La iniciaci\u00f3n de un potro es un tema en torno al que no siempre hay consenso, aunque s\u00ed hay una serie de pautas en las que la mayor\u00eda de los profesionales ecuestres coinciden.<\/p>\n
El primer paso es siempre conseguir que el potro se acostumbre al ser humano, lo cual pasa por que acepte la cercan\u00eda f\u00edsica, se deje acariciar por todo el cuerpo y aprenda poco a poco las normas de convivencia humano-caballo, incluido el ramaleo. Esta fase hay que iniciarla lo antes posible, teniendo siempre cuidado de no interferir en la relaci\u00f3n madre-potro ni en su rutina durante los seis primeros meses, que deben seguir su curso natural para favorecer un desarrollo adecuado a nivel f\u00edsico y mental.<\/p>\n
Luego vendr\u00eda la doma b\u00e1sica pie a tierra, es decir, la habituaci\u00f3n a las bridas, la embocadura, la silla y las ayudas b\u00e1sicas. Muchos profesionales inician esta fase en el segundo a\u00f1o del potro, mientras que otros son partidarios de esperar a los tres a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n
Y finalmente estar\u00eda la introducci\u00f3n a la monta del caballo. Si bien hay quien la introduce a los 3 a\u00f1os y a los 4 a\u00f1os ya empieza a aumentar el nivel de exigencia, los \u00faltimos estudios apuntan a que no deber\u00edan montarse hasta que hayan cumplido al menos los cuatro o cinco a\u00f1os, en funci\u00f3n de la raza, a fin de no afectar su crecimiento y desarrollo \u00f3seo.<\/p>\n
A partir de ah\u00ed, ser\u00eda el momento de empezar con ejercicios espec\u00edficos, en funci\u00f3n de la disciplina que vayamos a practicar. Como vemos, la edad ideal para hacerlo no parece estar clara. En cualquier caso, debe hacerse de forma paulatina y gradual, para que los m\u00fasculos del caballo se vayan habituando poco a poco a nuevas formas de moverse.<\/p>\n
\u201cLos caballos j\u00f3venes deben ser educados de forma que no solamente quieran al hombre, m\u00e1s a\u00fan, que lo busquen\u201d<\/p>\n
