The horse will not approach
For hesitation, planting, swinging away or escalating worry before the horse reaches the ramp.
Loading & travelling
Prepare before the journey becomes urgent.
Loading problems rarely improve when the appointment is waiting, the ramp is surrounded and everyone is under pressure. Useful training begins away from that deadline.
Lauren works on the pieces that make loading possible: leading, straightness, forward and backward movement, confidence near the vehicle, standing quietly and leaving safely.
When this can help
Start with what is actually happening.
You do not need to diagnose the issue before contacting Equiscense. Clear context is enough to begin.
They rush, reverse or panic
Support where the horse enters but cannot yet stand, wait or unload in a controlled and repeatable way.
Owner confidence has gone
A calmer plan after previous force, failed attempts, an incident or anxiety about the next necessary journey.
The Equiscense process
A fair route from concern to capability.
Welfare and safety come first. Training follows only when the horse is in a position to learn.
- 01
Check the foundations
We assess handling, equipment, footing, vehicle setup and whether pain or travel experience may need attention.
- 02
Teach the component skills
Approach, pause, step, stand and reverse are built clearly before they are expected together under pressure.
- 03
Make it repeatable
The owner practises a realistic routine so loading is not dependent on Lauren being present.
Loading sessions
A practical plan for the horse, handler and vehicle.
Sessions are shaped around the current starting point. A severe or long-established problem may need several visits rather than one exhausting attempt.
- Work at your yard or agreed safe location
- Vehicle and handling setup checked before training
- No dragging, chasing or trapping the horse into the vehicle
- Clear practice plan for the owner between sessions
