Cathie will start with the trailer simulator it will be designed
to simulate the techniques used to successfully load your horse
on any type of trailer.
Trailer loading problems are directly related to leading
problems. Once we are able to lead the horse up to and over a
tarp or piece of plywood. We’ll address the proper way to
approach a breast bar. We will work on standing quietly, and
backing slowly.
Once horse and handler have mastered all of the skills required
to be successful we will approach the trailer with a goal of
self loading.
Have you ever just given up on trailer
loading? Don't give up - just call Cathie.
"We struggled with our horses for a long time. Sometimes they
would load, unload, and then not get on again to go back home.
Other days we would try to load them for hours. They were
clearly unhappy and so were we. Our experiences were not safe
ones either. Cathie worked with us a couple of times and our
horses now self load willingly, ride calmly, and slowly walk
out. We actually give their tails a little tug when we're ready!
My husband and I couldn't be happier with her training and our
stress free trailer loading! Thanks Cathie for getting us
through this. We are all better for it"! Linda Chita
