Salvo Saucedo
The Left & Right Hand on the Ranch.
Salvo is the type of man every ranch dreams of having. He keeps a close eye on all the horses on the ranch. Nothing goes unnoticed by him. Salvo exercises and grooms each of the stallions daily. In addition, he has a wonderful way with the babies. He halter breaks the babies and teaches each of them to be tied in the barn and be groomed. The babies seem to trust his soft-spoken manner. He is a wonderful asset to our ranch.
