It's 1910: and Montana is still a wild west enclave, trying it's best to catch up to the rest of the industrial world. Real cowboys work at local ranches, herding cattle and wrangling wild horses that are domesticated and eventually sold to customers spread across the lower 48 states.

Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming played host to herds of wild horses that still roamed the countryside by the thousands. Sarsaparilla, a beautiful young filly from a herd based along the eastern border of Idaho, suddenly found herself in Montana where she was captured by the crew from a local ranch.

Her family vacillated between the Idaho and Montana border where she roamed freely most of her life with close to thirty-five of her family members, running free and enjoying her life when she suddenly found herself in captivity.

Meanwhile Bootstrap; who was captured and domesticated years earlier by Montana cowboys, had become very happy with his life on the ranch. The rancher (Mr. Fawley) who was responsible for domesticating Bootstrap, was a fair and kind fellow who had always treated Bootstrap like a family member. Bootstrap was taught how to herd cattle, and once he became proficient at it, he found that he took to the process as if he had always herded cattle. He actually liked his job, almost as much as he liked Mr. Fawley and the cowpoke (Gus) who had trained him..

Then it happened... One of the hired hands managed to capture a few new horses in eastern Idaho that included Sarsaparilla.

Once Bootstrap laid eyes on Sarsaparilla he was hooked. He'd never considered how life would change after seeing her. He had been so engrossed in his job on the ranch, that he never considered what life might be like with a girlfriend.
