A Quiet Mare ? !
After several weeks of not knowing what horse would great me each time I went to visit my Mare Zoe, I finally decided that somthing needed to be done to help her. Many people over the last few weeks and probably months have been trying to tell me that I am wasting my time with my hormonal mare but I have never agreeded with that. Some days she would be happy and really keen to work and please me and other days she just didn’t want to know. And yes I can totally say I know where she’s coming from!!! So after a chat with my vet she is now on a presciption hormone balancer and the results are incredible. My happy horse has returned and we are even hacking on our own (something that has been impossible to get her to do for 12 months or more!)
Tonight we are competing in a local Dressage competition and after scoring a pleasing 37.0 out eventing on the weekend I am keeping my fingers crossed for another well behaved performance. I will mention that I don’t expect us to have a completely easy ride and I’m sure she’ll have at least one tantrum tonight but now at least they are not so irrational. For now you can tell her off without being galloped and sent flying into the next county!
Wish me luck and I’ll let you know how it goes, good or bad
