How To Train A Young Horse – Gentle Horse Training
Do you want to know how to train a young horse? Well, here are some tips.
First, you have to remember that Training A Young Horse would run more smoothly if you are able to establish a trusting relationship with the animal. Get to know your horse, and let it get to know you. Also, keep in mind that you have to keep the lessons simple. Break down each lesson until it is at its smallest component. This way, your young horse will be able to absorb it faster and retain it better. It helps to be very concise in the way you ask and in the way you work with young horses. Horses feel more comfortable when they have a clear leader. Take one step at a time, and never ever proceed to the next step until it has mastered the previous one.

For example, when you get on, teach your horse to walk on a long rein. Make it simple for your horse by starting on the rein it prefers. Choose the gait in which your horse has the least difficulty balancing – one in which it can better keep the rhythm and stay together.
Bring variety to your training. Go on trail rides, lunge your horse, do cavalletti work, or ride over some low jumps. Moreover, make sure that your horse has enough power and energy when working with it. If you train your very young horse to the point of exhaustion, then it will be reluctant to be with you the next time. When this happens, do not use force. This will only lead your horse to become braced and to fear your presence. Remember, positive reinforcement is the key. Always end a session positively and walk on the buckle again.
In training your horse, be content with small steps in your progress.

Starting training on a young horse?
I have a Paint that turns 3 in July. Currently, she leads fairly well and picks up her feet. I would like to start training her, but I’m not really sure where to start. What do I teach her first? How long do I need to train on the ground before introducing the saddle? I have trained older horses before, but I have never started a young one. Anyone have any experience with this?
You should keep lunging her every day to keep up her endurance. When a month or two has gone by, introduce the saddle. Put her in her stall, and rub the blanket all over her so that she gets used to it touching her. Then lay it on her back and stroke her to keep her calm. Let it rest there for about 5 or 10 minutes then take it off. Do the same thing the next day, and do that for a week or until she’s comfortable with it on her back. Then take a saddle and let her see it first, touch her sides and wait to see how she reacts. If you think it’s okay to put it on her back, then do so, but slowly and quietly. If she startles or moves away, stroke her and calm her down. Don’t tighten the girth/cinch. Do that for as long as you think nessessary. After she’s comfortable, tighten the girth/cinch very loosely, but enough to touch her belly. Every day after that tighten it a bit more until it’s just right. Lead her around for a little bit after that with a halter on. When you get to the bridle, only work on the bit part for a while. Then slip the headstall over her ears, and if she’s still calm, take one rein and tie it to the saddle so that her head comes around and she starts moving that way. That will teach her what way to move when you tighten one rein. Do the same with the other rein, and when she’s fully adjusted to the bridle, saddle and blanket, walk her around a little in the pasture. Then put weight on her saddle. Hope I Helped, even though I’ve never ever trained a horse before. Just learned this last year.
