Im really at the end of my tether and feel like throwing in the towel and giving up as I cant carry on like this.
Just what do you do with a young horse that has more than one injury, you have tried so hard for months, spent hours before and after work just sitting there to try and allow them some turnout, yet they are determined to gallop, buck, leap, slide to halt and you are constantly back to square one. This is after trying 24/7 turnout, further injury so 4 weeks box rest, 6 weeks in a small pen and now in individual turnout but more room so can run but shouldnt be I love her to bits but Im so tired, shes understandably fed up and I just cant see no end to it. Horse is insured with 2 claims currently running but the latest injury after trying her in with the other horses resulted in an emergancy vet visit and a large bill, I cant keep up with it all financially or emotionally.
Sorry for a self pity post, Im on a very small yard (moved there to hopefully help her recouperate) and have no one like minded to share any of this with.
Thank you so much for reading
