My husband's horse is also pretty good at getting untied. We had taken camp down after a ride and temporarily tied the boys to the trailer until after the awards. We were in the lodge (300 yds away) at the awards ceremony. Suddenly, there's a "thump" at the door. Someone opens it, looks into the room and said "The rider of a black horse who is knocking" (4 people stood up) "wearing a blue halter" (2 people standing) "wearing number 125" (all that's left is Mike) "please come to the door. Your horse has a message for you."
It seems as though he untied himself & followed Mike. We hadn't been inside for more than a few minutes. Mike thought that Major carried that loyalty routine a bit too far. We started putting the loose end thru the loop, too and added a trailer tie as a second tie line for short term restraint.
