Help! Horse is seriously spooky and parelli seems to be making her worse?

Tinkerbee i dont know i think she may have been. I bought a cowboy hat to try and make the parelli more "authentic" but whenever i wear it near her she goes mad so i wondered if this shows she was abused by a man in the past?

She may just have good fashion sense. See what she's like with a beret?
 
By the way you haven't said how old this horse is - is it actually broken yet?

Is there any possible chance you could move to an area where there are no trees?

The Shetland Isles might be worth a try :D
 
I was wearing half chaps as i think full chaps make my ass look big but i can give it a shot i suppose??

And silverspring i`m not trolling, its people who are suggesting these ideas to me! The only think i have tried is the Parelli, the rest are just ideas from other people i havent tried them! I`m just confused and need some support/ideas :(
 
You could try blindfolding her, to walk past the trees, then take it off obviously, but should be ok for half a mile or so. Worth a try?
 
I'VE GOT IT!

Were you speaking in that hideous american accent? If not, bobs your uncle and fannys your aunt thats your problem. Its your voice thats spooking her!
 
Well my YO told me to put a slight american twang on as apparently horses can uinderstand it better? But will try normal voice tomorrow. And my cowboy hat is very "cool" i got it shipped it over from America and its the same make as the one Pat has got, apparently he`s endorsing it now so its genuine!

Have had my horse for 3 weeks now, i got her from the sales which i know wasnt the best idea but i just couldnt resist her :( Shes rideable and seems to go quite nicely but does have a habit of bucking.

She is so spooky at everythiing though and trees seem to be her personal nightmare. Everytime she goes near one she just freezes and then tries to rear up. Even a twig on the ground sets her off. My YO recommended doing parelli with her which from watching videos on youtube seems to be seem just some cowboy running around with a big whip making them stand on boxes and something with big excercise balls? But being open minded i gave it a go and at first it seemed to work but now shes just getting worse :( Whenever i go near her with the stick she goes mental and she wont let me near her now :( My YO has got a stallion that she said i can breed from so i was thinking of this as a back up plan if needs be? My other friend suggested using drawreins on her to try and keep her head down so she she`ll be focusing more on that rather than the trees etc and someone else suggested using blinkers? Any help appricated as i`m at the end of my tether and regretting buying her now :(

GReat idea breed another just the same im sure its going to be just what everyone wants!!! ..
 
Ok, I understand your problem. The problems you are having can generally all be sorted by slapping your horse in the face with your hand several times whilst simultaneously pulling on the lead rope so that your horse can't get away. With this kind of treatment why would the horse want to misbehave - surely it will want to keep coming back for more of the same! And I think we would all want one of your mare's foals as she sounds to die for!
