[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 548900, member: 7275"] By all means put a nose ring in him. But do not try to use it to lead him. It is there to keep him from getting out of control. You should try to use a rope halter rather than all the fancy ones. He may need to be tied up high if you are not currentlty tieing him. He will begin to get respect for the halter and what it is for. Then you you need to be patient but keep working on leading him some everyday. He needs to be able to trust you 1st then respect you. As far as getting him in the trailer, We used to run a long lead through one of the slats up at the front of the trailer. Then we would get behind and push him/her in while pulling on the lead. It usually took us a couple times. But even the hardest headed ones usually got in easy by the third trip. This can be a fear or hard head problem. Either way repition and not giving in (in a patient controlled atmosphere) have typically been my best medicine. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
