Well she wandered about around me at the gate but refused to be caught. She then stole the Apple I'd kindly brought for her as a reward, then bleeding well cantered off with it!
When I walked out in disgust and back to the yard,she called annoyed from the hedge. Later I went back in prepared to give her another chance but again she circled me refuseing to be caught. Then I approached her with the offer of treats as I was starting to get frustrated and desperate, I have work to get too tonight I muttered as she snatched them and promptly trotted off bucking and yahooing as before. Back she came at the clang of the gate, it had started to get dark and I thought I'd cracked it, she was coming in........but then she got down 3ft away from me and quietly in her own time.......rolled!?
Eventally, we did it and she trotted in like a naughty kid. I'm guessing the weather today which has been really nice and the days getting brighter and longer are turning her into a springtime pony. I'd said to OH this afternoon, I bet she'll give me some trouble tonight and I was right.
Anyone else's horse changing yet?
