I wasnt there when she was born, i started helping out about 2 weeks after she was born. her symptoms were apparently very bad. She wasnt 'alive' when she was pulled out of the mare and it took two vets 30mins to bring her round. she was also barking like a dog my friend said and when they found a foster mare and tried to put the foal on her she refused to feed which is why they had to bottle feed her. my friend did have an older mare who became like a foster mum to the foal and she was with her up until a few months ago (she was on loan and had to go back to her owner).

i havent tried any horseman ship stuff yet, my friend does a lot of it with her stallion and she is going to teach me. Im a bit concerned about it damaging our relationship as i would hate for us to fall out! How should i be acting around her exactly. i want to keep the bond that we have now.
