Re: Hates to be alone

     I have an 18 y/o mare who did the same thing about 4 months ago.  I 
     have went on short jaunts from my house, and when we went about 2 
     miles, I would stop unsaddle her and give her a treat.  I would let 
     her graze for about ten minutes.  I did this for about a month, 3 
     times a week, and it seems to have done the trick!  I also do the same 
     thing on the return trip.  It is a real pain in the butt, but it got 
     her over the "herd bound" syndrome.  Give it a try.... I normally rode 
     10-15 miles when I went out.
     Good Luck

     <<I give this guy another season and then I may be looking for another 
     horse, but I'd hate to give  him up. I do like him.  Any ideas to make 
     his (and my) life easier on these training rides? >>
