...Donté...
Name: Donté (Don-Tay)
Height: 15.2hh
Breed: Carthusian
Age:7
Gender: Stallion
History: Donté originated in Spain. He was bred to be used as a stud, producing a continious blood line aswell as keeping the rare breed of Carthusian alive.The Carthusian is not a nesasarillay separate breed from the Andalusian, but it is a distinct side branch of that breed and usually considered the purest strain remaining. This is one of Spain's most prestigious lines of the Spanish horse and has one of the oldest stud books in the world. The Zamora brothers, who had mares of this breeding, purchased an old horse named El Soldado (Donté's Sire). They bred him to two mares. The resultant offspring were a colt and a filly; Donté being the colt and Ellarenzo the filly. Donté was a dark gray, considered to be a perfect size and coloured horse. He produced many outstanding offspring, which were purchases by the breeders of Jerez. Sent over seas Donté's crate was marked wrong sending him to the wrong country. When he arrived the animal import centre was unable to contact the original breeders. After a year the breeders had still not claimed him and the property in which he was staying couldn't afford to keep such a high maintainance stallion. They tried a last time to get in contact but still no response was given so they let him free into the wild. Ironically a week after his release the property reseived a call from the Spanish breeders wanting their highly expensised stallion immediately sent back. Due to the quality of Donté's breeding the Spanish breeders sued the Shipment company as well as the Animal import centre. Fortunately Donté bred to some the the worlds most renowned Carthusian mares, producing outstanding high quality colts and fillys. 3 years on and donté is still roaming free amongst the plains searching for a new life. (Sorry it's a little rough but, I'm so tired. Haha)
...Mercer...
Name: Magalargas Mercer
Height: 15hh
Breed: Mangalarga Marchador
Age:6
Gender: Mare
History:
In 1801, fearing Napoleon’s invasion, the King of Portugal transferred his court, family and select Andalusian stallions to Brazil. He later gave one of these Royal Alter stallions, Sublime, to Francisco Gabriel Junqueria, the Baron of Alfensas.
Francisco Gabriel Junqueira , decided to start a breeding experiment mixing his imported Royal Alter stallions with the common horse stock currently in his farm. The common stock was a mix of Barb horses and other breeds that came to Brazil by the time of its colonization. The result of the Alter x colonial horse cross mix was a smooth-gaited, attractive horse. The Baron called these horses Sublimes.
Junqueira then sold some of the Sublimes to a friend who had a country farm up north. The farms name was Mangalarga, and the owner used the Sublime horses when traveling to the capital. In town, people noticed the smooth-gaited, attractive looking Sublimes and started to call them Mangalarga.
The Mangalarga soon became a popular demand by locals. Because of the rarity and limitations on the population of the breed the farm was unable to provide them to the locals.
With the invasion of Napoleon, The Mangalarga Farm was forced to migrate to a safer country. Two-hundred years have passed since the migration of the Mangalarga Farm and they are still currently in business. Unfortunately The Mangalarga Farm doesn’t sell their horses locally so when their farm becomes over populated they rather set multiple horses free into the wild.
Mercer’s Dam and Sire where bred in captivity but were the lucky ones that were set free by the Mangalarga Farm. Mercer was born into a herd but made the decision to leave the herd a few months ago. She loved her life in a herd but decided she’d rather explore and experience things for herself. Currently alone she seemed to have avoided crossing paths with a stallion. She had run into multiple mares but not yet a stallion.

Yes, I'm a country fanatic.
But I listen to others, too.
