Broccoli
Registered Name>> N/A Barn Name>> Broccoli Age>> 1 year Sex>> Molly (mare) Breed>> Mule - Donkey x Paint Breed Registry>> N/A
Coat Colour>> Dark bay & White Stable Colour>> Lemon Chiffon Height>> Approx. 13-14HH
Personality>> Jay and Broccoli are still figuring each other out. So far, the youngster appears to be very hard headed and stubborn. She likes to bargain for what she's going to do and knows how to press many of Jay's buttons already. The molly is very clever, and very sneaky. She's also very affectionate and loves to play, which manages to keep her in Jay's good books most of the time. She's also eternally mischievous, and always has to be doing something. Busy is probably the best word to describe her, but she is already adored by her owner. Caution Around>> Can be nippy for treats.
Basic History>> Jay happened upon Broccoli while visiting a client in Australia. The youngster had been a surprise baby to a paint mare. The owner didn't want the youngster, they couldn't handle another horse, so Jay took her off their hands as soon as she was weaned. The molly has spent the last few months at Jay's mother's farm before he decided to bring her with him to his new job, knowing it would give him the time and place to work with the frisky, intelligent, stubborn mule.
Oh, and the name? It's the first treat he gave her and she loved it. So it stuck.
Owner>> Jay Robinson Rider>> Jay Robinson Discipline>> Undecided.
Personality>> This little diva demands the best, and will simply refuse to work if she doesn't get it! She's picky about the condition of her tack, picky about the weather, even picky about the type of food she's given! Don't get caught out in the rain, as she has a habit of booking it back to the barn. If you stay on, you can hitch a ride, if not, she's not waiting up for you! In the arena, she needs a strong, observant rider who will constantly watch her, as she has a bad habit of dropping her collection if she is not constantly being reminded about it. Caution Around>> Rain
Basic History>> This prissy mare was definitely raised to be one. She was born and began her training in a dressage barn. They fed them high quality food and hay because they could. The horses had the best bedding and stall conditions because they could afford it all. Same went for the tack and arena conditions. She was always fussed over as a young mare and that was where it went downhill, she always hated the rain to the extent that he owners would blow dry her coat just so would stop crying about it. With that in mind they always made sure that she was kept inside if it was calling for rain that day. Seeing as though she was much too good of a dressage horse they extended her training in the world of jumping. She immediately took to it. Though cross country wasn’t exactly her cup of tea, she moved over the jumps and everything fine but when it came to water, she would make sure that she stopped at the jump and got over that thing with a horse length to spare. Deciding that she was too high maintenance she was put up for sale for some other poor person to acquire her. She was bought by Jay at the BRRA auction and renamed.
