@dollarken8: "Diane ❤️ I can’t even imagine the life this mare lived… Of all the horses we’ve rescued we’ve only taken in two that are almost conditioned to being beaten. Cardi is one & Diane is the other. It’s different than spooky, flighty, etc. Learned helplessness is the best way to describe it. They brace & prepare… Diane is coming around. She willingly comes up to us now. She still has the ticks… (head shaking, rapid blinking & turns in circles), but they are very minimal compared to what they started at. She does not have any of these issues out in the pasture on her own. It’s only when she feels pressure or stress… She is healing. Every horse is their own being, so every case is different in needs, time frame, etc. I think that’s why individualized & one on one care is so "
