My pony hasn't been behaving like his usual self recently (see post on napping!!). Today he was horrendous in the school. Luckily I was supposed to be having a lesson, so my instructor was there. He was incredibly sour, not going forwards, bucking etc.. Instructor got on and thought he seems very anxious and nervous. Took him back to very basics and he slowly got better.. We are getting every thing checked and avoiding the school until we have a clean bill of health.

I called the person who shares the pony and found out that:

Pony has been bucking in the school with him for the past 6-8 weeks
Pony bucked him off
Sharer feels like nothing is working and he and pony are taking steps backwards.
The instructor (different one to mine) has told him nothing seems to work properly!

Today is the first time I have heard any of this.... I am just, so, so angry! Pony only started playing up with me 10 days ago and all of this could have been prevented if the sharer had actually communicated any of their problems

Don't know anything about your sharer but maybe they felt inadequate and that your pony was only behaving badly for them, obviously not an assumption they should have made though.
 
Sounds like you sharer is blaming himself for the behaviour, he could lack in confidence or not understand that there are many reasons why a pony's character could change. Hope it works out for you, your sharer and pony.
