hi i have recently bought a new pony hes a welsh D and hes been badly treated in the past, i have been working with him for a while and we had started to build up trust and things i had turned him out and catching him in a small area but a few nights ago he got out into the field with all the other geldings and i managed to catch him easy so i thought i would just put him back out there as he had trashed my electric fence!
but last night i went to catch him and he wouldn't catch so we chased him down one end of field away from the others so that i could try and get his attention with food without the others but he decided to jump out of field onto a main road :/ lucky he wondered into a open field that backed onto the field he was in originally but we managed to get him back though a bit of the fence into the field again but not im bothered about him jumping out again
i was thinking of possibly trying the instant calmer out there and mixing then with his feed and then trying to catch him again but i don't no what one is best?
anyone out there had any similar situations that could possibly suggest the best calmer for the job!
thanks!
