Re: RC: Horse in a manger

Does he have enough room in the trailer?  I have a set of bars front
and back in my Brenderup trailer.  Thinking I was doing my guy a
favor, I had the back bar set almost up against him so he could, I
thought, lean back and forth against them.  He would load, but reluc-
tantly, and his legs would be a little trembly sometimes when I un-
loaded him.  I finally moved the bar in the rear back a notch.  He
stopped being reluctant to load, and wasn't shakey legged!  He is able
to spread his hind legs out more, making him more stable.  I guess 
they prefer NOT to lean against anything, as their instinct is to 
keep on their feet on their own.  Just a thought.
