Re: Horse eating trailers!

["Michelle Rowe" <michrowe@frontier.net>]

You'll get about a hundred replies about trying the John Lyon's loading
techniques.  I just thought I'd send the first one. :-)  We used it on our
two brats, and they are now loading up without any problems.  There are
several Lyon's books that talk about loading.  Any of them should get you
started.

Just be careful and go slowly.  I wear my helmet even for training like
that, as I've put so darned much money and time into this brain of mine.

Help me all of you experienced horse people! You're my only hope!

I'm sitting here nursing several blisters on my hand, muscle aches and a
sore heart while my poor mare is recovering from a egg sized bump over her
right eye.  The bump was self inflictd (although I still feel awful) when I
tried to load her into a trailer.  I knew she was somewhat hesitant before
but this time she totally freaked out.  How can I help her overcome this
fear?
I want to start LSD training so someday I'll get to particapate in the
fun(?) and meet you people.

Help!
