history
Thirteen was born into a litter of four, originally being named chase. She came from a long line of sled dogs, and had already been pre-brought by a musher who owned one of her half brothers, delgado. Life was good and she was eager to learn, quite quickly becoming one of the better out of the musher's team. One day though, there was an accident. A journey to Alaska for a annual sled race had her stolen on the way, by a couple of guys who figured they could make money on a her in a fighting ring. She was skilled at holding her own, and managed miraculously to survive in the harsh conditions. She was in the business for longer than a few dogs she knew, being tossed around by different handlers who all used her to make money. After around twelve months she was finally thrown back out of the ring after a nasty fight with a mastiff, a bite wound around her neck rendered her useless to her owners as it would cost 'too much money' in vets bills and they could 'just get another dog'.
She was left abandoned outside a small town where some locals brought her to the vets office after finding her passed out behind a dumpster. Her microchip revealed that she had been missing for thirteen months and needless to say her owner was overjoyed when the pair were reunited, Thirteen, not so much. She hadn't understood why he had never come back for her, or tried harder to find her. She refused to work, also developing a fear of the other dogs in the sled team. The fighting ring had permanently damaged her way of thinking. Her owner was of course heartbroken that she no longer was one of his prized dogs, but he understood that whatever had happened while she was away was not good and that she wasn't going to ever be what she used to, at least not with him. He made the decision to sell him with her half brother delgado as company to another musher. Thirteen wanted to forget her past life with the exception of del, so she lost the name chase and came back out as a sled dog with the name thirteen. Thirteen got back into sledding and with the help of the new musher and del she worked hard neough to make the team again.

personality
Thirteen's a very loyal dog, once you earn her loyalty that is. She is also quite intelligent, proving herself to be fairly good in a crisis. Though, her days in the ring definitely changed her and she is a lot more closed in now, she doesn't trust as easily and as many as she used to. She can also be self conscious about her two main scars and tends not to be able to relax, instead being rather alert around others, especially larger canines. Once you do earn her trust though, you'd do well to find a more faithful friend than her, she will defend someone to the end if they're good enough in her eyes.
“I'm tired of being what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
I don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
I've become so numb, I can't feel you there
Become so tired, so much more aware
By becoming this all I want to do
Is be more like me and be less like you
Can't you see that you're smothering me?
Holding too tightly, afraid to lose control
'Cause everything that you thought I would be
Has fallen apart right in front of you
Caught in the undertow, just caught in the undertow
Every step that I take is another mistake to you ”
