My Horses acting suspicious like there is something wrong.

When I went to go see my horse Star, she looked like she was about to have a foal. I am very concerned because I don't know if she did mate with any of my other three horses. The three boy horses are Micki a mule, Lucky or Casper. All of my horses are acting like there is something trying to hurt them. They are always warning me and keeping me close to them like something bad is going to happen. Will you please help me?

Hi Molly,

I hope that you've contacted your vet to see about your mare.

Regarding the others -- I would not be able to assess the situation from your description. Perhaps your vet was able to assist you in determining what was bothering them.

I hope all has calmed down and you've been able to get some help.

All the best,

Dr. Getty
