I got my new horse at the beginning of november, and apart from a few teething problems while she was settling in, we got on fine. suddenly, in the past week or so, she has started being really nasty.
when i go to catch her in her field, she pins her ears back and snaps at me, and kicks out at me. she has a headcollar on, and when i manage to grab her she throws her head around trying to get away.
after a few seconds she stops, but then i can't get her to move. i've tried taking her rug off first, then asking her to move, turning her head to move her, but she only takes one step, everything i can think of! i dont know what else i can try, so i'm asking you lot!
things before she started this:
she is in a huge field, but at first she was fenced off with electric fence. a storm broke the circuit and she got out.
i have since taken the fence down, after putting her back in and seeing her get out despite of the electricity
she ripped the inside of her rug but has a new one now
