Hello Sini in Finland. Nothing changed on the place when the mare became dominant. She just matured into what she would be, dominant. Her mother, surprisingly was passive and would not move until the old gelding told her to. She, present mare named Eugenia Rex, was an outgoing filly and quite obedient. She is rarely used as until June when my Fjord died I rode him only. I really need to find someone to ride her as she is obedient under saddle altho i have not ridden her. The reason??? At 73, I do not climb as well and she is 16.1 or 2. Also if I fall off do not want to be up that high! I bred for her as my last mount, but waited too long. She is a beauty.
