So I disappeared from Petz for a while - I couldn't find anything that interested me. I'm in the process of getting rid of most of my PKC petz [which if you had asked me before, I would've never done rofl] and am doing a major cleanout of OBs. BUT DON'T WORRY Loki will never leave lololol. He's like if you have superglue stuck to your face - it's there FOREVER.
Then Artemis was super cool and gave me two horses out of nowhere! So then I joined SS and GASP, I found a reason to keep playing Petz lol. I'm such a looser.
Anyway... these are my favorite poniessss. The rest you can find in the "Hard Tack" link in my sig <3
Version 1s
Seabiscuit
Not gonna lie, this horse is my favorite of them all. In the 1930s, Seabiscuit was the most popular West Coast horse of the decade and set track records in almost all of his races. In 1938, he was pitted against War Admiral, the Triple Crown winner, in a match race that has been called "The Horse Race of the Century." He beat the son of Man o' War by 4 lengths and earned the Horse of the Year award for it. He died at 14 of an apparent heart attack on the Howard Farm.
* * * * *
Ruffian
Definitely my favorite thoroughbred filly everrr. She was undefeated in all 10 of her starts, equaled or broke track records and was always at the front of the pack. In 1973, she was pitted in a match race against the Derby winner of that year, Foolish Pleasure and with a quarter mile to go, broke down on the track. She ran another 100 yards on a shattered leg, but after ripping off her cast post-surgery, she was euth'd. Theirs was the end of all match races in the United States.
* * * * *
Seattle Slew
In 1977, he became the 10th horse to sweep the Triple Crown AND is the only undefeated one at that. I MEAN, HOW SEXY?! In 2002, he was the only living Triple Crown winner after Affirmed, but died later that year at age 28.
* * * * *
Secretariat
Okay so he's prettiest of all my horses rofl. Secretariat swept the Triple Crown in 1973, the same year Ruffian's ill-fated match with Foolish Pleasure. His records at the Belmont and Derby still stand to this day and no one has ever broken the 31 length margin he won at the Belmont. At 19, the superstar stallion contracted laminitis and was euthanized.
* * * * *
Tahki II
I originally had another appy named Tahki, but due to a renaming error, I ended up deleting her, a derp .____.;; That actually really pissed me off and upset me, even if it is pixels, so I ended up rehexing her off another appy base I had made. I changed a few things around, like her color and spot pattern, buttt she is still just as sexy and sweet as everrrr.
Version 2s
Misty & Stormy
This pair are hexed after the famous Chincoteague ponies Misty and Stormy, from the books "Misty of Chincoteague" and "Stormy, Misty's Foal." Both of them are now stuffed and on display at the Chincoteague Pony Farm on Chincoteague; Misty originally dropped 3 foals, but her first two died after breaking into a nearby cow pen, eating their feed and dying from it. Stormy's bloodline is the one that continued the Misty legacy and her kiddos are still part of the Chincoteague Pony League that performs on the island and across the country. Anddd I will totally buy one one day and it will be awesome rofl.
Lay Me Down
Hexed by Moo! I read "Chosen By A Horse" a few months back and oh god... so sad :[ The rescued mare in the memoir, Lay Me Down, had been the sweetest mare after all she had gone through, and seriously, the ending KILLED ME DEAD. I haven't bawled at a book like that in yearssss. So I felt the need to have a Lay Me Down in my game and Moo was awesome enough to hex me one the next day. She's such an adorable horse and loves to just sit so pretty and watch the hand do whatever, haha.
* * * * *
Bootjack
Adopted from Brynn! lol I feel like I got super lucky for having her; we had to write a story with her as part of the application and I thought mine was hardcore suck, haha. Bootjack in Brynn's novel is supposed to be quite the hellion, but this horse is pretty much the opposite - she's all love and flowers and so far hasn't kicked any horsey ass. Maybe if I introduce her to Loki the rage will come out; everyone hates poor Loki...
Ungar
Adopted from Mak. I was sooo lucky to get this guy - Mak showed him and a few other horses off a while ago, then BAM put them up for adoption, haha. I didn't think my app was anything but yeeeey I got a pretty boy <3 He gave me a great in-hand pose while trying to get site pics... except facing the wrong way .___.; Wat a douche.
* * * * *
Holly
Adopted from Beach! I am all about appies right now and for some reason, the tan and blue is working for me. This horse is so sweet - she loves everything everrr, haha.
* * * * *
Bose
This boy was hexed and upgraded by Haubing for a horse swap that was held not long after I joined SS. He has sleepy sickness so I doubt I'll be able to show him at all... but it's ok cause he's cute. AND HE HAS A WEE WEE. I only have female V2s, so you see why I am amused.
