The 3 "P's" can play a really significant role with float training.
Preparation- making sure your horse can back, send forward, back over items and stand calmly.
Patience- being able to wait and let your horse understand what is being asked.
Perseverance- when a backwards step happens to not lose hope and lose your cool, just trust the process.
Miss prim here was quite a tricky one to get on (and off) the float to come for her training so we have been incorporating key skills into her groundwork to improve this while she has been here. This was the first time I had tested her out with the float and after a short groundwork reminder and about 5 min of forward back this is how she was loading. Very proud of this clever girl.
