    HALTER TRAINING

    ​


    The Mustang Heritage Foundation defines halter training as including Catching, Haltering, Leading, Trailer Loading, and Standing Still for Hoof Care and Grooming. Although MHF does not specifically mention     Standing Tied,  this skill is generally considered a necessary part of early training.

    ​
