Why Mares Are Better Than Geldings (and yes, this is absolutely my biased opinion) ❤️ 🐎

There’s a pattern in the horse world that mirrors the human one a bit too neatly.

People don’t like mares for the same reason they don’t like strong women.
They’re direct.
They know what they want.
They have boundaries that aren’t negotiable just because you asked 4 times.

Call a mare “moody” and half the time you’re just describing a horse who refuses to tolerate behaviour that doesn't serve her.

Watch a herd for long enough and you’ll notice it’s the mares who stitch the whole thing together. They manage space, negotiate tension, hold social order, and they do it with very little fuss.

Geldings are lovely. They can be the reliable, soft-hearted labradors of the equine world. I adore them.
But mares… mares operate on another level entirely.

You don’t get anything for free, and that seems to be what rattles people. To work with a mare, you have to be clear, respectful, and emotionally tidy.
She will not pretend for you.
She will not humour you.
She will not let you blag your way through a session while you’re thinking about your Tesco shopping list. ✨️

And that is exactly why they’re my favourite.

A mare makes you accountable.
She makes you present.
She makes you honest about who you are and how you show up.

People say mares teach patience.
I think they teach you how to communicate with someone who knows her own mind.

And when a mare with that kind of intelligence chooses you?

That is not luck.
That is a privilege.

EHV-1 has everyone in the horse world on high alert right now, and understanding the facts can help bring clarity instead of panic.

What many people don’t realize:

EHV-1 spreads through:
• Direct horse-to-horse contact
• Respiratory droplets
• Contaminated surfaces
• Shared water or feed buckets
• Human hands or clothing that touch an infected horse

This is why limiting exposure helps — but eliminating all risk is impossible.

So while deciding what events to attend is important, it’s just as important to remember that every person’s situation, barn setup, and risk tolerance is different.

What we can all do:
• Practice good biosecurity
• Wash hands & change clothes after visiting other barns
• Don’t share buckets, hay bags, or grooming tools
• Monitor temperatures daily
• Stay home if your horse seems “off”
• Respect others’ decisions, even if they differ from yours

At the end of the day, we all love our horses and want to protect them. Fear doesn’t have to turn into division.

Be safe. Be smart. Be kind.
We’re in this together — and prayers for every horse, owner, vet, and barn crew working through this right now. 🤍🙏🐴
