Look for horse training clinics in your area. It would be best to choose an established clinic because their services are already proven. You must meet with the teacher personally before you start the classes.

Since you’ll be traveling to the clinic, your horse should be familiar with the trailer; otherwise, you will find it hard to travel the horse when it’s already time for the class.

Try to lead the horse inside the trainer but don’t move it yet.

On the day of the clinic class, you should leave early. You’ll never know what’s going to happen. Drive carefully because you’re towing the horse. In the clinic, your horse will see lots of people and . If they feel afraid or uncomfortable, your horse may not want to leave the trailer immediately.

Hard work is on the way so you need to work more as well as your horse.

Preparation takes time.

You and your horse should be prepared by the time the class starts.
