A few weeks ago, Maxine got to meet her sister, face-to-face. How did it go, you ask? Exactly as expected—Maxine checked her out for a moment. Then, in true alpha-mare style, she nipped at her nose, undeniably establishing her dominance.Personal observation: Way to tell her who's boss, Max. I wouldn't expect any less.
Frankly, I'm quite pleased the relation started on that note. My trainer and I have already agreed that Maxine is going to make a great role model for Madge. Max doesn't put up with any behavior that out of line. I've even seen her look disgusted when another horse grabs a bite while wearing a bit. I fully expect her to be Yoda to young Jedi Madge.
