Our Animals:

Bessy: Bessy is our only pig. Unlike most pigs, she is quite friendly. Some kids come by just to pet her. We use her for her piglets, who we inturn sell. She produces great piglets and in return she gets the farmhouse scraps!

J.C: J.C is one of our five cats. He is the "leader" in their little pack. He is not one that likes to cuddle. He takes his job, as head mouser, seriously and never stops to take a rest.

Oreo: Oreo is one of our shyer barn cats. He usually doesn't let people touch him, but if you are kind and gentle you can get close enough to stroke his soft coat. He doesn't mouse often, but when he does, he always catches his prey.

Cotton: Cotton is so spoiled, she lives inside. She never touches mice, so she surely doesnt' earn her keep. She is so darn friendly and cute though, that Cat couldnt' bear getting rid of her.

Spice: Spice often gets in fights with J.C. The two battle constantly for head position. Spice had never actually gotten to lead, but J.C is getting old and Spice could have his chance soon!

Dixie: Dixie is sweet and caring, but she is also the best mouser here. She can move like lighting and her slightly big coat never slows her down. She is lead female here, and knows it. she bosses everyone around, as well as her mate, J.C. The two produce tons of kittens who Cat sells.

Marley: Yes. We have 20 dogs here. Each has at least a small job. Marley is always a joy to have around. He never stops wagging his fluffy tail and attracts customers. He is also on our advertisement sign.

Paige: Paige is a basset hound. She is really sweet. She hangs out with cats and is a skilled rat catcher. she lives in the barn and is always on the lookout for little black rodents.

Dandy: Dandy is one of our smaller dogs. Despite her size, she is actually a GREAT guard dog! She scares away all potential robbers.

Houston: Houston is always on the go. She brings back rabbits and other small game. She is the ebst hunter we have. She provides food in the winter when we are snowed in. Without Houston, we would be desperate!

Onyx: Onyx is one of our three guard dogs. (Dandy and Taffy are the other two) He is the toughest. The only person he doesn't try to bite is Cat. Onyx isn't mean, but he was brought up badly.

Taffy: Taffy is one of our three guard dogs. He is always on the lookout. Unfortuantly for us, he is very energetic, so Cat must alwyas find some time to throw a ball for him. He loves working is more loyal than any dog Cat has met.

Honey: Unfortuantly for Cat, her mom is blind. Fortunatly, they have Honey. Cat's mom comes down to visit her quite often and whenever she does come, she can take care of Honey. Her other dog at home is afraid of heights and freaks on airplanes. Honey is brave, bold, and fun to be with.

Buster: Buster is always ready to play, but he has a more important job. He goes with Houston to hunt sometimes. Although he isn't as serious about his job as she is, he still brings back small game.

Juniper: Juniper's small job is actually just being friendly to people that come by. This little Smooth Fox Terrier never bites, scratches or runs away. She loves everyone and everything.

Max: Max is a gentle giant. He is SO big that Cat has to wear her lifts when walking him! He is so sweet to Cat though. He seems to worship her. His job is "guard dog" He doesn't actually guard, but his feirce bark and huge size intimidates everyone!

Gracey: Gracey's job is to just be nice. She hangs around the farm and makes sure nothing is wrong. she is Cat's right hand. She helps out with almost everything!

Penny: Penny is the fastest dog Cat has seen. Cat likes to take Penny for her evening runs. Her coat shines in the sunlight, but it gleams in the moon.

Justin: Justin is not very nice to children, but adores Cat. He keeps the cows in line. He doesn't herd them, but just barks whenever they do something stupid. Justin is very skilled and never messes up a command.

Hearts: Hearts is more of an outcast if anyone is. She was abused for the first four years of her life and still is wary of newcomers. fortunatly for her, Cat loves her more than anything. She was nurished back to health.

Moxy: This little girl is full of so much spunk you can't help but loving her! she never, ever hurts anyone and loves to herd the cows and horses around the property. If i didn't know any better, I would say she is the lead.

Cocoa: This is the sweetest Dachshund. He is never mean and loves to run with cat. He often slips into the horses pen and causes a stampede, but manages to get out without a scratch!

Ivy: Ivy is our top herding dog. He can get any animal to do whatever he wants. He is friendly and loves to run.

Ricky: Ricky is more of a show dog. He hates outdoors and loves to be fussed over.



Billy: Billy is our collie. He is the sweetest. He can herd, but he likes to just curl up besides the fireplace.




Sundancer: Sundancer is one of our three cows. She is great and is well trained.


Moonlight: Moonlight is our only bull. He is feirce and a great bull. He takes care of his two cows, Sunny and Diamond.


