Hi, I was wondering if anyone had a horse that pulled when tied and what you 
did when they were tethered at an over night ride? I just got this horse in 
Jan. and he will stand ok with a benice halter and a good rope and a solid post 
but I am afraid of what he will do on a tether. We camp often and will be going 
to overnight rides. By tether I mean a rope between two poles or trees tied 
over head with a knot elimanator. We use a strong rope but I am not sure if it 
will hold him if he throws back and don't want to find out in the middle of the 
night. Any suggestions are appreciated. {He is an Arab and very smart}Thanks 
pattie h.

===========================================================Just because someone 
tells you that your horse isn't "fit" for
endurance...doesn't mean it isn't, it just means your horse isn't fit to be
"their" endurance horse! Go for it, you never know what you'll accomplish
with that "saddle horse" or "trail horse" of YOURS!
