I have a book called "Training Horses, Training Teamsters" by Lyn Miller that says that pregnant mares are easier to train than non pregnant mares. Also, keeping them in light work throughout pregnancy actually helps prevent complications during foaling.
These really do help me thanks guys!!!
Love you smartpack
Thx!
I ride a mare that is pregnant for 8 months so now I stopped riding on her so that the baby doesn't die so when she will have her baby I'll ride on her again
Sarah? Were is she? Hmm Great video, thank you! I was told average was 5 months.

Autumn Hope ya. Hope all went well for her
im not a vet but i feel it is cruel riding a mare after the first 3 months of the pregantcy! imagin someone strapping a saddle to your back then having a big lump sitting in that saddle while carrying the weight of the developing foal!
