Since losing Alfie, we are now down to three horses. Most of the time I ride alone so it isn't a problem as there are two left behind. However, tomorrow we are riding together so my elderly mare will be left by herself. She hasn't been left alone for a while but has in the past and she will be in her stable. I am hoping she will be fine, she does need to get used to it really. Any suggestions for things I can do to keep her calm whilst we are out? She will have plenty of hay and I will be taking her rug off if its warm in case she gets a bit stressed and sweats with it being the first time. May even give her some pony nuts when we leave as a distraction.
Any other ideas welcome!
