[RC] Getting in the trailer - GarnerT

When I first got Taz, we tried feeding him in the trailer.  He went for 2
days without going in to eat.  The Quarter Horse trainer I had help me drove
past every day on his way to work & laughed - knowing that wouldn't work!

The next thing we tried was having some friends come over & try to help.
They put a rope around his girth, behind his front legs & tried to pull him
in.  As I was yelling at them to stop - he went over backwards.  I could
tell that wouldn't work & the minute he felt that pressure he lost it!  We
were just lucky he didn't hurt himself.  I would never recommend those 2
practices.

The best thing I could do, was to ask/pay someone who know what they were
doing to help me & to help my horse!

Kathy Garner & Taz