Diamond: Diamond is also a brood cow. She is trained, but not as good as Sundancer.


Regal Windsong: Melody is shy and sweet, but has a deep streak of competative nature in her. Her life was a normal one and she was nothing special. All the other horses picked on her because she was an Arabian, she didn’t know why they did so. Another shy filly had told her that at this stable Arabians used to come here all the time, they had a reputation for being snobs and having a huge ego. Windsong had become terrified by all the other horses and taught herself how to be different then the other Arabians. She was shy but when it came to events she became one of the most competitive horses there.


Heaven's Knight: Knight is brave, reckless and unbelievbly bold! He was trained by a tough rider. He rebelled instantly then learned to take it quietly. He disliked being trained but dealt with it. He found out he was going to be sold. He was going to have to say goodbye to his family and friends who had stayed by his side. He promised his mother he would be brave; and so he shall.


Killer in the Night: Killer is cruel and unpredictable. He was found in a forest by a near by ranch fully tacked up. He wore a black western saddle with a matching black bridle. They had silver markings on them and looked quite expensive. He also wore a black saddle pad. As soon as humans approached he reared at them and let out a chilling squeal. It took six men to finally bring him in. He was cooperating but you could see malice in his eyes. All he caused was trouble so they decided to sell him.

Nightshade

Looks can be decieving, can't they? For this filly it is the case. She, if left alone, can be very mischevious. Besides that, this filly is a sweetheart. She is easily attached to, and usually with follow those around that care for her, like a filly would do with her mother. She is very loving, and is soon to be a great horse.; very trusting.

Rondie

Rondie is a wonderful mare to ride, she is very young and can be somewhat of a butt sometimes. Either stopping before a long gallop, and begin bucking, or simply flirting with another equine while being tyed up. She is a sweet girl, and her gaits are smooth and enjoyable. Hopefully she will pull out of the habits soon.

[Unbridled Freedom]

Finally! That took forever to get Killer into the trailer! Carole thought to herself then drove her red pickup into the drive way of Wild Horses Ranch. The trailer that her truck towed had room for four horses. Carole had put Killer in first so he was the last to get out. He had been kicking the whole way and now just as the trailer stopped he stopped kicking. Carole sighed. Killer was mean but he wasn’t stupid. He knew he was getting out of this trailer soon. Once she had parked the truck Carole hopped out of it. She stood beside the truck and listened to the three horses in her trailer breath as she studied the ranch. Knight let out a long whinny telling Carole to hurry up, he couldn’t wait forever. For once Killer was silent. If he was human he might be crying or grinning evilly. You never knew with that horse. Carole glanced around with her dark eyes then waited for the girl who had purchased these three fine horses to arrive.

[::Sam::]

Cat Marshall jogged up to the lady she had met at the sales place. She grabbed her check book, a small smile planted on her face.
Thanks for coming. Where they alright?
She glanced inside, hearing nothing. silence. She frowned.
They are well behaved...
She promped.

[Unbridled Freedom]

Melody was fine as usual. I had a bit of trouble with Knight because he was extremely anxious but he still was good. Killer.. Well Killer he took a while to get into the trailer. Carole said then glanced at the still quiet trailer. Knight let out another long whinny then began to paw at the ground making a huge racket.
Well... I wouldn't say all of them are well behaved. Call me crazy but I'm sure Killer is plotting something. Carole said then chuckled lightly.
I put Killer in first so he will come out last. If you want I can help you take the horses out. She offered.

[Unbridled Freedom]

{bump? Sorry, I'm really bored.}

[::Sam::]

Sam turned around to see her sister, Cat Marshall jogging up a gravel path. she looked a bit worried.
Cat! Whats wrong?
The tall girl just looked at her sister, then at the trailer.
Whats that? Horses? Ugh. I got to go do chores while you ride your little ponies around.
Sam watched Cat stalk off toward the cow barn.
Sam turned back to Carole, as if appologizing for her sisters rude comments.
That would be great! I want to get them in that barn.
She said pointing toward a red barn.

[Unbridled Freedom]

Alright. Carole said and nodded her head. He quickly strode over to the trailer thinking about the argument Sam and her sister had had. Carole slowly lowered the trailer door so she could unload the horses.
First it was Melody, she was always good with getting in and out of trailers. Carole slipped into the trailer and untied Melody's dark blue lead rope from where she had tied it. She backed Melody slowly out of the trailer.
Once out of the trailer Carole stood beside Melody's shoulder and looked at Sam. You can get Knight out of the trailer then we can both get Killer out. Carole said then lead Melody into the barn.
Melody held her head high, a bit scared of the halter on her face. Melody sort of pranced beside Carole.
Carole led Melody into the barn and put her in the first stall. She took off her dark blue halter and slipped out of the stall, closed it then locked it.
Carole headed outside once more and stood beside Sam. She waited for her to get Knight out of the trailer and put him in the barn so they could do Killer.
Knight whinned as loud as he could and continued to paw at the trailer's floor. He kicked the trailer once as he continued to wait.

