How do you break a wild horse? You don't!When people speak of "breaking" a horse, they often simply mean "training." We don't use the term "breaking" in relation to wild horses, because of the term's association with literally breaking the horse's spirit, as was done in the old days of "mustanging." Wild horses do not respond well to "breaking" techniques. We prefer to "gentle" wild horses and burros, using humane methods based on principles of natural horsemanship and/or operant conditioning. Wild horses are wild, but not viciously so - they are simply afraid. They need to learn that people are not going to hurt them, and that their adopter can be a trustworthy leader for them. With Training, A Mustang Can Excel in Any DisciplineWe want to stress that the reason BLM horses are inexpensive is simply that they lack training - not that they lack potential or value. With the right training they can compete with the best of horses! You don't have to do it yourself! Get professional help! More and more professional trainers are discovering how willing and teachable most wild horses are. A professionally-trained horse is a joy to own - don't feel you have to do it all yourself! The following is a list of trainers and training information websites that we have compiled here for the purpose of providing adopters with a starting point in looking for help and education. It is in no way meant to be conclusive or exclusive.
