if you have a radio or something, classical music is supposed to be good, i actually just uploaded some to my ipod today to play while i groom lol you can buy a jolly ball or an old football that is slightly flat will do the same job. feed very small amounts of hard feed as it is high in energy. if you can , give her a friend by putting another horse/pony in a nearby stable for a few hours or more each day. if you cant take her out of the stable for a graze you could go and get her some grass to eat, but make sure its at least an hour before or after eating haylage. oh and of course you can spend time with her grooming which should relax her. hope this helps :) |
