its different to what i first thourght- trailer problems

[westparc]

thankyou to all the suggestions that people gave me before but i think it may found another problem

we tried loading her again today she was fine

we shut her in the partion and swapped her headcollar to her normal one with no problems and she stood fine but once we left her in the trailer on her own she went mad pushing on the side of the trailer and shacking and carried on when we returned until we stepped her forward so she was stood up properly and relaxed again

we are thinking that she doesnt like being on her own?

even with all the ramps open

would a mirror work has anyone had experiences like this were would i get on from

[westparc]

why did you have to use a mirror

 

[QUICKFIRE]

I had to use a mirror for a TB we had (ex racer ) when our other horse used to go out hacking we couldn't leave her in the field on her own as she used to gallop round getting faster and faster. If we put her in her stable she used to spin round throwing her self up the wall rearing, ect. We put a mirror up in the stable she calmed down instantly looking at herself, and used to fall a sleep.
