→ What is Body Score? Body score is a vet's observation of your horses physical appearance. It is a scale from 1-9, with the scale going as such: 1 - Poor (very emaciated), 2 - Very Thin (Emaciated), 3 - Thin (very small amount of fat), 4 - Moderately Thin (more of a fit, athletic look), 5 - Moderate (Average horse, not thin, not fat), 6 - Moderately Fleshy (A little more fat than a 5, but still in good condition), 7 - Fleshy (would be visibly fat and lumpy), 8 - Fat (would not be able to feel ribs, neck is thick, definitely overweight), and 9 - Extremely Fat (Obese). For more information and for picture examples, please google "Henneke Body Scoring Scale".
Your horse is perfectly healthy!

PERSONALITY
She's a resiliently stubborn little beast, with an "I don't care what you do to me" attitude.  She isn't the type to be found frolicking with the other horses - in fact, it looks more like she's judging them half the time. However, she's extremely curious, and happens to get herself into trouble all the time from her curiosity. You know the idiom "curiosity killed the cat?" If she isn't carefully watched, that phrase would probably become "Curiosity killed the horse." When it comes to showing off, she's a complete ham for the camera. It's almost as if she knows her colouring is special, and she flaunts it, especially on a summer day when the sun is beaming on her bright coat. 

HISTORY
Cinderella's last owner wasn't exactly pleasant after her second year of life. His wife left him and took the kids after he refused to quit rodeoing, his house was falling apart, the farm was being overrun with weeds, and more than half the fences needed to be mended. He sold off his cattle and some of his horses, but kept her and one other one. He hoped she would win him some big competitions, get some money back into his pocket. One a sober man who occasionally drank, he drowned his misery in whiskey. He grew rougher and rougher with the once gentle and willing mare, but she could not please him. Whether it be she wasn't learning fast enough or he was just too damn drunk to stay in the saddle, he eventually started taking a whip and even his fists to her poor body. His neighbor witnessed this one night, finally, after an entire year of this abuse, and contacted local officials. He, fortunately, was charged with animal cruelty and she was seized from him, but the damage was done. She was terrified of humans, as the only human contact she had for an entire year was him. The rescue organization that took her in was doing everything they could, and finally had her rehabilitated to the point where she didn't run from every person she saw and even let them touch her (sometimes even enjoying being coddled and petted). However, before they could place her up for adoption, they ran out of funds to keep going and weren't getting enough donations from the public, so they were forced to shut their doors and place all their horses up for auction.

CREDS, NOTES, AND OTHER:
here you go, Karly14 ! I hope you enjoy her and can continue to show her that she can trust in humans! She's still young, so she has plenty of life ahead of her where she would do great in any discipline you chose! Just note me of any owner changes ( you don't need my permission) and give me credit for her design!
