My horse is really nervous about loading, how will the harness help?
The harness can help in this situation in two ways. Firstly, because it allows you to load the horse safely by yourself, there is no need for anyone else to be anywhere near the horse during the loading process. Many horses are nervous about loading because of past experiences of having people behind them doing all manner of things to help load the horse, from using lunge-lines, to brooms, to hosepipes, to whips and shouting. Having no-one else around will usually help to make the horse feel calmer. Secondly, because the harness gives you very much more control over the horse than a headcollar alone, it is likely to make you feel much calmer about the loading process. Horses are very good at picking up on the mood of their handler if you are calm, it is more than likely that they will be calm.
