so much for letting me tag along. It was fun!
Ziggy is a treasure
What a little superstar Ziggy is. Such a sweet natured boy. Someone is going to be very lucky when you rehome him to his forever home.
I loved the perspective. I didn't feel like I was riding the horse, I felt like I WAS the horse! From being Ziggy, I learned how much horses use their ears to gather information about their environment and I also enjoyed how Ziggy took time to fully take in the magnificent view. He is so awesome. Thanks so much for the trail ride!
Ziggy looks stunning and shiny today with his new gear
You are so kind to Ziggy -- my trail ride companions back in the early '60s were Native Americans -- their ponies were tough, really tough, and we negotiated Colorado glacier area with the grace of ballerinas. No water, no rest and all leather strapping. He has the will of a good trail rider -- practice makes perfect! Hope he has a happy landing!
This trail ride was magical; perfect horse, perfect weather, perfect landscape. Made my heart ache for days gone by. When I saw that you're riding in an unknown place with just a halter and lead rope, I thought you must be either incredibly confident or incredibly brave; I know it would never have occurred to me to do such a thing. I'm glad your "carcass" made it back home 🙂
It made me so happy that Ziggy justified the confidence CC placed in him when she took him out with just a halter and lead rope. What an excellent horse he is! They make a fine pair.
That ride had Ziggy so mentally stimulated I don't think he'd have minded another 3 hours. He seems the type of good boy you can just tag along with as he explores nature and can trust to take you home when he's done.
Hope you had a nice long soak after! Thanks for taking us along❤
You think of EVERYTHING to protect your furry family… I wish all animal owners were that way ❤️
Also, I love looking through those perfectly-pointed Arabian ears at the trail in front of him. Trail riding is perfect for him!
I LOVE HIM so much. 🥰🥰🥰 if I didn't have 300 black angus, I'd buy that boy. He's going to make some teenage girl's dream come true!
Maybe I'm all wrong, but I don't know about teenagers. There are lots of mature people who would be thrilled to get Ziggy, and they aren't going to go off to college, leave for a career, get married, etc. Okay, I want Ziggy!😄😍
@@ElleSimon-wi1cmwho wouldn’t want him. What a beautiful horse and a beautiful pairing of CC and Ziggy
It will be super cool to find him a nice home that does activities like that
Wow, CC! What a ride! Stunning 360° views and Ziggy livin' his best life. I love how prepared you were about every comfort and scenario Ziggy might have encountered. I felt like you could almost read his mind during that ride. Thanks for such a great video and GOOD BOY ZIGGY!!🐎💜🐎
Ziggy is so freakin cute and good!!! His ears are just slightly curled almost like a Marwari horse ❤ My fave quote: “I fall off and my carcass is laying in the trail someone will find me eventually” LMFAO
With such a beautiful day and lush forest and Ziggy being primarily white, I’m getting such fairytale vibes with this video😍
Ill be so sad if u find ziggy a new home. He's the most gorgeous horse ive ever seen. I know this is apart of what u do but it will still be sad..idk how u do it, it must be incredibly heartbreaking to get attached 2 a horse and than rehoming that horse uve fallen in love with.. ur an awesome person, ty 4 doing what u do and giving these horses a 2nd chance..And such a wonderful life...
Yes, ditto!!!❤
Ziggy looked so happy and content at the end like he really enjoyed the day.
That look Tiny gave you at around 2:49 was so darn cute. He was like seriously Mom you need to check this out. 😂
Yeah, I think Tiny was a little disappointed in Mom’s attitude. Don’t you realize we have a problem?! 🤣🤣
I love the way you comfort and reassure Zig that everything is ok. ❤❤
What a wonderful experience for Ziggy!! Your kindness and care for him is probably the best he has had!! Your knowledge and horse sense are tremendous! Thanks for the opportunity to share a lovely spring trail ride with you and Ziggy❣️ Loved the description of the scents! And so glad you did not have any bear encounters.
My favorite view riding has always been looking between my horses ears. Made me really miss my guys who have gone on without me.🥰 They were the best times.❤
The scenery is beautiful. Yes, Ziggy is loving it.😊
Makes me very nostalgic for my own trail riding days in Oregon and Wyoming. It was a beautiful ride and it was good to see Ziggy looking really happy to be out on the trail again. Thank you for taking us along!
I wish you could keep Ziggy forever and ever 😢❤
Thank you so much for taking us along on your ride. Ziggy was a superstar with you as an experienced guide on his back.
Thanks for taking us along, that was fun! I’ll be sad to see Ziggy go but know that you’ll find him a good home.
I am SO attached to Ziggy for some reason. From the first video of him, I felt like he had the sweetest eyes ❤ I teared up during the clips of him gazing out at the mountains when yall were alone. Makes you wonder what he’s thinking about. The only time I’ve ever been on a horse was on a trail ride in Montana as a kid. We’re from Louisiana, so these were rental horses lol. The second time we went, they gave me a horse that kept trying to run away from the group while I was on him, and he also tried to scrape me off of him using trees. I was maybe 11-12 years old and the experience scared me from ever trying to ride another horse. Now in my 30’s, your videos make me want to try again.
Unrelated: I was furious about there not being any water at the “water stops” 😂
What a beautiful ride! Thank you! Love Ziggy❤
What a great ride!
You could really tell that Ziggy needed it.
Another old Lady here I remember trail riding as a kid outside of Butte Montana. Definitely Gods Country. Enjoy. He’s a beauty. ❤️
Squeak, squeak, squeak 😄 Love the saddle sound.
