She is halter trained, but has no other training and is not very docile. 


Dz, or zebra(on dun locus), causes the extreme dilution that is the white.  Zch is the modifier of Dz that causes the unique Chapman's zebra striping, the Chapman is a subspecies of the Plains Zebra.

Drawing Zebras
A lot of people seem to have problems drawing zebras.  Here are two simple tips.  The ears are Rounded.  Don't give a zebra horse ears, then its just a horse with stripes.  Don't give them a horse tail either, they have a long scrubby tail with fluff on the end. 
Unique Stripes are the identifying markers, if you don't draw them then you are just drawing a random zebra with the same color pallate.  Unique stripes are the ones that merge together or split off.  Like Zigzag's hip stripes, the ones all merged together, and the stripes on his cheek and forehead.  These stripes are like the white markings on a horse, if you skip them then you're not drawing the same horse!
