Re: RC: Kickers

[Truman Prevatt <truman.prevatt@netsrq.com>]

My mare can get quite hyper - especially at vet in with a lot of horses
standing around.  She probably won't kick, but she will dance around and
be a big pain.  She has had all types of ground work, but is excitable.
Know what - she has a chain drapped loosely over her nose.  That keeps
her calm and the vets, vols, other riders and other horses (and myself)
safe.  

She is my responsibility and I take it seriously.
