EMERGENCY VET VISIT- Our Mustang Has a BAD Leg Injury

In today’s video we walk you through what happened when our mustang Rooster got kicked in the field and developed an infection in his elbow. We take him to the vet for his first real visit, explain the concerns, and show the treatment he received. After that, we bring him home, set up a safe pen for recovery, and finish out the day with winter chores, herd updates, and some time riding and working with our new buckskin Appaloosa. **THANKS FOR RIDING ALONG WITH US!** As always — thank you for watching! **God Bless, and don’t forget to KEEP IT WESTERN 🤠** — Jason and Alyssa # 🐴 START HERE — IMPORTANT LINKS! 👉 **Support the Mission (Donations Welcome!)** https://gofund.me/3ffcac745 👉 **Shop Our Official MTN Built Merch** https://www.mtnbuiltmerch.com 👉 **Amazon WishList — Support Our Herd & Doggos** https://www.amazon.com/registries/gl/guest-view/2UPYTFXAZ53L9 👉 **Subscribe for Weekly Ranch, Mule, Horse & Backcountry Videos!** (*You subscribing genuinely helps our channel grow — thank you!*) # 📩 EMAIL US: [email protected] # ✨ FEATURED VIDEOS (Fan Favorites!) ✨ 1️⃣ **WHAT IS A MULE?** https://youtu.be/urzZj3HpvgA?si=PvxDuxMAXnxUYT5I 2️⃣ **Our Appaloosa Mules Story- Josey!** https://youtu.be/io2OM8SdZMM?si=4AfPmjXQqbbp7qwy 3️⃣ **Our Mustangs First Ride!** https://youtu.be/zePc1ScypTE?si=Ed9DrUZKIcCD3UTL # 🤠 FOLLOW OUR ADVENTURES **Instagram — Mules & Ranch Life:** https://www.instagram.com/mtn_built **Facebook:** https://www.facebook.com/people/Mtn-Built **Instagram — Hunting:** https://www.instagram.com/mtn_built_hunts **YouTube — MTN Built Hunts (Our Hunting Channel):** https://www.youtube.com/@mtnbuilthunts # 🐴 RELATED PLAYLISTS *(Perfect for binge-watching!)* **🐴 Mule Playlist:** https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmclj-movwxtFes1JLvs8zwa2wV8l5EA2 **🏕️ Backcountry Adventures:** https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmclj-movwxsI3iqdxyqYsgcXYS2VqHPd **🐓 Homesteading Playlist:** https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLmclj-movwxv4wi-CZJHY6_ZviS57Vn7B **🦌 Hunting Channel (MTN BUILT HUNTS):** https://www.youtube.com/@mtnbuilthunts # 🐴 TRAIN WITH TY EVANS — MULEMANSHIP **Website:** https://www.tsmules.com **Ty Evans YouTube Channel:** https://www.youtube.com/@tsmules # 🏕️ BRANDS WE LOVE & USE Roamin Home Wall Tents — https://www.roaminhome.com Cafe Mule Coffee *(code MTNBUILT for 15% off!)* — https://cafemule.com Murdoch’s Ranch & Home Supply — https://www.murdochs.com # 📍 VIDEO CHAPTERS 0:00 – What Happened to Rooster?
