How to Hitch a Horse to a Wagon

    • 1). Place a bridal harness around the horses head and secure the buckle to ensure it does not come loose. Attach a lead to the harness and walk the horse to the place where you will hitch the horse and wagon. Tie the lead to a secure object to prevent the horse from moving away.

    • 2). Groom the horse thoroughly with a brush before hooking up any additional wagon equipment. Excessive dirt buildup can result in irritation to the horse's skin. Check the harness and other equipment to ensure it is free of excessive dirt buildup, as this could also irritate the horse's skin.

    • 3). Place the collar harness around the horse's neck. Make sure the harness is positioned as close to the shoulders as possible. Lay the back and leg straps across the horse's back and secure them to the neck collar.

    • 4). Walk the horse to the front of the wagon. Back the horse into the wagon tongue. Secure the harness straps to the wagon tongue. Check the neck collar and back harness to make sure everything is still in its proper place. Attach the reins to the head harness and stretch them back to the wagon seat.