[::Sam::]

Cat rolled her eyes. It was just because she had lost her own show horse, Diamonds Hope, a few weeks ago and couldn't seem to open up her heart to another equine. She picked up her magazine and leaned back, abosorbing the sun.
Sam looked at her sister, then sighd. She looked at the girl, Carole, and then nodded. She watched Melody prance toward her barn and smiled. She would show them, and train them to the top. She grinned and entered the trailer, ignoring the kicking. She averted her eyes and reached her hand toward the horses shoulder. She lay her hand there for quite a while on Knights shoulder before moving it slowly up to his halter where she cliped on the blue lead line and turned him out to walk out. She walked by his shoulder, moving slowly, letting him see his surroundings. She led him to a stall across from Melody. After making sure both of their haynets were full and they were alright, she headed back toward Carole to help get Killer.

[Unbridled Freedom]

Knight nickered softly, happy with his new home. He glanced at Melody then began to munch on his hay.
Carole smiled and then headed into the trailer to Killer’s right side. “Hey Killer, don’t try anything with us.” Carole warned then clipped one of the lead ropes to Killer’s halter. “There’s another lead rope on the other side of him, you can clip that one on o his halter as well.” Carole called to Sam then waited for her to come get Killer with her.
Killer snorted and tried to nip at Carole but received a smack for doing so. He rolled his eyes and waited as well.
{sorry it’s so bad}

[RUSH]

OOC- Can I post Never Ending here..or..?

[Unbridled Freedom]

OOC: is she a wild horse? I know this isan't my ranch or anything but.. I just want to know.

[::Sam::]

Cat's eyes flashed.
Don't hit him!
She wouldn't tolerate ANY violence, even just a small smack. Carole ahd seemed sweet, but people could be different.
Sam jerked her head over to see her blonde sister standing up, fire in her eyes. It was the most words Cat had said in a few times regarding a horse. She almost smiled. She slipped in the trailer and clipped on the lead rope, completly ignoring the flashing teeth.

OINK OINK! A loud snort erupted the silence. A muddy pig looked up from a pen and made her way through the mud toward the gate. She looked straight at the horse. The animals here hadn't had horses here in so long

Sparkling emerald eyes appeared from over the stalks of a plant. It was J.C, the head mouser. Even though he was completly serious he stook to the tradition and arrived for each welcoming "party." He slunk toward the barn and meowed softly at Melody.

From far away watched Oreo, one of the more shy barn cats. A small meow was let out through his tiny mouth and his eyes skimmed back and forth from the barn to the trailer. He darted toward the barn and slipped inside Melody's stall, being closly watched by J.C.

Cotton meowed loudly and made her way royally through the cat door and stood next to Cat, welcoming the commotion. THe siamese sprung up onto the handrail and watched.

Spice agnowledged J.C's prescense, hissing slightly as he walked out. J.C's fur spiked on end as he watched Spice with closeful glares. Spice ignored them and lept up on Knight's door. He mumbled a someone warbly hello.

A loud meow was heard and a beautiful cat pranced her way toward the trailer. She meowed loudly once more. J.C pricked his ears. As did all of the other tom cats. She was Dixie, the proudest and only female cat here. She leapt forward and then finally came to a halt inches from the trailer. No fear showed, only her calm, sweet disposition.

Out of a shed came a bounding golden retriever. Marley, he was called. His beautiful golden fur shone in the sun. He knew better than to chase the cats, or spook horses or cows. He slowed to a georgeous trot and let out a small bark of pleasure as he made his way through the cats path to the barn. He looked up at Melody, then at Knight.

Paige barked and waddled over to J.C, where he licked his ears. J.C rubbed his head agaisnt her head, for these two were close friends. She looked over at Marley and whinned.

Dandy had no respect for the horses, cows, or cats. The little corgi came bursting out the shed, closing the door behind her. She barked loudly and frequently racing toward the barn. The cats scattered, except for J.C who swatted her nose.

Houston came in at an ambling trot, with a small bird in his mouth. When he saw there were arrivals, he turned his head and dropped the game. He trotted up to Sam, looked at Cotton and nodded his head. The beagle loks were cute and the cats liked him. Cat reluctantly sat down and pet Cotton then Houston.

