Appearance~ Jarod is a built guy, decent amount of muscles from working out and dealing with horses. He is not disgustingly big though, just the right amount.

Personality~ Jarod is a kind guy...most of the time. Although there have been moments where he can be a real jerk. It depends on how you treat him; treat him with respect and you'll get the same. When first meeting him, he usually makes a good impression on people. When it comes to horses, he has a gentle hand. All in all Jarod is a nice guy.

History~ Jarod grew up on a ranch, learning the tricks from his dad. As a little boy, he had a love for horses and always wanted them in his life. At the age of 15, his dad died from a horrible car accident. From that point on, Jarod made a vow to carry on the tradition of training horses and carrying on the legend of his father's training methods. He only uses his dad's techniques and has found them to work the majority of the time. As he got older, his love for horses did not diminish, only grew stronger. He does this for his dad and for pleasure.

Sample Post~ Jarod had just finished tacking up Punkin and was getting ready to go a for nice trail ride. The day was beautiful and it had been a while since Jarod and Punkin had been on a pleasure ride. Lately it had been training for the races. Punkin pranced in place as Jarod tightened the cinch. ”Punkin calm down! His voice was stern and immediately Punkin stopped. This bond between horse and rider was amazingly strong, ever since a foal Jarod had been in Punkin’s life. After finally finished tacking the large dappled gray, Jarod led Punkin out of the stables and into the crisp morning air. Once mounted, Jarod moved the stallion into a brisk walk and immediately relaxed. When up on a horse, Jarod was confident and comfortable, if safe, Jarod would ride with his eyes closed. Since growing up with horses, Jarod was comfortable around these creatures, especially Punkin. He trusted this horse with his life.

Underneath him, he could feel the muscles of Punkin bunching up and relaxing as he took long strides. He could feel the urge to run in Punkin’s body movements. ”You want to run?” Punkin’s ear flicked back to pick up his owner’s words, and he kept it there to listen to any commands that Jarod might give. He wanted to run, it had been a while since he just ran for the heck of it. “Let’s go boy.” Jarod applied pressure and gave a small cluck of his tongue and immediately Punkin responded by moving into a lope. It was smooth and graceful. They moved along the trail as one, not paying attention to anything around them, except the wide open road that welcomed the pair.
