    Re: [RC] Unconditioned horse!! - EgyptianMirage


    Hey Tammy,

    I knew you would respond!  Or, atleast, I was hoping you would!  I have noticed that, fortunately, her sweat is very clear, not frothy and white like some have commented on.  This may be because of the ability and freedom she had to run around in that pasture at will.  Atleast I have that on my side!  LOL  I will start giving her electrolytes however.  I havn't been doing that based on the idea that we havn't been doing any hard training with her.  Shows what I know!  

    She also does tend to be an inter nervous horse.  I am hoping this subsides with time also.  The girls have come to love her so!  Even with the nervousness, she can be easily handled by them but I would still love it if she would just learn to wind down, relax and enjoy the ride a bit!  I know this may never happen and so be it if it doesn't but.........it would be nice.  :-)

    Thank you, thank you, thank you!!  I always appreciate your advice!
