Setting Foals Up for Success from Day One

The foundations of a confident sport horse are laid early. Thoughtful handling during a foal’s first weeks helps create a young horse that is curious, trusting, and adaptable.

Basic handling—such as leading, grooming, and exposure to everyday environments—should be calm and consistent. Overhandling is unnecessary, but positive early experiences can make a significant difference later in training.

At RJ3 Sport Horses, we believe early education should support natural development while encouraging respect and confidence. These early steps help ensure our young horses transition smoothly into future training programs.
