Abstract
Moreover, the Wean-H foals were those that learned faster at training and the only group that passed all aims at the final test; the Imp-H foals were the less reactive, but did not learn better than Ex-H foals and were more troublesome when trained. In summary, our data suggest that 3-handling sessions in young horses are enough to act on human-animals' relationship, learning performance and, and may be improved if performed in the specific period of weaning.
