this is my beautiful horse ♥
Barn Name: Diamond
Show Name: Diamond In The Rough
Age: 13
Breed: Mustang
Coat Color: Tobiano Paint
History: Diamond originally comes from the west coast. He was born in the wild to a rather large herd and a loving mother. Like all young stallions though, when he became of age (two years), he found himself promptly kicked out of his herd by his father. After a few months, he soon found himself with a bachelor herd, and it remained that way for a while. Since their small little band of brothers was still so small, they were able to elude many of the BLM mustang round ups until a few years later, luck ran out for Diamond and he found himself caught in one of the BLM round ups. Sent out to the Wild Horse Inmate Program (WHIP), he was handled in a Colorado Correctional Facility as part of their horse and inmate program. There, Diamond was gelded, halter, and saddle broke as well as grew accostumed to human companionship. Perhaps never having his own herd did him some good when it came to human bonding, because he took rather well to his new life style. One day, a girl from what the horse viewed as a faraway land came to view him, and even though Diamond didn't always understand the human language, he sensed something different about her. So he showed up a little in his pen and did his best to make a good impression, and the sellers did the same as well (because those shipping fees would certainly earn them a lot). It didn't take much before the girl was won over, and Diamond found himself a home. That girl turned out to be Ashlee Grace, and through the family turnmoil, they have stuck by each other thick and thin, plus, give hte occasional pony ride to the baby brother.
Gender: Gelding
Personality: Diamond's overall a good horse. He never truly carried over any bad personality traits from being wild and unbroken all of those years. Probably deep down inside, he was just a horse waiting to be loved. Diamond truly loves Ashlee, and will do almost anything for her unless he senses danger or something bad could come from something. Sitll, he's always up for the race against another horse. He likes to follow her around like a giant dog when they're in the round pen, and other times, he just likes to play a good game of tag. And if there are any treats involved, Diamond tens to be a big pushover. He'll always have a heart of gold, and even though Ashlee might not understand some times, he'll always be there for her and he'll understand her more than any human ever could.
Strengths: Trail Riding, 'Rugged riding', Gaming
Weaknesses: Fancy showman ship (Mostly English riding)
Height: 14.2 Hands
Other: Western Style Horse
