It is called harnessing or hitching a horse to a wagon. This involves using a harness with straps to attach the horse to the wagon, allowing the horse to pull the weight of the wagon.
A trotter horse typically pulls a sulky, which is a lightweight two-wheeled cart used in harness racing.
Approach the horse calmly, check the harness and reins are secure, and gently climb into the carriage. Use the footrest for leverage and always maintain a firm grip on the supports while getting in. Remember to adjust your seat for comfort before moving off.
Harness bells are small bells attached to a horse's harness, often used for decorative purposes or to signal the presence of the horse while pulling a carriage or plow. When a horse shakes its harness bells, it typically does so as a natural response to movement, excitement, or to communicate with its handler. The sound can also serve to alert others nearby to the horse's presence. Additionally, some horses may shake their bells as a way to relieve boredom or express their energy.
Harness bells are small bells attached to the harness rope of a riding-horse which will tinkle as the horse rides or moves to warn others of its coming or its whereabouts. In Robert Frost's famous poem Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening we can read: "He gave his harness bells a shake, To ask if there is some mistake." The horse whose animal instincts are more sharp than man's sensed danger in staying in the snow-falling forest for long. So to rouse his master and to ask if there is some mistake, he gave his harness bells a shake which alone could he do, rather than felling his master from his back to rouse him from his revery. The sound of the horse bells were heard distinctly against the sweeping sound of easily flowing wind and down falling snow. The master was roused from his equestrian day dream and leading the horse continued on his journey. Harness bells in Poetry seem to have no other reference or relevance.
