@klhorsemanship: Colt Starting a Non-Halterbroke Draft Cross | Day 1: Building Trust Every horse has to start somewhere, and this is where Rue’s journey begins! Today, I worked on applying pressure and asking him to turn and face me. We gradually worked toward getting him comfortable enough to let me reach out and give him a few pets for the very first time. I didn’t attempt to put a halter on him today. Before we get to that point, I want to start building communication and helping him understand what I’m asking of him. These might seem like small steps, but they’re the beginning of everything that comes next. Follow along as we work toward halter-breaking this big guy and building his foundation from the ground up! 🤠 #coltstarting #horsetraining #drafthorse #younghorse #equestrian
