We can assist with imprinting your newborn
foal. Imprinting is basically the desensitising
of a newborn foal to teach it not to fear
human touch. The foal bonds with its dam
as well as the human. Studies have shown
that the imprinting and bonding period
occurs immediately after birth and only lasts
for an hour or two. After that anything
strange will generally invoke fear in the foal.
A foal can also be desensitised to items such
as plastic bags, clippers, ropes etc.
We also does general foal handling. Lessons
include halter breaking, tying up, picking up
and trimming feet, float loading and more.
