username: Stumpy STMP
name: Knock Three Times a.k.a. Torla
halter color: Black with eye colour borders and on the cheek strap three dark grey dots in the black section, please. ^^
personality: Torla is a bold girl, or should I say was before the accident. Serpentine stables had met with her a few times when competing in shows that her own stable had been in. She was a great show jumper, practically flying with excitement and eagerness clear in her eyes. One of our stallions was particularly taken by the spirited girl as she made quite the show from the instant she set hoof on the course to the moment she left. Honestly she steals the hearts of many when they watch her showing. It was at a show that her accident happened and her personality shifted. It was a bad fall, where her rider, one she hadn't worked with before, flew off in the middle of the jump and when falling over her shoulder either got tangled in or forgot to let go of the reins. Torla ended up flipping over because her head was pulled down with the rider's weight and she smacked her head around during that. The impact on her head was at an angle that started causing loss of vision. Once she became clumsy they looked further into it but it was too late, the vet could do nothing. She went up for sale since the stable couldn't afford to keep a non-competing horse and she came to Serpentine rather quickly. She just needed the right care, maybe she won't compete at the same level as before or at all, but she deserves a good life nonetheless. She has been doing good thus far, but has a flighty response to almost everything, or she snaps her teeth and goes to aggression. She has a fear of being in her stall alone, since it is quiet and it makes her feel extremely lonely. Once in a while she prefers to be left to do her own thing, but her stall had been modified to allow her to go when she wants to be outside. Everyone has been trying to help her learn the layout and feel of our stables, and even the rider who connected with her most has been able to take her for rides in the ring. She has even gotten to meet the stallion who was completely bewitched by her and he was fitted with a bell. She sticks to him like glue a lot and is learning to trust her rider enough to go over some bars, even though it comes with some stumbles.
is she blind in one eye or both: Unfortunately both eyes, after an accident at her previous home.
