Yesterday was our first experience trailering the horses to a new location to trail ride. To my surprise they just walked right into the trailer and later walked back out. No fuss or hesitation at all. In the 5 years we've had horses we just rode in the state park near the stables.
A woman we know picked us up with a stock trailer that had her 2 horses inside. We then drove to a municipal park that was supposed to be an easy and relatively short ride. We met a young lady there who had never ridden a horse before. After some basic instruction we 4 hit the trail. The ride was fairly short, about an hour, but there were challenges. There were downed trees to go over, under and around through brush.
Glad the rookie was on an experienced and calm horse. She had a good time despite the challenges. At one point I saw a big grin on her face. I bet this won't be her last time on a horse.
