I posted last week about my horse being strong and bolting in canter. Anyway i had my suspicions about her back and i managed to get in touch with an old owner. (ive had joy a yr). She told me that joy had been retired. She had started bolting on rides - one which resulted in a bad acicident. The vet suspected kissing spine. She was GIVEN to the stud i brought her from as a brood mare never to be ridden again!.
Im gutted just goes to show you cant trust anybody, theses people seemed like such professional people and they ran a stud. They did bsja with poor joy!. Not sure what im going to do now, im at a total loss. I considered having vet out, think she would be ok as a light hack but with kissing spine horses can go from being really calm to explosive and i cant risk it. Going to have her back looked at by a lady i know, but other than that im at loss really xx
