Re: [RC]   [RC] Help, New Horse... Need Some Hints! - kit kat
 
Hi, 
 
I Have practiced John Lyons teaching and Have found they work excellent... 
unfortunatly, were I board there is no round pen. I am hoping after a couple 
of day, she will settle.  Unfortunatly, the cows are 1 feild sepperated.  I 
am trying to get the pen closest to them and the road.  I cannot put her in 
with any cows around here because they are all dairy, and there lively hood. 
 Last time I did that was with my last her(were i work on a dairy farm) and 
she thought it was great fun to chase them... ever seen 40 cows with HUGE 
milkers racing across a field.... Its A LAUGH..... BUT the milk quota goes 
down and I GOT IN TROUBLE!  So... thats a little tough.. I ALSO think she 
may be in heat, but i do not know here actions well enough to tell.... I Do 
think at has alot to do with not trusting me.  I think because she is an 
ex-track horse, she has issues with trusting.  I am hoping when she learns 
to trust me, all will be well.  Other then the spooking and getting upset, 
she seems to have fairly good ground manners.   Nips a little, but the last 
owner hand feed her treats all the time, so she thinks she is going to get 
some.  One more question about endurance.  She is has windpuffs... now i 
know that does not cause lameness and what not, but will that cause me not 
to be able to ride in an endurance ride?  THanks again for all the helpful 
hints. 
Sarah:)
