For the worried posters - perhaps I seem more focused on a solution than worried, but that’s because I seem to attract ponies who need help, so she’s by far not the worst I have come across, it’s just this particular behaviour is new to me. Gathering information is therefore a sensible approach before making a plan.
She’s also only 11.2hh. I can physically stop her from actually connecting while we work on the issue. My children are 9 and 11 and experienced around young/problem ponies. They won’t be getting between her and any potential targets. Pony is responding to R+ well and is proving trainable.
I have seen a fear aggressive (towards humans) pony turn into the most perfect, loving and protective first ridden. Most people would have put her down, but we gave her a chance and she repaid us 100 fold. I won’t give up on anything until we have at least tried.
