Separation anxiety

[Chloe1994]

Any tips would be appreciated please!!!
I have three geldings on a private yard. It’s so lovely to see they all get on so well but when I try and ride my chestnut they other two get so upset. I’ve not long had the third so it’s probably early days, getting a third was to help the separation anxiety as my two Before were inseparable.

I’m gradually going to build it up so when we ride we go hacking for 5 minutes, then 10 so on.

any helpful tips would be appreciated

It really is a case of repeat, repeat, repeat and then add more time to the hack and then repeat, repeat and so on. They all need to learn that their friend (whichever one is being ridden) will come back. So it sounds to me like you are working on the issue the correct way, just more repetitions needed so they learn it's OK and you end up being able to ride for more than 10mins.
