Future veterinarian nails Mutton Bustin' competition

HOUSTON – A future veterinarian from League City nailed Monday's Mutton Bustin' competition at Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.

Braden Willis said he was able to stay on the sheep for a long time because he's had a lot of practice on his dad at home.

Willis responded with a cute answer when he was asked why he wants to become a veterinarian when he grows up: "I just like to help dogs."

Dressed in all black, Willis accepted his champion belt buckle from a State Farm agent.
