Re: [RC] Horse Fencing Help--A Jumper? - Teri HunterYou might want to check all areas. I don't know how big it is but my old quarterhorse (he was 22 at the time) use to meet me at the front kitchen window in the morning. I couldn't figure out how he was getting out. I knew he couldn't jump that high. One day I saw him do it. He was crawling on his belly. It was the funniest thing. You might also want to check the height of the bottom. Just a suggestion.----- Original Message ----- From: "Val Nicoson" <sweetmare55@xxxxxxxxx> To: <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, April 05, 2005 1:36 PM Subject: [RC] Horse Fencing Help--A Jumper? My horse is boarded and is apparently getting through her pasture fence into the forbidden pasture...which is a pasture that has been reseeded and that we don't want to use until it is well re-established. There's good lush green grass there but not well enough established for regular grazing...although my horse is trying to keep in trimmed down <eg>. There is no broken fence line. The fence posts are about 4 ft high with a double strand of electric tape and is situated along the bottom of some hills. We are guessing she is jumping over but haven't found where she's doing that yet as she is not doing this consistently. Is there an inexpensive way of extending the posts higher without having to buy new taller posts? I kinda doubt it but the ingenuity of this group one never knows without asking. Any other ideas appreciated, Val + Sania (loving that sweet green lush grass) =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
