Teaching Young Horses How to Confidently Load in the Trailer

1105_06

How do you go about teaching a young horse how to safely get on and get off a trailer? When should you begin teaching your horse how to trailer? What additional safety precautions do you need to take when trailering young horses? Clinton answers these questions and takes on the entire subject of teaching young horses how to confidently load on and load off trailers in this month’s No Worries Club video.

Working with a young horse that has little experience being handled and has no experience with his approach to trailering, Clinton makes sure you get to see the good, the bad and the ugly that are likely to occur when first introducing the trailer to your foal, weanling or yearling. You’ll pick up valuable success tips to add to your horsemanship skill set.

Watch the training session now by logging on to the No Worries Club website, on your mobile device using the iOS and Android Downunder Horsemanship app, and on your TV using the Downunder Horsemanship app for AppleTV, Roku, Amazon Fire and Android TV.
