[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1791638, member: 25884"] We used to run them in the barn and out the chute/head gate to get them more familiar with it and not get "head shy".. Ours is not an automatic catch... I will also give them a little grain if in the head catch for a few minutes so it is not a "big bad scary thing"..... when we are trying to get done quick when the vet is there it is a less than "pleasant" experience as time is money so we try to hurry them through.... and my son does not have patience with the ones that don't want to come in either.... but when I am by myself, I try to give them some sort of "treat" so they do not associate it with just getting stuck with a needle or an arm stuck up their butt....
