over last week or so my mare has been quite nasty about me brushing her down her chest and in between her front legs.
i only use a body brush or her face brush and have taken great care to ensure that she has no mud left where her girth goes. i have tried to find the source of the problembut cannot find any cuts, scabs or sores. i've bought her a comfort sleeve to go over the girth to seeif that helps but still getting the same response.
she's being clipped next week as her hair is now quite long - do you think this could be pulling?
Any other ideas? She's been fine all summer
