Today we are celebrating—and so deeply grateful for—this incredible young man. is, without question, the most reliable and hardest-working barn hand STAT has ever had. 15” of snowfall. Below-zero temperatures. And there he was—right on time.
Unbelievable dedication.
Dustyn has been with STAT for two years, and we truly hope he stays with us for the long term. He is a Marine National Guardsman who brings the same commitment and integrity to STAT that he brings to his service. He cares for our horses with heart, steps in as a lead walker, fixes equipment, builds and repairs whatever needs attention, manages inventory, hauls hay from storage to the fields—and somehow still does it all with a smile.
Most of all, Dustyn shows up. Every time. With pride, grit, and kindness.
We love you, Dustyn. Thank you for everything you do for STAT, clients, and our horses. 🐴🇺🇸
