Dizzy was a cowbag

[MrsMozartletoe]

Rode this morning. Was only aiming for ten minutes or so.

She was a total cowbag, the worst she's ever been.

Spinning, barging/leading with her shoulder, backwards at speed.

We've been practically in the middle of the hedge a few times.

Bl00dy stroppy mare!

All a temper tantrum because she wanted to get back to her mates.

She worked well at points, and we did have a controlled gallop up the drive (first ever!), but as for the rest of it....

She didn't sweat up at all! I did (stripped off and cold hose in the courtyard, neither a pleasant sight nor a good sensation

).

Bad Dizzy. Do you use anyhting for her cycle mines difficult has pmt at times she has agnus castus (chaste berry)made huge difference.Mares who would have them lol

 

[scotsmare]

Ooops that sounds like she was fun - not

Obviously feeling well in herself though

 

[Slinkyunicorn]

O dear!!

I do think though that she is trying it on and if you can get her into a routine of almost daily excercise (with help) it will get better - I went through the same with the BGL but he has given up now!! and your lessons will be a great help when you start them - occupy her tiny dumblood brain!!

PMSL at you having to cold hose yourself down - I so know that feeling!!!

Rotton madam. After all she has ut you throught he last few weks, she could at least let you have the pleasure of a nice ride!
hope the lessons sort out ok.

Oh naughty madam - she should be looking after you, not giving you grief!

If it makes you feel any better, I took my ponio out this morning, I am just starting to hack him out on his own - he didnt want to leave the others and I had a mahoosive battle to get him out the gate and up the lane, he desperately wanted to spin and race back home, but thankfully I managed to win, but I am now totally exhausted and my joints are killing me - naughty boy trying to get the better of his fat old numpty rider!!!!!

No. But I'll note the date and see if there is a pattern.

Feeling well?!!! She actually got told off

Thought she was going to go a few times, but she hasn't learnt that one and so far I've managed to hold her (and her mane lol).

Ta hun. I do have someone to ride her, but if she's going to behave like that then only I will ride her - it's alright me risking my neck, I can't ask anyone else to do it

Never mind, I need the exercise

. Friend has suggested lunging with side-reins or the Pessoa and gently up the work expected of her.

She's not in pain and she's not upset, just being a stroppy teenager!

She settled once we got back near the field, worked very nicely in fact, just refused to do it on the drive (slighlty further away from her friends). Ho hum.

I think instructor is around a week on Saturday...
