Performance.

Dan and Troubadour wowed the crowd with lots of
entertaining stunts. He jumped bareback with no
hands and also while cracking a whip. Dan and
Troubadour set up a steer and roped it in record
time and the jaw dropping, crowd pleaser was
when Dan, while cracking a whip, had Troubadour
walk on his hind legs on a sled, behind his
Chevrolet truck. He then continued walking up
onto the bed of the truck, turned around and
walked back down to the sled and onto the
ground!
As the crowd roared, he dismounted and had our
four year old daughter, Alley lead Troubadour
out of the arena. Now that is a performance that
will never be forgotten!
Dan and Troubadour had an amazing turnout of
support in Fort Worth! Our family and friends
have been so supportive and helpful during this
entire training process. As most of you know,
there is an incredible amount of time,
preparation and training that went into getting
ready for this prestigious event. We’d like to
thank each of you for taking the time to come
all the way to Fort Worth and for all of your
love, support and encouragement! We hope you had
a wonderful time!
A
special thanks to everyone with the Extreme
Mustang Makeover and Mustang Heritage
Foundation. It was an honor to be a part of this
special event to educate the public on these
amazing mustangs.
It’s never too late to adopt one of these wild
mustangs. As we have learned, they will win your
heart and create a bond like no other horse you
have ever known. For more information on
adopting a mustang, donating to the Mustang
Heritage Foundation or future events, please

Thank you from all of us at Dan Keen
Horsemanship including the newest member of our
family, Troubadour!
