Anxiety & Calmers

While it may seem a little worrying if your horse has had a change in behaviour, it is not unusual. A change in behaviour for a horse could be a result of many things, perhaps separation anxiety if they’re moved away from their group, performance anxiety when they want to make sure they’re doing the right thing at events etc. There are many examples why a horse might feel unsettled and it’s important to address these behaviours and comfort them with horse calmers and spending time with them. Horses can often get spooked, which is a sign that something has surprised them or suddenly made them feel uneasy. It’s important not to punish your horse but to comfort them, many everyday situations can cause unsettled horses.

Understanding the root cause of why your horse’s anxiety has flared up could take a lot of detective work, however the more time you spend with them and observing them the more time you’re able to understand their behaviour and find links between triggers.
