Hey Everyone,
I have a question. I have a mare who is 11yo (we think). when we first got her a year ago, she came with no previous history other than being broke to drive and started under saddle. At first she would run went we would try to catch her. When caught and tied, she would randomly explode and pull back as hard as she could. But she was fine for grooming and tacking up. Fast forward to this year. We can catch her fine. She doesn't pull. But I can no longer tack her up without a show. The farrier (and now me) cannot pick up her feet without her losing she mind. She is very stressed and anxious all the time. I have tried many methods but all to no success. Any one have any ideas?? Thanks!
