Re: horse containment in camp

["Karen Sullivan" <greymare@jps.net>]

I have seen horses liberate themselves from any and all kind of fencing!  I
have seen horses go through electric fence and run through camp......horses
getting caught and injured in portable pipe panels at rides, etc.
Personally, I use electric pens both horse camping and at rides. My horses
are trained to electric pens at home, and NEVER put two horses in one
enclosure!  I do it because I believe they relax and move around more, as
well as lie down.
