Building a trustworthy connection with your horse requires time.
Similarly, when it comes to forming a bond and developing a certain level of confidence with a horse, it takes patience and a lot of determination from the horse owner. Despite the struggle that may be associated with it, this is a unique feeling one can experience. It feels good to be trusted, and to know that you can rely on your fellow equine.
The process of developing affection and dependency on the horse is called a natural horsemanship or gentle breaking. This involves training the horse, understanding its body language and natural instincts. Surely, it is easier to form a bond with some horses, when others may require a lot more effort just because of their natural instinct to resist or being controlled. That happens out of fear, stubbornness, sensitivity, and many other causes. Below are a few strategies you can implement to gain trust and connect with your horse.
