What should you do when looking for a horse?

You should look at everything e.g. how old it is, how tall it is, and escpecially it's temperament, vetinary history, how well it behaves when being loaded onto a trailer. If you decide you really like a certain horse, and go to look at it, if you get there and the horse is alredy tacked up, and in the arena, be cautious, because it might behave really badly when be tacked up or groomed. I don't want to put you off buying a horse, but you must be cautious. I hope this helps you find your perfect horse, and if it does, I hope you and your horse are very happy together.


How do you load a stubborn horse on a trailer?

There are many different ways to load a horse onto the trailer. You can either get a horse onto a trailer by force or bribery (which often doesn't work) or you can actually train the horse to go into the trailer. One way, perhaps the most common way, to train a horse to go into a trailer is to work the horse outside the trailer and let him rest inside it. You may have to start with just letting him rest near the trailer, but eventually the horse will get the picture. Another way is to use reverse physicolgy kind of. The idea of this is to lead the horse up to the trailer, and when the horse reaches a point where he subtly tells you he doesn't want to go any further, you back him up, kind of saying "We can go close to the trailer, but we can't go in" and sooner or later, the horse will want to get in the trailer. This works best with very curious horses, and you must be very observant so that you can back up the horse before going past his comfort zone. The first version is your best bet, but every horse is different and some do better with version 2.
