Hi there
My mare had a surprise foal who will be 2 in February. At the moment she is living out 24/7 and will happily lead, pick out feet etc. But lately a real stubborn steak has emerged and she has started to rear to avoid co-operating with me and just generally being a bit of a tyrant. I am not very experienced with handling stubborn youngsters but hey im trying my best! Should I invest in a pressure halter which may deter her from rearing? Or is that too much for a 2yo? What are your views?
Thanks
