sinead's story
 
 
Sinead was owned by a young girl in West Malling She was known to kick, bite and buck. She ruled the yard! When Roy went to pick her up everyone was hiding behind stable doors. She didn't like being in a stable and would threaten us all over the door.

......we took no notice of her..... so she pulled some more faces and threatened us some more...... and we still took no notice.

Eventually she settled down and decided to behave. She still prefers
to be out, but has much better stable manners these days. We later found out that Sinead had been involved in an accident with a dustbin lorry – which had apparently hit her back legs. She was seen by Gavin frequently and she also had a new saddle fitted. A client called Sue fell in love with her and bought her – and again she still works in the riding school and is very popular with children and adults alike. Our Yard Manager rides her in dressage lessons every week and Sinead is improving greatly.

Sinead hangs around with Norman and Indie in the field. She loves having a massage and is really happy here at Willow Farm, she has a loving owner who dotes on her – a far cry from her kicking and biting days. It just goes to show how a little understanding, patience and some expert advice can help to bring a horse around.
