I have the most wonderfull goey little five year old mare who tries her heart out for me but can, at times be a bit of a sod and a bit over-exhuberant..
Wen't out for a hack today and she was FULL of it, which was ok for a bit but I started to get a bit fed up of the jigg-jogging and shying at everything. I have a lot on my plate at the moment and am having trouble thinking straight, but it is no excuse. I totally lost my temper with her. I really whipped her and she panicked into a hedge and has cut her nose. I feel distraught with what I have done after she has put all her trust in me. There was me riding back to the yard in tears with a horse covered in foam sweat and welts and a bloody nose. I dont know if she will ever forgive me, I cried all the way home. I know a lot of you are going to rip me apart for this but its nothing to how bad I feel. Just had to get it off my chest. Hopefully she will forgive me in time, I just hope I havent done any lasting damage.
