Hi Nancy, I heard so stories on how people drag, push, whip, lift their horse into a trailer. I heard of one story where the horse got 2 feet in and had 2 big guys pick up the back end stuff him in the trailer. Anne

Re: [IceHorses] Andi, Icelandic Horse, For Sale
Hi Virginia, The way I do it its kind hard to descript. I can tell you it takes a lot of time and patience with lots of cookies with a problem loader. I kind make it his idea to load and slowly they come in one foot at a time and there is never a fight. I have had a lot clients bring me their problem horses that will not load. If you bring me your horse I be glad to help you? Anne

AT best he just hasnt been loaded and is scared. AT worst he's phobic because something happened and that could take a little time. I only know one horse that isnt loadable and the owner gave up after about ten sessions. She is a peruvian paso mare and she just goes berserk. its hard to figure why. my neighbor had a horse that was in a trailer accident so bad they had to use the jaws of life to cut her out of the trailer and her vulva and hips are scarred from it and she hops right in a trailer with no hesitation at all. so she must not connect the trailer with that scarey incident but i suspect this peruvian mare, like my jaspar, and maybe this icey, it isnt about trailer loading at all. Its about training and not trusting people trying to teach you to do something. It gets bigger and bigger in their minds til it is HUGE and they just get so leery of everything they just want to avoid being made to do something new at all costs. So you have to teach them other stuff first and along the way they begin to realize, oh, when I do things she asks I dont get hurt, its ok, its way more hassle to fight her on things that to just trust it isnt about trailering its about asking them to leave the comfort zone tey have arrived at after what was to them a horrifying training experience. jmo.

Re: [IceHorses] Andi, Icelandic Horse, For Sale
Have to confess - I had the same thought. Loading shouldn't be a problem, and I wouldn't let it keep me from buying a horse I liked in all the important ways. Nancy

He is cute as a bug though.. LOrraine Happy Trails from Lori Hi Lori, WE had a few horses that would not load and it only took me about 2hrs to teach the horse to load in a trailer. A few yrs ago we purchase 3 horses and 1 ones in a trailer already and the other two were still babies and the oldest one of the 2 babies she just took a flying leap into the trailer, she almost drag me into the trailer with her, she leaped so fast. One has to go at the horse's speed and take your time and not be in a rush to teach a horse to load. It has to be the horse's idea to load and they will load all the time. I got a method that I use that works. Anne - Luggage? GPS? Comic books? Check out fitting gifts for grads at Yahoo! Search.
