My horse is the most placid, submissive horse on on the yard, hates confrontation and will run away from bullying.
Today he was with all his usual neds when he 'turned' on a 18 month old sec D who is also in the field. It was like watching the devil, this normally submissive horse galloped full pelt, head stretched out, ears back, nashing teeth at this poor pony. Grabbing at his neck and rugs
They are both Geldings
They normally get on fine and mine is most certainlly not aggressive.
The attacker doesnt seem to be under the weather and is not attacking the other horses
I know horses will be horses but this is completely out of character, has anyone experienced anything like this?
Could he be hungry, the weather (its wet here), would it be because the sec D wont stand up for himself, jeaoulsy??
I'm thinking of possible causes
