A meeting of the By Burnie Lee I have been asked many questions about colts and I guess there are as many ways to break a colt as there are trainers. I have had my best results by starting with a colt as soon as he is born. I put a halter on our colts as soon as they are able to be up and around. At one day old, we start working with him and continue until he is leading well, if done properly Qus can be accomplished in a week or 10 davs. After vattm the halter on the colt, I pet and talk to him until I feel he is no longer frightened. Then I snap a long rope (about 8 ft.) to his halter snap one on the mare and gently try to lead him. If the colt doesnl lead I take the rope and carefully slip it around his hindquarters bringing the end up and around to the place where I snaped it to his halter. Now I can easily take both ends of the rope and control his head with one hand, leaving the other hand free to lead the mare or pet the colt as I urge him by gently applying pressure to the rop around I his hindquarters. This method pushes as well as pulls him at the same time and gives the trainer more control of the colt. 1 never try to lead the colt away from his mother, but always work with the mare close at hand. I don't recommend a child to do this type of training, for the trainer must master the colt. One young colt I was handling reared and fell to the ground. I was aggravated with him at the time so I sat on him. He couldn't get up and didn t know what to think of the situation. When he quieted down and quit struggling I petted him and talked to him, then I let him up. He was a different colt and turned out to be one of the nicest colts to train. Later an oidtimer who trained colts many years told me he liked to sit on some baby colts that he broke, then when they grew up they never forgot the experience and they remembered that a man had sat on and mastered them. This instills a healthy, fearful respect for man into the co i t. You are stronger than the colt when he is a baby and usually anything you start can be accomplished by gentle but strong handling. Now you have mastered him without breaking his spirit or hurting him. Not every colt needs to be taken down and sat on, but it doesn't hurt them. If you wait til a horse is two or three years old and weighs 800 or 900 lbs it takes more time and sometimes some rough handling. When a horse is bigger than you it is more difficult to master him. They are apt to hurt themselves because they may be frightened and don't have the trust in you. When they only weigh 100 to 200 pounds, training is much simpler. After teaching the colt to respect the rope and halter we mess around with his feet. We pick them up and gently tap them and show him we are not going to hurt him. I always talk to a colt as I work with him winning the most important thing of all, his trust in me. When I feel he knows the rope and trusts me and leads fairly well, I take the halter off and turn him out to pasture and never bother him again until I am ready to start his light training at about m or 2 years of age. Should he get hurt, then we catch him to doctor him. Another reason to halter break colts when they are babies, you have already won their confidence and they know you aren t hying to hurt them if they are injured. Many times when a colt gets injured his first experience is a harsh and frightening experience. When you administer the medication it may hurt and scare him and you may never lose this first impression he may never trust you fully again. Horses seldom forget frightful experiences, so win his confidence at an early age, the younger the better. ! i1 ' I: - t V I - i r t ' i - - . , ,y . , v Dave Allstott sinks two for the Mustangs during their game against the Redsides.
