Canny's father had started off extremely strict with his children. His father had been very rigid with him and so he reflected this upon his own children. However he made the mistake of marrying a free spirited woman with a strong belief in letting the kids be who they pleased. By the time Canny was fine her father was nearly done with his idealistic idea of having the "perfect" family. This didn't bode well with gramps, but seeing as he needed his son's help to run the business he didn't really have room to distance himself from his son. Instead he just took out his frustration on his grandchildren. For the most part he avoided them, save when his wife forced them to interact. It wasn't until Canny started to show potential on the junior show circuit did he take a true interest in his grandchildren. All the Ward kids started riding before they could walk. However only Canny stuck with it until adulthood, even going to school to learn how to help run the family business. This earned her her grandfather's respect and a place on the payroll.
However their was a not so brief time when Canny was forced to take a break from riding. During the summer before her Freshman year of college she got caught in a riding accident that nearly shattered her leg. She needed all sorts of surgeries to set her leg back into place and months of physical therapy before she could even walk again. She didn't get back to working with horses until her Junior year.
Part of her college curriculum was starting and training young horses. Fall semester Junior year Canny found herself paired up with a two year old colt named Trick. He had been from the breeding program in years past and now had been inducted into the colleges training program. When Canny got him he barely knew how to walk on a lead. For two years Canny was lucky enough to get paired up with Trick. When graduation came around Canny bought Trick and took him home with her. Now he's her preferred ride and her best friend.
