Reluctance to be caught can stem from fear, negative associations from tack, separation distress and previous negative experiences so it is important to identify the underlying cause and work to remove the cause alongside this shaping plan.
This shaping plan for catching with easy and confidence is suitable for foals, yearlings and nervous animals that have never been trained to be caught. Also for those equines of any age that have developed a catching issue.
