My Horse has NPS - Naughty Pony Syndrome! Please tell me Im not alone!

[Winklepoker]

I have been away for my birthday this weekend and my pony was really naughty! She had her back looked at on Wednesday so didnt really have any work between then and me going away and she was a naughty prancey pony! I got back yesterday and brought her in with no prancing or fuss even had a bath! lunged her and turned her out this morning and she was a good pony again!!

Although she did stand up the previous week with me when being led in (hence back/teeth check)which is totally out of character. She is just 5 - Full TB and clearly feeling very well at the moment! She is on half conditioning mix, half chaff, oil, garlic and magnitude twice a day.

Any suggestions as to why? Any other feeding advice?:s

Age shes still really a baby so not surprising she does the odd thing now and again, also weather, I knew yesterday the grass was finally coming through with the exuberance of my warmblood, and if you were away maybe she was testing whoever was looking after her, I wouldnt worry too much unless she carries on with the behaviour.
