ever since she was given her first riding lesson at the age of three, natalia has always loved horses. one of her very first memories as princess is attending the royal ascot with her father and brother. she is the horse girl supreme.Β
her first horse is given to her when she was five β after proving sheβd be able to ride the horse alone. when sheβs legitimized, in a showy grand gesture β a technical clause is put into place that under certain circumstances, the royal family has ownership rights to the white horses in the countries. (which will remain because antonia probably wonβt remember to undo it <3). itβs similar to how they own the swans. and over the years, her horses come and go β with access to the windsorβs stables at the royal stud, at hampton court, and at the studs at sandringham and wolferton in norfolk and polhampton in berkshire, trust sheβs never been without a thoroughbred companion.
there was one silver lining in king arthur sr.βs untimely death last year. sure, she had lost her father, but she gained one thing: every last one of arthur sr.βs racing and breeding horses. in total, the number of horses is close to 50, though not all of them are in training, and most are studs or simply retired.
these are her favorite five:
hermera, twenty-two years old:
her first horse. her favorite horse. a noble, deep chestnut selle franΓ§ais, that had come from a lineage that bore world champions. given to her at the young age of five, hermera was the horse that taught natalia everything she knows. sheβs no longer a rideable horse, but she lives at the sandringham stud and has produced a few offspring.
ivory, twelve years old:
ivory comes the same line of horses that hermera does, and is effectively her replacement, but as her name suggests: ivory is a bright white. similar temperaments.
highclere, ten years old:
a british thoroughbred racehorse with a rich black coat that came into nataliaβs ownership around the time she went to college. breeded from the royal studs: as a three year old, he sweeps the derby, the oaks, and st. leger, winning all his races. as a four year old, he wins the ascot gold cup. after his extreme success, heβs retired to a stud. despite his success, his temperament was not the best.
nataliaβs first successful race horse though, sheβs eager to train more.
charlie, twenty-five years old:
a black fell pony. lovable and loyal, he is a riding pony that has been going strong for twenty five years, nearly as long as natalia has been alive!
oriole, five years old:
a beautiful pearl coat, this thoroughbred is being trained to compete in jumping competitions. sheβs promising, so far. this will be the first horse trained for jumping that is under nataliaβs care.

in early 2017, sten had got it in his head that he wanted to get a dog. in true sten fashion, what followed afterwards was about three months of copious research on dogs, including learning the majority of breeds, researching how to extensively train them, and even dog first aid. sten read more books about becoming a dog parent than some parents-to-be read baby books.
finally in june he made an appointment at a nearby animal shelter in copenhagen, making a big deal about adopting rather than going to a breeder.Β ( his mom tried to convince him to bring a photographer for publicity, but sten was against it. )Β dating ireti at the time, she came with him as he checked out every dog in the shelter. samson easily stood out the most, a little over a year old and having come to the shelter three months ago with his sister, delilah. the adoption woman told sten and ireti how his sister had been adopted about a month ago, and since then he seemed to be in low spirits. just as she was explaining how the dog rarely engaged with anyone else as of late, samson got up from his spot at the back of his pen, walked all the way up to the gate, and barked right at them.Β
it never felt like they had chosen samson as much as he had chosen them. within the hour, sten was signing the paperwork to bring him home.
samson lived with sten and ireti in their copenhagen apartment until the couple split up in fall 2018, and while they both spoiled him rotten, it was clear from the get-go that the dog was stenβs. rather than shouldering the work of taking care of a pet onto a staff member, sten was the one who fed him twice a day, took him on his walks, took him to the veterinarian. when sten and ireti broke up and sten started traveling more and staying in copenhagen less, it got a little harder to manage on his own. most trips sten took samson with him, making him a dog that grew very comfortable with planes and trains and cars, as well as making him extremely socialized and easy to travel with. samson was an extension of sten, ultimately. but some trips were more inconvenient to take the dog alone, especially when they were quick, so sometimes he had him staying at the palace with his parents and a dogsitter.Β
thanks to his dog parenting booksΒ ( and hiring a professional to help him ) , Β sten trained samson to know both basic commands and fun little tricks, like spins and getting up on his hind legs. heβs an incredibly smart dog, one who loves to learn almost as much as his owner, but heβs not always the most obedient. if he doesnβt come when called or listen right away, itβs because heβs choosing not toβand maybe the life of a prince has rubbed off on him as well, because samson has very selective hearing.
