i am having to bit my tongue alot lately with another livery, but i'm getting to the point where i will snap soon. have talked to my yo previously about this but she is away for the week so i can't say anything til she gets back. anyway what would you do in this situation.
the livery has 2 horses mother and son (18 and 8) which are unhandlerable by anyone but the livery, the son can be very dangerous (bits and kicks ect) anyway in the evening she lets them have free run of our side of the yard (block of 4 stables and the bit round the edge of our paddocks) to get some extra grass. fine. except they don't eat the grass they charge around like idiots and go up to my mare in her stable and lunge at her and scream, this stresses her out. the livery thinks this is funny. the problem is i can't go down after her and put mine away because she is there til 10 at night.
ETA the other night when i was there whlist they were out she had gone to her feild to poo pick and left them and they had gone round to the dump bit round the back or the stables which has the old barb wire ( from when they changed the fencing safely out of the way from where the horses would normallly go) so i had to go round there to make sure they didn't get tangles in it and cut themselves. i managed to get hold of the mare and was leading her away, then the gelding charges at me i had to let go of the mare and run as fast as i could up the muck heap at this point the livery was walking back from her feild laughing she didn't even ask if i was alright
the other thing is my gelding has had he's fair share of problems and she always has to put her 2p worth in and tell me i'm basicaly making it up (at the moment he has possible damaged his suspensory ligament, has seen the vet ect) for example today i was talking to another livery about making his pen smaller because he had been running around the day previous and she butts in saying his pen is small enough why do i want to make it smaller ect. i just feel like telling her to mind her own and butt out but i'm too polite.
sorry to rant but i am really getting to the end of my tether.
