Horse TrainingI want to caution you that horse training is very dangerous. I have hesitated about a year putting this training section up on the internet, because it is real easy to get in a bind even with a "nice horse". Nice horses have hurt me more than the "wild ones" simply because I trusted them too much and got caught flat footed. I would suggest that you make sure you start traing your horse in a secure area like a 6 foot high round pen, mine happens to be 50 foot in diameter. I like the round pen 6 foot tall to kepp them in it and also when you turn your horse or mule into the rail they will lower their head rather than poking over the top. I use a sand base of at least 10 inches in the round pen this allows for good drainage, and a softer landing ;- )
Ok to start all you horses lay down
Just kidding, but we are pretty laidback with the horses, follow the links and you will see that in our training methods. |
