I have had Easter 3 months now, she's 2 and a half.
Even though she's had some exposure to stables at the breeders, she really disliked her new one.

This week, I decided I needed to attempt getting her used to a stable, as at some point, when the weather is bad, they will all be in overnight.

So started to bring her and the pony in, when riding my older boy. First day, she was stressed out and thrashing around. Me thinking oh no not again!! Help!

Next ride 2 days later brought them all in, and she was a different horse, no panic, no stress, no thrashing, happy days.
Just to see if it is a fluke tried again tonight, still being a good girl, so pleased with her.

Really enjoying have a youngster, it's a challenge, but very rewarding. Just thought I'd share.
 
Having a youngster really makes you think about all the things you just take for granted with an older horse. First rug, first boots, first bath ect.

So many things to introduce her too, luckily for me she seems like she wants to learn/please and loves attention. Hope it continues..
