No this is a fairly new horse and she started having alleyway issues when I bought her (long story), anyways I have it on a high authority that this mare is a head case.  I am just trying to be patient with her because once you get her in she makes a real nice pattern.  I have a young mare that I am starting so I am just trying to hold it together with this mare until I can either fix her or get my other one up to speed.  The vet believes it I just keep her calm and show her that everything will be alright that she will eventually come out of this so I don't haul her alot and I just try to keep her calm everywhere I go.

Tx, have you checked him for ulcers? The little horse we have use to be a basket case, was even getting hard to get in the alley. The first day of the state show I tried some of the THE stuff for ulcers..he was 4th. The second round I wanted to see if thats what made the difference.. I rode him into the first holding pen and after walking a few circles he froze then started rearing and running backwards, talk about bailing off! I stayed off of him till the girl before me was running. He was really hesitant going into the alley and didn't have a good run at all. So I went and bought some of the THE stuff and dosed him with it for the finals he was once again nice and calm and made a nice smooth run. I do still walk his buddy down the alley on foot with him when I can to keep him from spooking at stupid stuff (he's scared of his own shadow..but scared of nothing running barrels). I only use this the day before and twice a day while running him.
You are welcome to try it if there isn't a THE dealer down there (they usually let you try before you buy)

What is the THE stuff called?  I would try anything at this point!!!!!!  Yes I did check for ulcers and they said she did not have them, but that does not mean that she doesn't so I am really open to anything that might help.  I just want the mare I fell in love with back!!!!!!
