Imprinting your newborn foal is one of the best ways to get horse
training off to a good and healthy start. But
what is foal imprinting and how is it done?
Imprinting is centered around the concept that when
a foal is born, it very quickly formulates opinions about the world. In the first few hours
and days after
birth, foals learn about 80% of what
they need to survive as a horse in this world. What we do as the human imprinting
the foal is to convince them early on that
all the things we will be subjecting them to for the rest of their lives is just
"a regular part of life," not things
to fear.
We now have a Whispering Way™ Foundation Training Series video which teaches this Foal Imprinting process and so much more!: Complete Guide to Horse Breeding, Foaling and Foal Training, Featuring Bob Claymier.

"Imprinting
is the art of introducing
yourself, a human, to
an animal infant shortly
after its birth. In
the wild, communication
takes place between
mother and offspring
within seconds after
birth." Click above to read more.

"What
if there was a way to
practically insure your
newborn foal would be
manageable and easy
to train later in his
life and it would take
about two hours on the
day he was born?"
Click above to read more.
|
"Imprinting
is the process of providing
experiences to the foal
so that they become
fundamental memories
influencing the foal
for the rest of its
life. If the foal learns
that certain experiences
are non-threatening
during its first moments
in the world, it will
be more likely to tolerate
or embrace those and
similar experiences
later on." Click above to read more.
