When i was 13 my 6 year old mare “annie” fell with me in a reining class. I fell to the ground with her on top of me. An older gentelmen came to the arena, along with other competitors, to see if i was ok. they had to approch annie and me quietly because they didn’t want her to get up. She laid their very still so that she wouldn’t hurt me. the man that came and got her said later on that he had to take my feet out of the stirrups and pull annie up. [private]While he was trying to get her off me he said she would not stop nickering softley.
The gentelman took her back to the barn and the whole time annie would stop, and look back at me lying on the ground unconcious. the ambulance had to come get me, but it all turned out to be fine.[/private]