Onyx slunk out of the barn and growled menacingly at everyone who passed him. Houston and Cotton skiddadled as he made his way toward Cat, who hugged his neck. His mean eyes softened a fraction.

Taffy leapt over a pasture fence, and landed easily. His rocketing pace made him almost trip, but he regained his steady sprint and skidded to a stop in the barn, looking up. He saw knight and knew the two of them would be close friends, or thats what he thought anyways. J.C hissed at him.

Honey walked docily out of the shed, opening the door with his paw. She walked up beside the trailer and sat beside the dogs and cats. She lay down, and whimpered gently. She licked Oreo beside her.

Buster wriggled out right after Honey and chased her, but tripped and flipped over. The puppy was still unsure of his footing and fell over often. He headed toward the barn and slunk into Melody's stall.

Juniper followed Buster, for she seemed to worship him. She triped whne he tripped, and even sumersaulted over as well!

A huge, intimidating dog entered next. He saw Sam and bounded toward her, his huge legs twisting with each step. Then, he realized she was with a horse. He slid to a stopa nd tripped over a cat, falling on his face, He growled and the dogs and cats headed for the hills. Max.

Gracey came out slowly, still recovering from a hurt paw. She limped toward Cat and lay down beside her feet, ignoring the boxer's mean growls and snarls.

Penny zipped out of the shed and raced around the barn. Her quick, speedy legs assured her 15 MPH speed. She slid to a stop, twisting her body around. panting heavily, she climbed up the ladder to the hay loft.

Justin growled at the foolishness of all of the animals and made his way toward the field to sit alone and watch his surroundings.

Hearts scurried quickly away from the animals, tail tucked in between legs. She adored Sam and Cat, but they were busy now and she couldnt' risk going near the boxer or the Box.

Moxy barked and leapt out of the shed window. She hopped toward the others and greeted them with friendly barks. She nipped them to get in line before settling down.

Cocoa waddled quickly toward the barn and sat down, resting her small, dachshund legs. She looked at knight and barked loudly.

Ivy saw the horses in the barn and hightailed. She barked at them, but not menacingly, in a playful mannor. She stuck her rump in the air and wagged her tail.

Ricky made his way down the stairs of the house to peak his head out of the door. Yes, even spoiled Ricky had to make the occasion.

Billy lumbered toward Ricky adn the two licked snouts.

Diamond, Sundancer, and Moonlight mooed and brayed their way over to the fence. moonlight herded htem and lightly poked them with his sharp horns if they stepped out of line.



Sam looked at her pets and grinned. She then started to back out Killer.

[Unbridled Freedom]

Carole rolled her eyes at the comment Sam's sister had made. She had no idea what Killer was like. They had given him this name for a reason. Carole shrugged it off. She was going to let these two figure out what they had gotten themselves into. Carole sighed and began to back Killer out as well, she gave him a small rub on the shoulder as if apologizing. "Ouch!" She yelped as Killer nipped her arm. He had just pierced her skin and it began to bleed slightly. She grinded her teeth and continued to back Killer out.

Killer had pinned his ears back as far as they could go now. He heard the dogs bark and could sort of see the boxer out of the corner of his eye. He did a sort of horsey grin. He liked that dog, it was the only one he did like in that matter.
Killer glanced around quickly with his dark sapphire optics then kicked out at the air, attempting to spook the two females who held him captive. He kicked out once more. Once he had stopped kicking he lashed out at Sam, teeth bared. He didn't bite her flesh or even harm her. He stopped near her face, once of his dark optics looking into her's.

Melody nickered to all the dogs and cats -even to the cows-. She saw the dog get into her stall and whinnied in alarm. She calmed quite quickly seeing it was only a small dog and came out of the corner of her stall that she had backed into. She walked up to Buster, auds perked in interest. She lowered her maw down to the dog and nosed him a bit. She took in the dog's scent then raised her dial once more and walked over to the entrance to her stall and nickered to Knight. She found him slightly attractive but not that attractive so she only wanted to be friends.

Knight had been watching this ordeal for the whole time. He snorted and nickered back to Melody. He glanced down at the german sheperd and stuck his head out of his stall and nickered to the dog. He liked him already.
Knight pawed at the ground and tossed his dial. He glanced back at Taffy. Knight pinned his auds at J.C then returned his attention to Taffy.

[::Sam::]

Sam stared rigt back into his eyes. she seemed to be saying: What the hell are you looking at?!? She held just as much fire, if not more.

Cat stood up, glared at Sam, and grabbed her car keys.

Taffy wagged his tail and barked hopefully, looking into Knights optics.

OOC: sorry so suckish

[RUSH]

oco- posteh hereee?!
