Val is most of the time the grumpy old grandpa, he loves everyone but
likes his own space and likes the peace and quite. His best friend is
Silver,
Silver also likes the peace and quite but she likes the company of
Val as he keeps everyone away and she gets to have him all to herself.
Though Val can be and is quite grumpy he loves showing off, when he
is taken to shows or expos he often times like to show off. But it is really
questioned by staff if val is gay XD, as he can often times be flirting with
other studs and geldings. While he is grumpy he can be quite calm and
nice to foals, never being to rough with them even when their being rude.
Val Likes Silver and flirting with studs, but his favorite care taker is emily.
He was quick to bond with her and become friends, he loves to sunbathe
and cuddle with Silver in the tall grass fields of SSR. But he has quite a
few dislikes, sudden movements tend to startle him due to his past
experiences. He also has quite a big clean freak streak, when brought
into his stall he uses one corner as a bathroom, and keeps his food and
water in another. Due to this is makes it quite easy for staff to clean his stall.
Val came from one of the auction rescues that SSR ran in 2023, he was part
of a unregistered GS Breeding Program. But when it was closed down by the
authorities he was stolen and sneaked out into the auction ring, and when SSR
came to the auction doing their regular checks they found him. Just like all GS's
confiscated by the authorities he had a microchip and a lip branding, this allowed
for him to be identified. When he was found SSR Contacted the authorities and got
to go ahead to get him out of there, after bidding on him and winning they brought
him into the rescue. At which point they legally adopted him from the authorities.
