Training Tips
Training Your Horse to Trailer Load: Trailer loading doesn’t have to be a battle
Loading into a trailer is one of the most important things a horse learns. There are few horses today that won’t, at some time in their lives, be faced with getting into a trailer.

Years ago I had to deliver a filly to a ranch. I was running late, and I put the pressure on this mare and got her in the trailer in about 10 minutes, but I didn’t bother to unload her. It was about a two-hour drive, and when I got there it took me two more hours to get her out. I had made it so difficult for her not to go in, that she went in, but then she found a safe place and didn’t want to come out. I wouldn’t have wanted to come out either. A horse’s attitude can affect both loading and unloading.

Training Tips
A “Pecking” Order: Improving Your Horse’s Ground Manners
Last week I was instructing a cattle penning clinic and a participant asked me how he could get his horse to stand still when getting into the saddle. The horse worked great on cattle, but had terrible ground manners.

Let’s go way back to the old school for this one. Back to when people used harness and single-tie stalls a lot for their horses.

They usually had to walk between a wood plank wall and the horse. Sounds easy enough to do…unless your horse decided to move his 1,200-pound body toward you, squeezing you into a one-foot space between the wall and him. This is not a situation you want to find yourself in, especially if you don’t know what to do.

Training Tips
EQUINE PARTNERING: Stop Sneaking up on Your Horse
There’s a cartoon Mountain Dew commercial with no words. It’s the old fashioned style where the line drawings move. Like you drew each in progress action in a thick pencil on a card deck and then flipped thru them. There’s a ‘man in black’ who is hunched with bent head, arms, hips and knees and he travels in a stealthy, tip-toe manner. Even before he tries to steal the Mountain Dew, we know he’s a bad guy.

STOP SNEAKING UP ON HORSES!!! If you do, they know you’re a bad guy. At the very least you’re being dishonest. They MUST wonder what you’re hiding!
