Registered Name: Storm on the Horizon
Barn Name: Storm
Age: 7
Sex: Mare
Breed: Andalusian
Color: Grey
Height: 15.3
Discipline: Dressage
Personality: Storm is a very relaxed horse around most people, but more than five at a time make her uncomfortable. She is a smooth ride, with a long gait. Rain makes her a bit uncomfortable, because she equates the wetness with the loud booms of thunder and flashes of lightning that sometimes follow. She's a very confident mare, and doesn't like other horses having all the attention. Therefore, she can be quite rude to other horses, especially mares. When Storm goes for a ride, she gives it her all, loving the feel of running. She also doesn't mind the treats that sometimes come with a job well done.
History: Storm grew up on a ranch in Colorado. Her owners were older and soon couldn't afford all of the horses. So she was sold at an auction. A trainer bought her there, and got to work training her. Soon, she was competing in dressage events, her smooth poise and elegance winning her numerous events. Storm was treated very well. She had her own rider, her own caregiver. When Nina Catherine bought her from the trainer, who was a family friend, with the highest praises for the beautiful Andalusian. Nina Catherine was given her five blankets, two English saddles, two bridles, three halters, and three lead ropes.
