Does anyone's horse show their 'pain' to you more than with others ? I think my horses ulcers or at least hind gut have flared up again. When I undo his rug at the front or try and girth him up - even very gently and with a thick fluffly cover on it - he has a real go. When I say real, I mean teeth and ears back. Yet, even though he will try with others when they push him away he kind of says oh OK then ? Someone said to me that its because he trusts me that he is showing me he's hurting more - not sure if this is old wives tale or not ?? I'm getting in a bit of a spin over it, because if he is in that much pain that he behaves so badly with me then I need to get him scoped again ........
