It depends! It mostly depends on the horse's age. Young horses must be trained from the time they are foals to accept human companionship, handling, and eventually the saddle. A horse should begin training as a foal without a saddle but with a halter. As soon as possible, the foal should be trained to wear a halter. Once the foal is used to the halter's pressure on his face, he needs to get accustomed to being led on a rope. Trust builds early between the foal and its owner; by the age of 2, the horse should be completely halter- and lead-trained. Horses have to be taught to understand simple commands; you'll facilitate this learning through your touch.

If you’re interested in training a horse to be ridden, there are some steps to be to make the process easier:

  1. Build a Bond
  2. Master Groundwork
  3. Desensitize Your Horse
  4. Get the Horse Used to the Saddle
  5. Get Your Horse Used to Weight In the Saddle
  6. Apply Pressure Under Saddle
