My Docs Remedy mare was scared to death of cows too!! She ended up being a serious cadillac of a head horse so don't lose hope. Let someone start her in a roping pen....tracking and maybe even progressing to steer stopping. You might be pleasantly surprised. Now sheep...that was another matter...seriously terrified lol!

Location: Idaho		Im the odd girl out I guess! :) I got my mare when she was 2. She was scared to death of cattle from day one. We rope, so I was not concerned at all that we couldnt get her past it. Here we are today, my mare is 8, she is still scared of cows, though she is doing better if there is a fence between them. We have tracked them, which she does alright, but if one looks at her, she bolts! She lived with a steer for a while and would kind of eat with it and move it, but everytime I rode out in the cow pasture and we saw a cow, it was day one again. She seriously resets every time. And everytime we see a cow its as if we havent seen the cows across the fence every day! She isnt cow bred and Ive come to conclusion, its who she is. I manage it but I think she will always have a phobia. :)
