[QUOTE="Alan, post: 198342, member: 378"] I only work new foals for about 10 minutes once or twice a day, they don't remember much at that age. But you can train young foals to halter, tie, lead, give to pressure, not bite, pick up feet, don't turn your but to me in the stall, be brushed, baths, trailer load, whoa, ect. So lots of ground work can be done by the time they turn a year old. I start as soon as I see the newborn on the ground, just gaining trust and getting use to my touch (imprinting). But no, I never ask a foal to lounge until he he about 7 or 8 months, then only for a max of 10 minutes, have to take it easy on young legs. Alan [/QUOTE]
