the stallion i rescued in novembr was a sweet heart when he was in poor condition. Now that he is feeling better and sound he is a terror. He attacks any boy within reach (big or small) and has broken fence and stall boards to get at them. He is constantly runnning laps and running the fence line in his paddock and attacking the gate to try to get out. Last night he compleatly broke down the stall wall between him and my other stallion and beat the heck out of him. I thought since he is sound now and feet are looking pretty good maby if i gave him a job it would tire him out abit and maby he would relax so i put him in the cart for the past week with no improvement. ( i think he is just going to get fitter and stronger). He has very good manners with people and does nothing wrong when we drive past other horses (except nikker). The vet said he is a high risk case for castrating and that he would not recommend it, he said to maby tranq him every day but i wont do that. I was thinking maby he needs a companion in the feild and stalled beside him. I dont want him to be alone all the time because that is what is causing his anxiety. Should i try a goat? Male? Female? Try to find a barren mare for him? (dont want to be producing any unregisterable foals) Some other type of animal like a lama or a sheep? Sorry my post is so long i just dont know what to do with him
