Pony will load if he has a lunge line behind him to persuade him in. He travels fine once in.
Thing is I will be mostly loading him alone, so can't get the line behind him. We spent about an hour today with a bucket of food doing the "step forward, ooh nearly up the ramp, best step back' routine and he did get most of the way in before reversing!
I want to just have him load, eat some grub and unload until he is happy to go in but not sure the best way to do this alone?
Any tips?
