Sorry, I haven't been active here on the blog.
There has been a lot of drama at the stable after the farm owner got two completely crazy horses to the stable. One was a Frederiksborg horse the size of a freaking tower! It was new neuterd and had never been on a field with other horses, and the owner had never owned a horse before, she seemed sweet but very insecure - SUPER, to take such a horse in to a farm, especially now that the mares on the farm is going in the same herd with the geldings. Which isn't generally a problem, but if you have a gelding that still thinks it's a stallion, it's bad business
The other horse was a Fjord horse mare, which had gone without human contact in 3 years. It almost killed me when I was trying to give its muzzle and halter on. The horse had laminitis and should have a muzzle on - damn smart when you know that all the stables' horses is going on huge field with knee high grass!
The Fjord horse created trouble in the sense it was not easy to handle, but with the herd it was all good. Victor was totally in love with her. BUT the giant Frederiksborg was a nightmare. As predicted, it didn't have natural horses languages and was still very like a stallion. This means ALL horses got beat up, which in sense of big wounds and sore muscles. Even Giga has gotten problems with her lower back after that crazy horse. She constantly had to kick it away.
With all this said, I have nothing against the girls who own the horses. I just think it's very irresponsible that neither the owner of the farm had asked thoroughly enough into the new horses and the owners had not informed enough regarding their horses. It is a shame for all parties. And we've now got a lot unnecessary damage to the horse and the fence had to be made many times. So that's why I have been a bit distracted...
