Over the years, Dusty has ridden with the famous and iconic American horse trainer, Buck Brannaman, more than 20 times, and has served as nothing less than a loyal and trusted partner to his beloved Dap.
“Dusty is my life partner and has been through ragging river crossings and over mountains passes that would scare anyone,” said Dapper. “The day Dusty comes home without me, you will know my time too has come.”
Today, Dusty can be found at Alpine Mountain Ranch & Club, riding the open country.
