So, I bought Cocaïne despite lots of advice on here not to ref an "injury/abcess"
Anyway, she is a 3 and a half year old Connemara and very feisty!!
My current weekly programme is to hack one day, riding lesson in the school one day, lunge one day, and do something nice for her only one day.
I currently can't get to the stables to see her more than 4 times a week.
So the question is - what can I do on the "something nice for her only" day? I will do in hand hacks/munching with her but can't think of much else at the moment as she's quite a difficult little mare sometimes!
ie : she doesn't enjoy being groomed, she doesn't appear to like "playing" in the school loose with me (unless carrots are involved) in fact theres nothing she likes doing with me apart from eating.
Any ideas please as I need to build a relationship with her that won't involve her being told off
