Horus is the first horse we had on the ranch to start out with, the first horse Shiann had on her own. She saw him at a huge sale, where it seemed everyone thought he was just an unhealthy thoroughbred and were going to send him to slaughter. She was actually walking to her truck when she saw him- He was by the fence and looking at her, holding her gaze, unafraid. She walked up to him and pet his nose. He was completely alright with being shown affection and, upon closer inspection, his skinny body in comparison to most of the horses there wasn't a lack of food, just his conformation. He had a shiny coat and bright eyes. She suspected he was an expensive kind of horse- she didn't know anything about Akhal-Tekes but he had that 'look'- and so, with some inspection she found a lip tattoo. She called one of the sale barn workers over and after checking some paperwork they found that he didn't have any records. They looked up the number of the lip tattoo and called the owner. He sounded surprised to hear about the horse- He said he'd sold him to what seemed like a reputable owner. Nonetheless, he said, sell him to someone deserving.
Horus wasn't run through the ring- They sent him home with Shiann for a mere 70 bucks. Which happened to be what she had on her.
Since that, she's found him to be very sweet and easy to train-
However he's very nervous.
It's a mystery why he choose to be completely calm and easy-going at the sale when that's usually a stressful, scary time for a horse. Maybe he understood what was going on. Who knows?
