The Story of DG Kali

Born June 1 2022 at Forest Service Double Devil Corral (USDA)

The corral auction page declared 

Blue Roan DG colt 4324. Corral notes he arrived with lameness in his left hind and was diagnosed with Kyphosis of the back. He is not recommended for riding or arduous activity. *Please contact the corrals directly for additional information on his condition.*

'Kyphosis' of the spine. Kyphosis is an abnormal, excessive curvature of the back.  His freedom ride came in June 2023.

When he arrived in his forever home he was about 13 hands and very easy going.  For several days he ignored the green grass in his quarantine enclosure because he had never seen any before.

He allowed removing his tag by the 3rd day and was happy to be gently brushed in a week.   After 30 days he joined the resident herd and quickly bonded with the BLM mustang in the herd. 

Leading, ground manners, standing for the farrier, came along in the next years.

In 2024 he stood very quietly and allowed a rider to mount.
