Horse Trainers

Horse Trainers are an important part of horse ownership. Whether you are a complete novice or an experienced professional, there is always new information and ways of training your horse to be learned. 

Foals

Foals need a lot of handling when they are young, to get them ready for adult life, but it is important that you handle a foal correctly and teach them gently to learn and listen to your voice and actions. If you get this wrong early on, you can be left with a horse that has no manners and won't listen. There are trainers that specialize in handling foals and young horses, who can assist with building that bond.

Young Horses

When a young horse is old enough, it will need to be shown how to wear a headcollar and horse tack such as a bridle, ready to be lunged and long-reined to help strengthen its joints and build its muscles. Groundwork is essential preparation for when a horse is ready to be backed (seated with a rider). There are many trainers so area expertise is working with horses on the ground.

The experienced horse

Once your horse is used to being ridden, it might be time to specialize in a particular discipline. Is your horse good at jumping or do you prefer eventing or dressage? Whatever you choose there are specialist horse trainers for all types of riding.
