Ridecamp: [RC] trailer loading

Sherie taylor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I need trailer loading suggestions.   I have a 6 year old mare that will get her front feet in the trailer, then rush back out.  Sometimes she'll get all the way in, then rush back out.  She doesn't act terrified of the trailer.  I've tried putting a long rope on her halter and running it out the side of the trailer and back behind her.  That just freaks her out.  I've also tried the John Lyons tap tap tap method and that just makes her pissed off and she turns sideways to avoid the trailer.
