[QUOTE="flaboy?, post: 353252, member: 5749"] I think there are as many ways to train horses to load as there are types of horse trailers. I have winched them in, held my brothers arm across their rear while my dad pulled from the front, lead them in with another horse, backed the trailer up to their stall (stock trailer) and put their feed and hay in there, lounged them around in circles behind the trailer, squeezed them in, drugged them (vet), and I forget some of the other ways from back when. Some swear by a certain way but my experience is whatever works without getting you or the horse hurt. My Idiot was trained by the folks I bought him from with the stock trailer feed/hay method. I had suggested it as he was a fighter. Within a few days they would find him standing in it when there was no feed or hay in it. Today I can open the back door and he will walk in and look around and then come out when he has finished investigating. [/QUOTE]
