Horse\u2013rider miscommunications and\/or the use of unsuitable horses, are contributing factors in accidents, behavioural problems and wastage. Performance scores have been used to select police dogs, but no studies are available on the selection of police horses for their work. This study evaluated the responses of experienced and inexperienced police horses during training using physiological and behavioural metrics.   <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c328399 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c328399\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b92e7e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7b92e7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"628\" height=\"378\" src=\"https:\/\/www.equineintegration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/EI-Research-police-training-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-3152\" alt=\"Police horse and police officer next to a car during a patrol through the city.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.equineintegration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/EI-Research-police-training-1.jpg 628w, https:\/\/www.equineintegration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/EI-Research-police-training-1-600x361.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.equineintegration.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/EI-Research-police-training-1-300x181.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 628px) 100vw, 628px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a3d3e9b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a3d3e9b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d8fc041 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d8fc041\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Methodology<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5805f54 elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"5805f54\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d816939 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d816939\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p style=\"text-align: left;\">The study involved 12 Warmblood police horses of the Dutch police department, six horses were experienced (&gt;9 months), 6 inexperienced (&lt;1 month). They participated in four police training tests: the outdoor track, street track, smoke machine tests, and the indoor arena test, designed to simulate police work. Each horse performed all tests three times on 3 consecutive days in weeks 1, 3 and 7, while wearing a heart rate monitor. Behaviour was scored on a scale from 0 to 5. Simultaneously, a police performance score (PPS) was given by two experienced police trainers for each test. Performance was graded as \u2018pass\u2019 for a police horse (PS-0) when horses reacted calmly, or as \u2018no-pass\u2019 (PS-1) when there was an excitement response.     <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3266d6b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"3266d6b\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ede0090 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"ede0090\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Results<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9719d6d elementor-widget__width-inherit elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"9719d6d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8c1c8b8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8c1c8b8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>hearThe study showed that age and experience did not significantly affect police horses&#8217; heart rate (HR), heart rate variability and behavioural score (BS). Experienced horses, however, received higher police performance scores (PPS). A low BS was not always indicative of a low HR; some (introvert) horses with low BS had increased HRs compared with other horses with the same BS during the same activity. For the selection process of police horses it is important to distinguish between horses that are really calm and those that seemed calm but had increased HRs. Therefore, HR measurements may provide useful complimentary information during this process. The police horses overall experienced relatively low amounts of stress during these police training tests, suggesting that this kind of police work is not significantly stressful for horses and it would have no negative impact on the horse\u2019s welfare.     <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