You are a most excellent "mom." Brava!
Dear little Ziggy ❤
Donna here, I absolutely loved this video! I have always wanted to visit Montana because I've heard that the scenery was spectacular. I haven't been on a horse since I was a teen. Ziggy was such a good boy! I (and many others) would love to see more videos like this!
I love how you gave Ziggy his own determinism mostly lol. Years ago (35) I began riding again and was given an endurance horse who didn’t like to ‘go’ to ride on a trail ride in the High Sierras. There was a beautiful part of the trail and I asked the owners if I could ride him back and run him. They said sure. We had a great gallop and ‘Rice Rocket’ and I were very happy with it. Later the owners asked what I did because he became super forward and willing to move out after that. In truth I did just what you did today which was listen do what the horse is willing to do without extra stress and of course riding with a good seat… thank you for this lovely vid rehabbing one of my best riding experiences.
Reminds me of trail riding (in an English forward seat saddle), on a tidy little chestnut Western mare at Ft Sill OK. I was 11-12 and riding trails on my own when the East Range was NOT firing artillery rounds. I cannot believe I did so much on my own and came back alive. I am nearly 80 and miss it so much so very happy that you and Ziggy are providing me such fresh Montana air delight!
That's wonderful. I felt like I was riding Ziggy, looking between his ears, watching them move in reaction to stimulus, and hearing his hoofs on the various surfaces, with Clever Cowgirl's friendly, calm and informative voice "educating" many of about horses us as she goes.
Just fascinating watching his ears! Beautiful! Can’t wait for Scarlet action!
It was relaxing to see Ziggy enjoying a calm ride and to hear about potential issues he might anticipate. It was refreshing to see him take in the scenery. What a perfect day.
I love the sound of the saddle. Takes me back to when I was younger and rode quite a bit. Great memories.
This video was so wonderful. I can't tell you how great it was to go down the trail looking between the ears of a grey Arab. I'm in my 70's now and had to give up my horses after 2 car wrecks the year I turned 30. I still miss it so much! Your trail was much like the ones I used to ride in the Washington Cascades. Did many trail miles on a grey Arab colt I started myself. This video really took me back!
We are quite a group here being an elder with our experiences with horses ⾺
Ziggy is a gorgeous horse. The name doesn’t do him justice
Studman at the end definitely knew Zig had been out having fun. He could tell by Ziggy's demeanor. xD Ziggy really seems like a wonderful horse. Calm cool and collected, though a bit concerned about the stumps. I get it though, at minimum they're large enough to hide a stalking predator. It's smart to be a little skeptical.
What a beautiful day you and Ziggy had together 🥰. So great to see you getting to take a break and getting to enjoy the fruits of your hard work. Ziggy was an absolute rockstar and we are so proud of him. Thank you for bringing us along on this journey.
I really enjoyed our ride today. Thank you for taking me along. I wish I could get back on the trails but , pushing 80, that's not likely. this was lovely.
Had to stop as you were saddling him and comment on how absolutely beautiful Ziggy is!!!
I love Ziggy so much. He's such a good boy. Those mountains looked incredible. What a lovely day that must have been.
Thank you, CG and Ziggy, for letting us ride along with you! Ziggy is such a good, sweet boy!
So glad you got to enjoy getting away with Ziggy. We enjoyed the ride as well.
The only horse I've ever owned was an Arabian gelding and he was amazing! I've never been a good rider so you're probably wondering why I purchased an Arabian but I don't think I thought it through before the purchase and certainly didn't think about it after as he was gentle and sweet and everything amazing. He did have spirit of course as do arabians, however, when he would raise his head and start prancing I would get off rather than risk falling off or being thrown. Ziggy is a great horse and reminds me of Hallmark because he doesn't seem hot-blooded. Arabians have been given a bad rap and that really irks me off big time.
Thanks for taking us on a _beautiful_ ride! I have a feeling that, not only won't there be any trouble finding a new home for Ziggy, it will be hard to choose from the ... hundreds? of people who want him. He sure is a gorgeous horse, and he seems like an ideal trail companion.
I haven't watched yet. I am so excited that it is almost 40 minutes long! And on a Sunday!! Life is good! I need to make sure that I am not interrupted!! Getting my popcorn now!
❤
Wish you’d share that popcorn…🤤
It's sad that after a dude ranch is finished with their horses that they just send them to auction where they can be purchased by a kill buyer. It's very cold hearted and distressing that is the way they repay the service their horses give them and their guests. Ziggy still has so much to give. Your ride today was gorgeous and now I'm missing trail riding.
I know. It's like sending old cars to the junkyard. It's deplorable and heartbreaking.
Ziggy in his element......such a nice fella! He seemed to enjoy the outing!! Also glad you put shoes on him!! Pretty rocky areas here and there!
This was one of my favorite videos so far. Thank you so much for sharing your day with Ziggy with us. 😊❤
Ziggy is a big teddy bear..❤ you could really tell he loved the trails and scenery. Love this hoarse ❤
What a beautiful ride, with a beautiful horse! I know a lot of people want you to keep Ziggy.... but thinking about the joy that sweet, hard working boy will bring when you find his new person...
I can't wait to see what's in store for him ❤❤
❤
Ziggy’s a champ! I think you pushed him just the right amount and he was calm because he trusted the rider! You were his herd leader and he felt that! Superb 🙌
Are you kidding. You are not going to let this horse go. What a great boy he was. So jealous of the scenery. Thinking that I might have to leave the flatlands of Florida.
