Hi all

My youngest girl who is now 14 months old has become a bit of a pain at ringcraft classes this past couple of weeks :( One night when the person approached to go over her she started shaking and not standing still however when I was aksed to take her round she went like her usual cocky self. Now my question is if she isn't unsettled on the move and it's just when people are going over her is she anticipating the good part of going round the ring like a train or is she actually nervous. I have been taking her to a couple of ringcrafts a week to try to solve this problem and the shaking has stopped but now she won't stand still, she fidgets like crazy and fights me all the way. One of the trainers at the class said she is being obstinate and doesn't want to stand and one of them thinks she is nervous and that I should hand her over to people she doesn't know but I trust to take her away for a walk to get used to me not being with her. She hasn't had a season yet and I thought it might be down to that, fingers crossed that when she has her season it sorts itself out :) Because of various problems with her back-end developing at about 6.5 months old she hasn't been to many shows, I am taking her out this weekend to a local open show which I'm sure will be lots of fun :D :D :D
