Trailer Loading Made Easy (Horseman's Day)

Horses who refuse or are difficult to load can cause a lot of frustration to their owners. In addition, they can be a danger to themselves and their handlers. Veterinarians are often asked to become involved because many people believe that tranquilization or sedation will help them load their horse safely. This is usually not a workable option for several reasons.

First, horses traveling to shows or races may be in violation of medication rules if they are drugged for loading. Second, sedated or tranquilized horses may be more likely to have an injury from falling as they may become unsteady. Third, drugged horses do not really learn how to load well for future trips.

The method to be described is a safe and effective way of teaching horses to load and stand quietly in the trailer without resorting to drugs or force. Plus, the principles and concepts used here can be applied to many other areas of human-horse interactions. They also can apply to such equine unsocial behaviors as a horse rubbing against you with its head; stepping, pushing or leaning on you; pulling on the lead rope to eat; not keeping up with you; being hard to catch; not tying and being head or ear shy.

Required materials include a halter and soft lead rope (a chain shank should be available but is used infrequently), a horse trailer in good repair, a stiff fishing rod 6 to 7 feet in length with a plastic bag taped to the end, and, most importantly, a positive, patient attitude.

The methods used encourage the horse to make positive choices to load and discourage his attempt to escape or evade loading. This is done by convincing the horse that he really wants to be in the trailer. Make him think it is his idea to get into the trailer. The rod with the plastic bag is used to aggravate or annoy (i.e. shaking the rod and bag behind the horse ’s head or gently tapping the rod and bag at the horse’s hind quarters or on the legs) the horse when he tries to avoid the trailer. The rod should never be used to inflict pain. The aggravation should be stopped the instant the horse tries to load. With some horses, just looking toward rather than away from the trailer is a positive try. Pointing ears into the trailer and lowering the head are also positive choices that are always awarded. Most horses will explore all of their options before deciding that the best place to be is in the trailer.
