How likely are you to buy a horse with loading problems?
My mare has had loading issues since I bought her, and well beforehand.
I've worked with every local trainer, every person at my barn, she's gone to 3 separate trainers for 30 days and her issues are no closer to being fixed. I've had to realize that I can't fix who she is, and what she's been through. We simply aren't a good match. It's taken me almost 5 years to realize this.
So I've decided, (again), to sell her. I'm sure I'll flip flop on this as I always do, but for now, that is my plan.
Her trailer loading is a huge issue. One day she walks right in, the next she'll fight to the death before she walks in. I don't know what causes the change. A lot of it is just "I don't want to". My overall impression is that Sol really doesn't enjoy being ridden, or being a trail horse, and therefore when the mood strikes, she just refuses to go riding.
How likely is this to deter you?
She's fantastic in group rides; when most horses act up and lose their minds, she remains calm and level headed. My best, best rides were group rides. This is the biggest strength and asset.
