Hi!
We just got a mini mare that I adore and is generally very easy to work with - easy to catch, leads respectfully, etc., but she is really sensitive about her back feet. When I try to pick up a back foot, she stomps it down or kicks out backwards (not at me), then steps in towards me as if to push me over. Any suggestions for how to quickly extinguish this behavior?
Thanks in advance!
