Title: "Megan Reimann and Rusty: Breaking Records with Extraordinary Horse Tricks"

Megan Reimann of Hay Springs—known as Noche Miller on social media and as an author—runs about 30 head of cattle and three horses, having grown up around livestock her entire life. However, unlike most ranch stock, Reimann has some extraordinary animals that have helped her claim two Guinness World Records. One of these animals is her horse, Rusty, who has an incredible redemption story according to Reimann.

Reimann explained that after failing with traditional training methods, she adopted a new strategy, which quickly mended Rusty’s once-incurable behaviors. Guinness only allows one or three-minute intervals for these records, and Reimann said that after a friend broke the record for most tricks in one minute with a horse, she decided to try for the three-minute mark.

Rusty had made so much progress that he set that record on March 22 earlier this year, a feat that actually gave Reimann her second world record.

As for the act of breaking the record, there are certain rules to follow. For example, Reimann stated color and number recognition were not allowed, and she could not touch Rusty directly. Even with some limitations, Rusty still completed 33 tricks—so many, in fact, that Megan couldn’t even recall all of them.

When she isn’t doing ranch work and setting world records, Megan Reimann is teaching an online horse-trick training course as part of the Horse Tricks Club. You can learn more about her courses and books by searching for Megan’s pen name, Noche Miller, on social media platforms.

Miller’s most recently published book is “Understanding Horse Whorls.” A second book is also in the editing phase.

Megan Reimann, known as Noche Miller on social media, is a rancher from Hay Springs who manages around 30 cattle and three horses. She has achieved two Guinness World Records with her horse, Rusty, whose remarkable transformation from behavioral issues to a record-setting performer is a testament to Reimann’s innovative training methods. After struggling with traditional techniques, she adopted a new approach that successfully rehabilitated Rusty.

On March 22, Reimann set a world record for the most tricks performed by a horse in three minutes, following a friend’s record for one minute. Despite strict guidelines, including restrictions on color and number recognition and direct contact, Rusty impressively completed 33 tricks, showcasing his progress and Reimann’s training prowess.

In addition to her ranching and record-setting endeavors, Reimann teaches an online horse-trick training course through the Horse Tricks Club. She also authors books on horse training, with her latest publication, “Understanding Horse Whorls,” and a second book currently in the editing phase.
