The Basics Show Name: n/a Barn Name: Sherbet Age: Seventeen Gender: Mare Breed: American Cream Draft Horse Breed Registry: ACDHA
The Appearance Coat Color: Palomino Stable Color: Dark Orchid Height: 16.2 HH
The Personality Personality: Sherbet, as you can see in her picture, is a very lazy equine. She's known for just lying down when she feels like it, even when riding. Fox has been riding her in arenas before and she's just settled down. It's amusing, but also annoying. Though she's had a rough past, the only real give away is the scars she has along her barrel and back. Her personality shows nothing of it, she's just enjoying herself now. She's quite affectionate and will look for fusses if she feels like it and never turns them away if offered. She's gentle and careful. Just idle. Caution Around: n/a
The History Basic History: Sherbet was found by Fox's old instructor, the large mare very skinny and covered in welts and old scars. She'd been beaten into doing work, and then beaten for not doing it right. That was four years ago, and now she looks completely different. She's happy and healthy, and just enjoying her now easy and relaxed life.

The Basics Show Name: I Am Bionic Barn Name: Bionic Age: Five Gender: Gelding Breed: Thoroughbred (OTTB) Breed Registry: Jockey Club
The Appearance Coat Color: Chestnut Stable Color: Dark Orchid Height: 16.3 HH
The Personality Personality: Bionic is still a little resentful. Though he's getting there, he does get these fits of anger than only Fox can soothe. He's been through a lot in his short five years. He's head shy, he doesn't like trailers and he's not fond of his stall. But, he can be loving. He prefers female company but does adore Fox, and is good for vets and farriers. He has this willingness to learn that Fox adores, he wants to please his owner whether out of fear or gratitude. Fox is hoping for the latter. Caution Around: Crowds, trailers, confined spaces, strange men and sudden movements.
The History Basic History: Bionic was deemed unfit to race at a very early age. From then, his owner who had no idea what to do with him, basically used him as a whipping horse and to take his anger out on. This youngster has been over used and under loved. He's resentful and he's hurt, but he's getting there. Fox found him at an auction, going for slaughter. He bought the gelding, whom he saw potential in, for $5. He's retrained him and shown him that not everybody is out to get him. Bionic is starting to trust.
