Personality>> Drew is a smug sarcastic ass in all honesty. He likes to push his limits but learns them quickly. He doesn’t show his emotions most of the time if at all. He only expresses them to animals like dogs and horses. He also loves children, they can be anywhere from newborns to eighteen which isn’t a usual thing for the persona that Drew takes on, but he likes to defy it sometimes. Even though it is a large gap he loves knowing that he can teach them something and usually opens up to them more so than people his own age. At heart he is a giant kid and deep down believes that kids will get him more than older people.
He is the bad boy that every parent does not want their little girl with; but in a grown man form. He has a hard outer shell to this man, but a soft swishy inside that is loyal, kind, understanding, and emotional. It takes a patient person to break the shell. Speaking of patience Drew has a ton of it; it derives from working with young horses when back on his parents’ farm. Drew is a whole mismatch of personality traits that work with and against each other for the best.

Appearance>> Drew is defiantly a manly looking man. He always wears some sort of facial hair. The hair on his face and head are the same dark brown. His eyes are a beautiful green/grey with a blue tint to them. The thirty-eight year old rarely fixes his hair to do anything; he wakes up and goes so it is usually messy and going in a few different ways. He stands at six foot two inches which he is perfectly happy with. Even though he is getting older with every day he still is muscular and takes pride in keeping himself in shape. Drew is broad in the shoulders and narrows out at his hips. As for his closet options, they don’t range a whole lot. In his wardrobe it pretty much contains work clothing; jeans, t-shirts, sweatshirts, boots and his workout clothing; sneakers, shorts, and more t-shirts.

But I’ve gotta let it go
Medical History>> Fallen of horses giving him a lot of broken bones, ex; arms, ankles, wrists, fingers, hands.
Criminal History>> Only a few times with speeding.
Full History>> Drew grew up on a small horse ranch in the mountains of South Carolina with two brothers and a sister. All of which grew up riding horses, western, of course. Drew’s parents were both involved with animals, his mother an animal rescuer, which is where most of the ranch stock horses came from and his father a farrier and horse trainer for his ranch and neighboring farms and ranches. They had a few horses with good pedigree and were used for breeding resulting in more income for the family with the sale of foals.
John and Ethan, Drew’s older brothers were the star athletes of the family, but Drew and Hanna, his sister, were the stars of the family as they took to riding horses like nothing. They competed in rodeos in South Carolina and took home a few titles. Drew loved to help train horses with his dad and picked up on a lot of things while doing so. His father didn’t willingly give out information to his son; Drew had to work for it. While training with his father he formed bonds with two young geldings that his mother had rescued from being abused. He trained with a helping hand from his father to be able to run in rodeos and win some of them.
Hitting the age of thirty he decided that it was time to get his act together. He wasn’t going to be able to run in rodeos his whole life and needed a plan. He went to shadow an experience horse trainer and riding instructor for about five years. Even though four years seemed like a long time, Drew learned a lot with it. That was that and that pushed him over the edge to become an actual instructor. He had a great job for a local riding stable that focused on western riding and it took him seven years until he found a job in Kentucky; a beginner western riding instructor. He took it and packed up his stuff, his dog, and two geldings.
We found love in a hopeless place

Species>> Canine
Breed>> Labrador Retriever
Registry>> N/A
Personality>> Cassie is an amazing dog. She listens extremely well and is gentle around everyone. She has the key traits of a Labrador Retriever. Cassie is loyal, sweet-natured, outgoing, and willingness to please everyone and anyone. As almost every dogs does, she loves attention and is pretty much just an oversized lap dog.
History>> Cassie was born in South Carolina on Drew’s parents’ farm. She was to be trained as a hunting dog to help bring in the game birds. After a few times out to train Cassie proved to her trainers that she wasn’t going to be a very good hunting dog. Drew decided that he would take her in as he had no interest of hunting game birds. Cassie has lived with him since, occasionally she goes back to visit her brothers and sisters who are used for hunting dogs.
