Question

My Crazy Horse
Hi, I have a 17 month old filly who is trying to kill me!!
Everytime i go into the field she rears up in my face, turns around and Fly bucks. If I take a crop with me to warn her off she gets even more aggressive with me. Shebehaves quite reasonably on a lead rope and at the moment i have her stabled. She is trying desperately to get out and is completely wrecking her stable. HELP I really dont know what to do. Regards Erica.

Answer
Hi Erica -

Wow!  This is a really dangerous situation.  I guess I have a few questions before I can really answer this for you.  How long have you had this filly?  Under what conditions did you acquire her ... was it an auction or private sale?  If you've had her for a while, did she used to be sweet and then turned ugly?  Are there other horses stalled close by or in the same barn with her or is she completely alone in the barn?
