subject: How To Train A Wild Horse Without Fear [print this page] Training a wild horse can be very difficult and dangerous. When training with animals, you might find it too challenging that sometimes giving up is the best possible solution. People dont just deal with the attitude of wild horses, but also with their size and the harm they could possibly put on if they get out of control. But how to train a wild horse is actually simpler with useful techniques and a well planned procedure.
First you should bring in the training tools such as lead ropes, saddles, and whips and have the horse be familiar with it. It would be better that if you train the horse, you be the one to care for him as well so that he will get used to your smell and wont hesitate every time you go near him. Have him feel all the training tools without using it on him. A wild horse has to feel he is not being harmed by any of these.
Next is you slowly place each tool on him, one every few days or few weeks. If he resists, never force it on him. Give him a treat for every tool you get to wear on him, like if a halter with a lead rope is already tied on him, feed him something nice. Wild horses need so much brushing and petting too, to calm them down.
How to train a wild horse to move around is your next challenge. Let the horse free around a fenced area. Dont be too demanding or over controlling. Just observe his movement and pretend to play around with him. Walk with him slowly and if you see that hes calm and enjoying the moment thats when you try and ride him. But continue to give him commands with your hands like have him move forward or stop.
Now that you know how to train a wild horse, its time to try teaching him some fun and simple tricks.
