Why Horse Training Is Important

By Anne Hill


The reasons for horse training are many. Of course, all riders want their steed to listen to them and follow their directions. However, there are more, much deeper reasons to train your steed.

Perhaps the most important reason to train your steed is for your own safety. Steeds are powerful and, if out of control, can do a lot of harm to their rider. Many people are injured or killed by steeds annually. Steed training could possibly save your life.

Training your steed creates a lasting bond. It's important that you and your steed both trust and respect each other. Praising your steed when he does something right helps to build that trust and respect. Riding a steed with quality bridles for sale that listens to you because he loves you and has a bond with you is much better than riding a steed that listens out of fear.

With the right training, you can figure out what makes your steed act the way he acts. Being able to predict what your steed may do is essential for your safety and for the steed's well being. Because a steed can't verbally tell you his thoughts or feelings, having a relationship where you are able to read his disposition will make him glad. A glad steed makes a glad rider.

A well educated steed is worth much more than an untrained steed. If you should ever decide to sell your steed, you want to get as much as he's worth. Trained steeds are considered more valuable as the new owner won't have to put in the time, energy and money to do it themselves. If you don't ever sell your steed, you will still have a much greater relationship with the bonding that occurs during steed training.

Schooling your steed creates a basic foundation for more advanced teaching. An athlete doesn't start of by going straight to the Olympics. It is similar with a horse, baby steps must be taken. In order to get your steed to an advanced level you have to be sure he starting off right. He has to know what you want and you have to be in control before you can expect to train him in more advanced levels.

For the most enjoyable riding experience, taking the time to train your steed is essential. Fighting for control all the time is a recipe for disaster and is physically and mentally draining draining for the rider and the steed. Horse training makes a better time for everyone.
