Finally a trailer loading video that the horse doesn’t jump right in. THANKS!!!!

This is a really good reminder to practice outside of travel. The next time I can go a few days without my truck I will have to park it and the trailer where we can practice. Also, just a reminder to the general public since I don't think you mentioned - never load a horse in a trailer that is unattached to a truck! The trailer can move and even tip over while loading. I have a horse that is very bipolar about the trailer. Sometimes he goes right on and I can load alone no problem... and other times he not only backs up but if he can turn his head around will bolt. Sometimes if I am alone and unsure what he is going to do I will put on a lunging cavesson that has rings on his nose (over his halter), which does not allow him leverage to yank his head around and that really helps keep him forward (I do take it off once loaded). Thanks for the tips!

Good point about loading on your own. Recently had mine tied up already and the ramp not closed, and he started backing out, felt the pressure and panicked and broke the lead rope, banged his head on the roof. He's fine, but it was a bit frightening alright.

The issue with this is that if your horse pulls back and freaks out, with the gate closed, you get hurt being locked in an enclosed space with a panicking horse. I load by myself. I also have butt straps on the straight load so once the horse is loaded,I don't tie them first. I clip the straps. Then shut the gate, run around to the front and tie them off real quick. Also put a feed bag where you're tying them to give them something else to think about. In an open trailer like this, this is actually a slant load but she doesn't have the dividers. So how that trainer is supposed to work, is that you load, tie, close individual slant. In your case, of the horse knew verbal commands when you tied him and said whoa, he'd stay there, understanding he was supposed to and when he felt the resistance of the lead, he wouldn't have panicked because he'd know he was supposed to stay there. Also, you may have had your lead to tight. 18" is all you need between the tie off and the clip. And if your horse is tied, without 2 yards of lead, there's no way the horse will pull enough to be tottering on the edge of the trailer. If they fall off the trailer, they already snapped the lead and that's another issue. Bull snaps are your friend and rope halters.

I googled a horse's attention span: "They recognize you as their leader and protector, therefore they will pay attention to you. How Long Is a Horse’s Attention Span? If you check out this article, you will learn that a horse’s attention span is on average 11.8 seconds. That is a very short amount of time, so you must remember this when training your horse."

Sounds funny, but I have two miniature horses. I therefore have a miniature trailer. Getting them into it always involves me getting into it first…which means on my knees. About 1/3 of the attempts, they will go right in…the other times, it becomes a battle of wills. I wish I’ seen this video two years ago! 😂

One thing that has helped our horses get used to the trailer is we leave it in their yard so they can investigate it and get used to it, sights, sounds and all.

@jodibrandl75222 жыл бұрын
I have a question sweetheart. Why do you reward your horse with treats when they do what you want? Isn't the release of pressure a better way of treating them or no? I've seen it done several didn't ways, I'm just trying to get a fill for the different ways! Thank you sweetie!!! 😍🥰😍🥰
@CarmellaAbel2 жыл бұрын
Hi Jodi! I often use release of pressure to reward; the one time I used treats in this video is only after the horse was completely on the trailer, and that was more to help them positively associate being in the trailer. I hope this helps!
@jodibrandl75222 жыл бұрын
@Equine Helper thanx hun, it's good to know your reasons for your training methods. I feel the way you do with the treats when they've done a very stressful event so they know they've done what you've asked! I love your videos, please don't stop. I've learned a lot more about horses and how to correct things and to train them! Your awesome sweetie!!!

This was very helpful. I'm taking the horse I lease to a show sometime soon and it'll be the first time for me to load a horse, and he's young which just makes it better (sarcasm). I was wondering, if the door gets closed behind you before you tie them up, how would you get off? would you just open the door again? I was thinking and I felt like that may make the horse back up and try to get out of the trailer. If someone could help me with this that would be great.
@sakuraogami99462 жыл бұрын
most trailers should have a smaller door in the front, that's where you get out after closing the back door, also make sure that the front door is closed (or has bars on) until you lead and tie your horse, because it wouldn't be good if they tried to escape through it
