Re: tying picket to rear foot

Lauren,

I probably don't have to tell you - but do make sure to teach your horse
to lead by the foot in a round pen before you tie her like this.

I did. And the first time I used it, she got the rubber hose wrapped
near her rear legs and sort of did this rear thing and fell on her back.
Needless to say I was sort of shaken up as this happened within the
first 15 min. Someone told me that instead of snaping the "hose" to the
halter, to use a hobble and put it on her back leg to be the safest.
Haven't tried it yet, but I will.