more little tids just because i love him:Β
his favorite toy is a stuffed hedgehog that stenβs named henry, though he does love a good old fashioned tennis ball
sten likes to take samson hiking in the summer, though if theyβre by a body of water thereβs zero chance samson wonβt jump into it. he loves to swim almost as much as he loves to play fetch, which is a lot
is besties with viggoβs dog pine, who sten unironically calls samsonβs cousinΒ
samson will make friends with anyone, anywhere he goes, not unlike his owner
while honey was purchased to be a family dog, shared equally between louise, lola and beau, chance is beauβs, and beauβs alone.Β purchased on the recommendation of his therapist, beau gets chance from a rescue in regina when heβs thirteen week old, and is in training to be an emotional support dog for beauβs ptsd.Β
in the first week of having chance, the puppy tried playing a little too roughly with one of lolaβs chickens and the chicken, in turn, bit his tail, sending him sprinting back to beau and arielβs side. since then, he knows to be cautious around them.Β
honey likes chance, but chance loves honey, because honey lives with louise, lola and araya itβs always a reunion bringing the dogs together. chance could probably find his own way to the girlβs house, not that heβd ever be allowed. beau and ari often take honey for the night and find chance and honey cuddled together on the sofa.Β
If you have seen Klaus taking his morning jogs around the resort, you have likely seen Burger and Waffle, either running with him, or in the babybjΓΆrn strapped to his chest. Their names are from some of his favorite restaurants from college. During the time, in his American Education Experience, he got the opportunity to develop his βfratsonaβ or this version of himself. What he imagines a Swiss-American Upper Middle Class Frat Boy would behave like. Were there inconsistencies in his story? Sure. Did a lot of his fraternity brothers find out that he was, actually, wealthy, Swiss, and a prince? Absolutely. But do some people in Texas still call him Nik/Nick? Yes, and he considers that a win.
Clearly, as evidenced by the pet names, he hasnβt lost his fascination with this fascination with consumer American culture. These dogs are an ode to this.
Whataburger, or Burger, is the oldest of the 2 dogs, being 3 years old. He got Burger shortly after graduation in his Post-America Depression. Unfortunately, he didnβt get to see his son as much as he wanted at the beginning, because of his conscription. But now, heβs back and Burgerβs never been more excited. Heβs most often in the babybjΓΆrn, and likes the extra attention and love that he missed out on for those 2 years. Given, this dog was not starved of attention. Sylvie looked after Burger in between Klausβ visits home and even brought him to visit during training once.
Waffle House, or Waffle, is the newest addition to the GrΓΌnenberg family. She is about 8 months old now. Klaus got Waffle after leaving conscription, once again lonely, but still fondly remembering his American Fascination. She still very much has the energy of a puppy, so is often the one seen running with Klaus. However, sometimes she, too, will not be able to make the full run, in which case, Klaus will be seen with a frenchie strapped to both his chest and back.
Burger and Waffle go with Klaus everywhere. Heβll take them with him when he flies to LA or Vegas (or wherever) for fights, he brought them with, thinking theyβd come party with him on the yacht between all the wonderful islands he was going to visit this summer, and they are private jet-trained. They both are also pretty spoiled and, like their father, love attention. Though, they go about more traditional ways of going about it. Like giving you puppy dog eyes when youβre eating, or running up to people to be pet and smiling when they do. Obviously, with their demeanor differences, Waffle tends to be a bit more obvious and wiggly about her demands. Burger is a little more subtle, but wonβt hesitate to make his demands clear. They are, like any good Swiss, tri-lingual, and respond to Klaus in German, French, and English. Their Italian is kind of rusty. Klaus doesnβt limit them, and lets them jump on furniture, and sleep in his bed with him (even if they have their own dog beds, too).
These two are his babies, he will fuss over them, there are secret pet accounts for them. Are they on his phone? Is it an assistant running them? Will Max or Dorian ever find the accounts to yell at Klaus about skirting their bans? Only time will tell.
tunga is five years old. he is a pug. heβs been with reggie ever since he left africa for law school. tunga is a bit of a personality, though it can be attributed to his breed. he likes to cuddle, even with strangers, but has blatant favorites. ( aka: you can tell when heβs just settling ) his other defining trait ? his laziness. he spends most of his time sleeping, if not eating. to keep his weight down itβs imperative he goes on walks. it only sort of helps, because if he gets tired, he will simply plop himself down either to be dragged or carried. stubborness, is another trait.
the name chatunga meansΒ βfighter.β itβs supposed to be ironic.

