Personality

Munster, thankfully, has become quite a relaxed mare with age. She still has her childish moments, though they generally just involve messing about with her mouth rather than throwing her whole (not insubstantial) body around, like she used to. She's a gorgeous mover, something inherited from her friesian blood, and if only she was a little more patient to stand still she might be a contender for halter competitions. Her and her rider, Amy, have developed such a strong bond over the years that if any other rider gets on her back she doesn't seem to know quite what to do. She still gives Amy a bit of a run-around on occasion, either while training or out in the field, but the two work together really well and it shows when the show. Despite her age she still doesn't seem to understand quite how large she is, which has led to several broken toes and a lot of bruised feet when she doesn't look where she's putting her giant dinner-plate hooves. She's a sweet girl though, who's willing to work hard and out all her effort in to please her rider and do her best.
