Hi all, I wonder if anyone else (particularly male) have experienced this.

I have had my mare less than a year. She's a big girl and can be quite loving and cuddly. We turned them out a couple of hours ago, and an hour later decided to rug them up in case the weather gets bad. I rugged my girl in her paddock, she just stood there while I did up all the buckles and straps. She would then not leave me alone. Where ever I walked she followed, if I jogged she trotted, run and she would canter along to keep up. She then kept walking in front of me so I could not get near the gate.

She wanted lots of fuss and if I stood still she would not just stand next to me, but make sure we were in contact.

Normally when she is in season she's a proper grump, but not this time. She has always preferred men to women, but never to this extent.

I wonder if it has anything to do with last week, when I took the week off and took her to my instructors every day for a lesson???
 
My mare with totally soppy with my boyfriend and does the thing where she hooks her head over his shoulder and pulls him towards her for a cuddle
 
She does that too Fides, she is big and strong and feels like she is going to break my shoulder but can be so gentle too when she want to.
 
My gelding is like this, he gets very jealous of anything that comes between him and me, other horses, my OH,dogs etc, I love him to bits, but don't treat him any differently to the other three, but it's annoying when trying to do anything with the others and he chases them off
 
My mare does this to me and my dad. She follows me around the field and it's lovely as it makes you feel they want to be with you :) When she's stabled, she rests her head on my dad's shoulder and won't move until he does. It's lovely owning a mare as I think they tend to be a lot more independent and so when they want to be with you it makes you feel extra special!
