How many of you do this, if so, you may want to re-think it2007-11-24 21:15:46

In my last post, paintpony, brought up a another HUGE thing that I thought would be good to post. Not only to avoid hanging halters in reach of horses but how many of you haul to a show or park etc., Bridle up your horse and walk away leaving the halter dangling from the rope at the trailer? For all our horses and their safety, always remove the halter from the lead and place it in your trailer once you have bridled. Especially important when you have more than 1 horse tied at a trailer. You never know, even a loose horse could come along and create a kicking or striking match and you never know who's going to get a hoof in caught up in the halter,

Thanks for the tip, sometime we over look the obvious when we are caught up in the moment. If you got anymore tips like that please share, sometime simple tips like that can save us all a lot of trouble and money in the the future.

Great idea

the only time i bridle my horse is to get on and warm up b4 the next event. otherwise she's on her halter. another good idea is to give them a hay bag instead of giving them a long lead is because my friend did that, and her horse got his foot over it and flipped upside down! thankfully, someone nearby had a pocket knife and cut him loose. he is okay now. you can never be too safe!

Wow I never thought about that and I see it all the time up at the club.
