dont know that this should really be in here but hope you guys can help.
thumping heart.....
I drive past the field where Chantin is on the way down to the yard. Shes stood happy as larry eating _ YAY
Get down to yard, pick her headcollar up and toddle off to fecher her in. By the time i get up the first little hill shes right at the bottom of the field.
So I carry on walking up and she notices me so sets off trotting up the field.
She reaches the top, turns round, gallops back down to the bottom, then back up a couple of times before i get to the gate. She waits patiently for me but snorting/blowing.
Eventually i manage to get her to the stable where she stands to have her feet picked out, legs washed etc. Sling her in her stable then un rug her. Shes absolutely boiled (to be expected maybe?) Well as im putting her cooler on her, i can hear this really nosiy beating, put my ear to her side and its her heart thumping away. Not just a little but really really thumping and noisy.
It cant be normal can it? Ive never heard it like that before. Is it anything to worry about do you think? I know she was slightly stressed when i fetched her in but she calmed down but then started worrying as the horses across the road were cavorting round the field. Left her for 5 minutes whilst i fed Ebi and WIllow and went back to check her. She was stood eating, no thumping noises, checked to make sure and she was back to normal???
Really confused, please help.
