Dear Keith...
Wednesday, September 26, 2007
My 7mos old quarter horse has just starting kicking. Do I punish her or is there a better way? I feed her twice a day and walk her over the pasture. She lets me brush her, halter her and rub her all over with my hand. She picks up all 4 feet for me, but now she has started (out of the blue) trying to kick me. I know I need to stop this and now. Advice apprecitated very much. (She is the only horse I have) |
