We teach you and your horse!
Based on the number of enquires we receive, it appears that float loading or trailer loading, is the most prevalent equine problem. The good news, is that your horse can be trained to walk on the float calmly, responsively and safely, without causing you anxiety.

The critical aspect of the video's is safety and training. Both are required to achieve a calm and efficient result as demonstrated. If attempting this method without coaching, make sure that you keep yourself safe. Sorry about the quality, filmed a long time ago.
Part 1 = 4:41 mins
Trailer / Float Loading a Horse.
Norm briefly discusses aspects of horse float loading safety, equipment and float design.
Part 2 = 5:39 mins
Norm shows how one person can load two horses easily from outside of the float. Even without a centre divider or breech gates/chains, providing the horse is trained sufficiently.
Watch the horses walk on and stand calmly while the tailgate is closed.
Part 3 = 2:22 mins
Norm loads one young, inexperienced horse, while it is distracted by its paddock mates.
Below is a client's horse who was extremely difficult to load.
This powerful Clydesdale Cross was an expert at using its strength against the handler. However, after some discussion with Norm, the horse learned to get on board politely. Look at the following series of pics -
At the start, the horse would not go near the float. The horse had a habit of turning around to run off. Keeping control of the head was vital to the Norm's safety and changing the horses' attitude.
Note the tension spring of the ramp is set too strong, which keeps the ramp hovering above the ground. This does not help but the horse learns to cope easily. The whip effect in the rope is caused by the horse refusing to go forward and tossing his head. He is so powerful that any movement has significant 'feel' to it.
After an hour or so, the horse progresses to quietly walking onto the float. Starting with the horse relaxed, standing away from the float. Then, asking the horse to walk around and onto the float.
Norm keeps away from the horse and ramp. In these next pics, notice the distance that Norm is standing from the horse and ramp.
The horse is now cooperating and Norm gently controls the horse's head as it nears the ramp.
WOW! Now transformed into a willing and relaxed horse! Norm likes to have all horses at this level of softness.
