Wow, that's pretty bad. Maybe you should get a professional trainer on her for a few days. Did you not ride her before you got her?

That kind of sounds like a old horse of mine (Rowdy,you can find pictures of him if you do a search) he was a 3 yr old QH and he was good when we tried him but when we got him to our place he was kind of bad.

Just don't let her get away with ANYTHING, if she throws you off get back on her and show her thats not ok. I got thrown off Trigger (first pony) and I got right back on him with a severly sprained ankle, I was told even if you in alot of pain get back on because it will start to get into their heads right away that it's ok to do that.

Good grief! I think I'll stick to my little animals! I'm glad you're okay, although torn up a bit! Gypsy is gorgeous and I wish your dad the best of luck with her. At least you can still see her.

Well, first of all, glad to hear that you're ok!!! Second of all, I'd take buttercup's advice all the way. Hope the situation gets better!! Wishing you all luck!

I'm sorry you went thru that.
I don't know much about horse maintenance but you might want to request a catalog from this company.

Oh my gosh, I am so very very sorry for both the mental and physical pain you are in. As much as you love her I know that all of this must be a great disappointment to you and the family. Still it is not her fault and with lots of love and training she will turn around. It's too bad that the people who sold her to you were not honest about her personality. With an animal as big as a horse (no pun) personality is so important. I am sure she will calm down in time. Every thing is new to her, the home the rules the training. She must feel a great deal of stress and confusion and that is why she is acting out. Patience and love with a firm hand. I know she will become the wonderful horse you have wanted soon. Good luck, be safe.
