Over the last few weeks, Dolly's behaviour has become very odd.. We thought that due to a young gelding being put out in a neighbouring field,she was just a bit excited..but.. after days of charging round the field, she came up with a splint!.. so we had to put her on box rest. This didnt help at all and she spend all day sweaty and unsettled, calling non stop. We called in the vet, who on examination, said she had a huge folicle which was causing excess amounts of hormones and thus the behaviour.
For the last few days, we have been doping her and for a while she is quiet in the field. Tonight, however, we had a call to go down to the yard as she was going barmy!!
The gelding, that we thought was her isssue, is no longer at the yard, but is turned out a field away behind a very large hedge....but maybe they can still hear each other.
Now, bear in mind, that this mare has NEVER been mareish ro behaving like this.. She has lived in allsorts of place and travelled extensively without an issue..
She has become bargy and even with a stallion chain tonight, kt found it hard to make her concentrate. Her whinney has deepened also..
Odd isnt it!!
Any suggestions?
