HORSE SENSE and ABOUT US

The January 2016 LETTER FROM THE EDITOR

Picture
I am thrilled to invite you to the debut of Wild Heart Mustangs!  While our purpose is to be a source of information on the topics of:  Wild Mustangs, mules and donkeys; training, veterinary care, homesteading and veterans' programs – we want to engage our readers. Our philosophy is community based.  Wild Horse Mustangs™ invites you to share photos and stories of your beloved mustang, mule or donkey. You can recognize a special veteran in our military dedication section. Ask our trainer and vet questions about your equines. Know of a sanctuary, rescue organization or program dedicated to mustangs, mules or donkeys? Share that with us, so more people can become aware of these resources. Do you have a program to assist our military veterans that you want to share? Tell us about that, too! We also want to engage our L’il Buckaroos with fun facts, puzzles and games. Share your favorite places to trail ride and tell us about your adventures on them.  We want to hear from YOU!  Come join us on this ride of discovery…
                                                                                            All the best,                                                                      
                                                                                Mary Lainhart

ABOUT WILD HEART MUSTANGS

Established in 2015 by photographer Mary Lainhart, Wild Heart Mustangs promotes awareness, education and respect for wild mustangs and their distant cousins: donkeys and mules.

Mustangs are quite different from domestic horses, and people who acquire them without enough knowledge about feeding, training, and disposition can unintentionally leave mustangs broken in body, mind and spirit.

With the right tools, people can create strong partnerships, founded on trust and respect, with wild horses. Wild Heart Mustangs provides information, support and resources to make that possible.

About GIVE IT A WHIRL PUBLISHING

Picture
Mary Lainhart has a wild heart, willing to run with wild horses and try anything new that she believes is worthwhile: "You'll never know if you'll succeed or fail if you never give it a try."

The "just give it a try" approach is central to Mary's life in countless ways. Over the years, she and her husband have given a wide variety of projects the "give it a whirl" name Mary has chosen for her publishing venture. She's taking her own advice to "jump in with both feet and follow your heart." 

Picture
Mary says, "Watching wild mustangs run makes me smile.
It's like God took out his paint brush and had fun that day."
Photographer, animal lover, nature lover, homesteader 

Mary says, "I grew up loving animals of every description, especially horses. Everywhere I went, I had to pet the animals. I had to ride every horse, be it a merry-go-round steed, a coin-op pony - Every time I had the opportunity to ride a horse, I took it."

"I just want to help the horses and those who love them."

ON A PERSONAL NOTE...

This magazine is a labor of love inspired by my beloved mustangs and mules, my military family and my love for nature and living off the land.  I am blessed to have grown up in a family where we did not see “genders”, only opportunities. I grew up surrounded by strong, independent women and men who embraced teaching me anything I was willing to learn. 

Above all, I am thankful and grateful for my mom, who believed in me – sometimes more than I believed in myself. She was my anchor and encouraged me to follow my own path, true to my self. She instilled in me my values, beliefs and my patriotism.  My mom made me the woman that I am today. My father also encouraged patriotism. He taught me that “boys don’t always have to have all the fun”. He exposed me to motorcycles, firearms, building things and parachuting decades before it was commonplace for girls to be involved in such things. Both my parents had a love for animals that I grew up around – for which I am eternally thankful.

​I am also blessed to have my husband, Bucky, who repeatedly encourages me to follow my heart and the only boundaries I have are the ones I place on myself. His unwaivering support and belief in me, makes me the woman I continue to grow to be.  Bucky is why I don’t hesitate to “Give it a Whirl”!
