    Agressive mare with her foal...

    She was always a mare who took time to get settled when we were showing. She only moved a few times in her life. When she was 10 she went from BC to Ontario. When I bought her, she came home after a few hours in the trailer I though for sure she would be anxious, but she surprised me, and...

    Agressive mare with her foal...

    Marty, beleive me, I thought of selling the mare, but I just can't. She was the one horse in the world that taught me the most. She is not riding sound anymore, and obviously not a good mom at all, but I owe her a good retirement at the very least for what she's done for me. We had a creep...

    Agressive mare with her foal...

    Some of you may remember the drama surrounding my TB mare and her strange behaviour towards her foal. Pawing at him, being agressive towards him, etc. We put them out on 24/7 turnout, and things were great until this weekend. Zoey kicked her foal right in the head, and broke his nose. He...

    Liberty class

    I did liberty with my two arabs for the first time this year, and I love it!! I spent a lot of time choosing songs, then taking my cd player to the barn and seeing how my songs fit with the horses....my friend just videotaped her horse, then took the video home and played songs to the video...

    She's still doing it...

    I have some more positive news this morning. We've stopped feeding her in her stall, she only eats outside, and this works much better, baby has more room to get out of the way. They had to come in last night because of thundershowers, but without getting food in her stall, Zoey was great...

    She's still doing it...

    She seems to be getting worse and worse as days go on, but we are putting them out all the time now. We tried making up an area where only the foal could go in and lies down, but she did not like that a proceeded to tear that down and scare everyone (inlcuding her poor baby) half to death. She...

    She's still doing it...

    They are in a 20x10 stall. Mom is a big TB mare, but that size stall should be adequate for them. Here is my situation, she is out on a breeding lease about 8 hours from me to a very reputable breeder. I am extremely happy with the care she's gotten, and they keep me updated regularly. They...

    She's still doing it...

    Sorry, I should have mentioned that, yes, this is her first foal. She's been around then in the past (on turnout with other mares w/foals) but has never had one of her own.

    She's still doing it...

    My mare just had her first baby and everything is great health wise. She started pawing at her colt when he would lie down to make him get up. She actually made contact with his ribcage. She still does it, and the foal is a week old now. She bullies him around a bit now, and she steps all over...

    New foal, need advice!!

    My big TB mare foaled this morning showing us no signs whatsoever. Thankfully she had no problems. She foaled out in her nice big pasture, and had him up and nursing by the time we found them (those sneaky mare....) At first we thought she was a great mom. She let him nurse, licked him...
