She is trying to get my attention

New Topic

• brandybesthorsever Posted : 10/5/2009 9:47:13 PM    My horse when she really wants me to come over and pay attention to her she will rub her teeth over the metal stall door.  I have tried making a loud noise until she stops and have a whip and hit it really hard on the ground. That stops her for a little bit until she knows that it will not hurt her. She only does it when some one is in the barn with her. Not because she is bored. I don't know what else to try.

• akyramoto Posted : 10/7/2009 6:45:48 PM yup she's bored, and she's learned that when she does it, the human gives her more attention - even if it's negative attention. I agree with toys, also you might look into a product called the 'amazing graze' its a grazing toy - sounds like it would keep them busy for hours!! what is her diet & exercise like??
