Re: RC: Trailor Tie ?

[Laney Humphrey <laneyh@mbay.net>]

Hi All,
    I love my Tralor Tie but, like everything else around horses, requires common
sense!  My advice would be to practice at home so you get a feel for how long you
like the tie rope and use extra caution if your horse is the exciteable type and
likely to freak out about ropes in strange places.  My horse is sensible but moves
around a lot.  He has figured out how to move the rope out of his way as he moves
and how to deal with it if it gets under the saddle (not that I recommend letting
that happen!).  My tie knot has also come undone leaving him free to explore the
campground.  As I said, though, use the same common sense you would use tying your
horse to the trailer or anywhere else.
Cheers, Laney
