    I have a horse that spends a bit of time in a large paddock with 3 others; There is one mare & three geldings - the mare is the paddock diva. Monty is a very affectionate animal, but scared to death of the mare; The only time he will stand up to her is if I enter the paddock & call him and they all come; He will drive the two other geldings away first (not my horses) and then if the mare (my son's)is still hanging around he will go for her too. I do not necessarily have any horse treats on me for him to behave like this, so I assume it is jealousy and possessiveness of me that triggers this behavior; It only happens in the big paddock - if he and the mare are in a small 1-acre paddock or a yard it doesn't bother him if I pay attention to her.
