'Lets waste time chasing cars
Hello, my name is Aurora. I have hugged 24 horses. I would like to board my horse here please, here at Pinewood Stables.
My horses registered name is Butterscotch Snap.
I just call him Snaps.
Here is Snaps' information.
* Breed of horse: Australian Stock Horse
* Age of horse: 6 years
* Height of horse: 16hh
* Gender of horse: Gelding
* Markings/coloring: Buckskin, three white socks, black points
* Discipline: Cross country and show jumping
& Personality (at least one good paragraph): Curious and energetic, very affectionate and vocal towards horses and people that he knows, but he is generally shy towards strangers, especially men, and takes a while to warm up to them. Solid gaits and fine jumping skills with the great stamina typical of his breed. He does tend to get a bit over excited in competition however, over zealous in his eagerness to please, and so gets distraced easily and faulters. Probably due to his youth as Stock Horses take a while to mature and, to make up for it, live fairly long lives. After a disappointment, too, like a fault or a knocked pole, his confidence takes a while to recover and a large jump might seem scarier than usual.
Certainly not a dangerous animal, just one who still needs to mature and find the level headedness that should be coming with his blood. Eventually. Has a few quirky habits, such as dancing on the spot when nervous or excited, biting his lip gently when he can hear food being prepared, throwing a tantrum when he is hosed down, throwing a little buck for his rider when she takes him out for a gallop in the pasture (though he knows to behave in competition) and, obviously, his delight in nibbling clicked fingers. He likes apples and oats for treats, likes being petted on the muzzle and between the eyes the most, and hates the curry comb and screws up his face when it's near. Really despises being lunged for too long; much prefers a trail ride with lots of horse friends to running in a circle.
My horse would make a fine boarder in Pinewood Stables,