a six year old female puma ( cougar / mountain lion / catamount / however you wanna call it );Β a one and a half year old male white tiger & the new new additions: a pair of jaguars approximately one month old.
barbie would have never considered having a pet had an old uni friend not contacted her asking for help finding a place for this female puma cub that had been found injured in mexico and in no condition to be released back in the wild. after long talks with said friend and a few other biologists, she found out pumas could be domesticated in the sense of they can grow accostumed to living around humans and be very affectionate to them β quite like small catsβ so she decided to keep the animal. mara was trained with dogs and has no problems being around small animals or other humans, dani probably used her as a pillow far too many times. left small pictureΒ is mara when barbie first got her by the end of 2016, being between eight and ten weeks old given her size at the time. mara is now about 190 centimeters tall when standing up and weighs around 60 kilos.
marlo is also a rescue that barbie didnβt bother asking how exactly ended up with alessandro but it did and now itβs hers. the training with him was much harder than it was with mara so sheβs definitely not putting this big boy to train with border collies and greyhounds. he is a house cat much like mara since a cub seeing that he was only the size of a two year old child like the small picture to the right back then but now that heβs an adult and reached the full power of being 280 centimeters tall standing up and weighing around 170 kilos, there is a santuary for him in one of her properties where he stays when barbara isnβt in portugal. tigers are naturally very lazy and spend up to 18 hours a day sleeping so this guyβs just chill, but that does not mean you should try to pet him without b around βcause, unlike mara, heβs not that into people in his space.
nia and noa arenβt with her yet, they have just been rescued in panama and are receiving the proper treatment before she can have them. much like the other two, rescuers donβt have the resources to keep the animal for much longer and people near her were contacted about it since barbara is now known as the woman who adopts big cats. after accepting to take these ones she has decided to create an institute to shelter and rescue endangered animals of all kind ( mostly so she can still take them in without having to keep them as pets ). these two will still live with her until they get too big to do so though. noa is a male black jaguar and nia is female brown jaguar. they are siblings and their mama is ded.Β
the newest addition to the du bellay family: a chocolate brown poodle. it had been something freja had been avoiding but now her children are old enough to remember how many times theyβve asked her and she can no longer ignore their pleas. he was flown in from paris β lucien went through the taxing process of finding the right breed and sellers and backgrounds. many pictures were sent, and he did much of the decision making and chose him. this dogβs pedigree means it could probably compete in the world dog show ... instead it has found itself in the hands of a dangerous six year old.Β right now itβs just a puppy, only a few months old.Β the right is about how big it should get once it fully grows. heβs quite active, needs many walks throughout the day for which freja participates in one or two of. he also thrives off of attention; which lucky for him, he has two very doting children to surround him.Β
hello, i am schneeball. i am an innocent. in my past life, i probably was a savant of the Arts. especially the performing arts. Father does not appreciate my talents. this is my lifeβs greatest tragedy. i like people, but people do not always possess the higher intelligence required to comprehend me. why do they flee ? it is most perplexing. my hobbies include: scamming humans with my divine-wrought talent in the Arts, acquiring more tasties, birds ( i just want to talk! ) and television. i have never done anything wrong in my entire life, and i do not know why Father admonishes me so often. the lack of consideration for my delicate sensitivities is disgraceful.

thatβs just german for snowball because at the time of naming, kaspar was not very creative. kaspar is not a cat or a dog person in particular. nor did he ever allow himself to think he really had any time for pets. schneeball is a british shorthair who came as a gift from his friends, presented to him a week after his fatherβs funeral. they thought it would be a good idea, that after all the myriad of new responsibilities dropped on kasparβs head, he ought to be given one more. they thought having a dependent would keep kaspar grounded.Β
if you donβt know schnee, it is a certainty she will try to trick you into doing things she wants you to do by making you think youβre being compassionate. or treat you to an epic theater performance in which you may or may not think you have accidentally murdered kasparβs cat.
while kaspar is in the program, she stays with his mother.
