Re: [RC] Horse confinement at rides.. - Betsy O'Shea

I too started with NATRC so have always tied to the trailer and felt my
horse was secure and safe. In the beginning, I tied my lead rope to a
bicycle inner tube, so if the horse pulled back, they got a boing boing
effect and this cured the pulling back.  Then I used the "leader" stretchey
lead rope.  Now I have a hi-tie and my horse likes that better because he
can look around and see whats going on.  I have an electric fence coral kit,
and have never used it. I would never put my horse in a portable coral panel
system .  I have been to vet teaching hospitals and seen horses with broken
legs.  They got them cought under the panels.JMO
