How do you train a young Haflinger for both riding and light agricultural draft work?
Because they are a dual-purpose breed, what training foundations are required to transition them from saddle work to pulling a carriage?

Begin with extensive ground driving using long lines to teach voice commands and pressure steering without the weight of a cart. Desensitize them to the sound and feel of the harness dragging behind them before ever hitching them to a rigid vehicle.
