Name: Sky
Show Name: Night Sky Starshine
Age: 3
Gender: Mare
Wild or Tame: tame
Breed: Akhal Teke
Height: 15h
Physical Description: Sky is a slender, lightly-built chestnut. Her coat has a sandy, metalic look to it. She has long legs and iron-tough hooves. Her conformation is slightly above the bit, typical for her breed, and overall her body has a stream-lined appearence.
Personality: Sky has a cooler temperment than most Akhal-Tekes, but she still has a tendency to "run hot" without enough exercise, or when she is over-stimulated. Part of this is just due to her youth. She has a competitors personality and a strong desire to perform. She cannot stand being kept in a stall constantly, or not played with and trained. She is the kind of horse that needs to be kept busy, or she'll get into mischief. She has a mind of her own.
History: Sky was desert-bred, but her mother was shipped over to America before Sky was foaled. Her mother told her tales of roaming the desert, free of human will except for the few times she was shown to potential buyers, or brought in to be bred. She told her tales of her "special human" a young woman who cared for the herd, and who would occasionally tie a rope to Sky's mother's halter and the two of them would gallop through the desert. Sky was sold once she was weaned, to a man who planned to use Sky for a broodmare. Sky's disposition wasn't suited to this however, and the man realized it. So now she's up for sale again, hoping to meet her own "special human".
If tame, discipline: Currently no specialty, but will excel in either Endurance or Long Distance racing.
