Okay, with you and the colt there in the pen, let's tackle number 3. Let's get the horse haltered. Begin by rubbing your foal stem to stern with the lead rope balled up in your hand. Rub his head and ears with it. If he's okay with that, if he stands there calmly, then progress by rubbing the horse all over with the lead rope folded in half. Droop it over his ears and allow it to catch there, pulling his ears forward and back. Wrap the lead around his neck and tug it back off. Bring it with a swing to wrap around his torso, back legs, neck and head. Keeping yourself there at the point of his shoulder, use both hands to bring the lead back and forth several dozen times past his eyes. Try moving faster. Make a little noise. Get creative and do everything from both sides. Stay vigilant because you'll always be surprised at the strange combinations of movements that will frighten your horse when you wouldn't have expected it.
