Headstall Natural
My horse has started rearing when I trot her in circles on a lead rope (from the ground)?
Today I just went out to the paddock to give her a bit of a walk and trot around by leading her as I don't want to ride her until her teeth are fixed and gained some more condition, and was fine until I trotted her in a circle with the lead rope. She was ok for a bit, and then she started flicking her head a bit and then partially reared. This happened 3 times, and am wondering what her cause of pain was. This is most unlike her as she is normally a very placid and quiet horse. Her teeth need fixing, and I am wondering whether the halter pressed painfully on her jaws when going in a circle. I don't see how though, because she has a rope halter, rather than a headstall which pulls the whole head. She was fine when I just ran straight with her trotting beside me afterwards. Her legs seemed fine as all legs went evenly in the trot, though when she walks her hind feet kind of drag. Is this natural? Could she have arthritis? If so, how do you tell? I should probs get the vet out.
This could eb due to excitement as I know my horse tends to fling himself around on the lunge.
She may feel when you turn her on a circle that she is getting freedom and just jumping and skipping for fun.
If you are seriously worried tho I would get the vet. its unlikely something is hurting her as it would hurt during walk aswell.
have you got a lunge line? I'd try lunging her and I bet with the longer rein she will have abit of a play and then calm down.
How often does she go out in the field she may of thougth she was going out.
I definately think excitement as if it was pain or maliciousness she would do it other than in trot on a circle
