Boss mare: the mare who leads the herd, she decides when to stop for water, navigates from danger, and sets the mood
There is always a mare who rules the herd. Roxy may be the biggest horse in the mare’s pasture, but Alley runs the show.
Sometimes people look at me and ask how I handle horses being that I’m such a “tiny thing.” Being a boss is sometimes more about the attitude than the size.
