Re: [RC] re: the best method to reform a dedicated puller - Karen SullivanI am very puzzled by all this...how can you not have a horse that ties? Don't you tie the horse to your trailer when you are getting ready at endurance rides? What about riding someplace for lunch (like restaurant), tie the horse outside? What if someone gets hurt and you have to attend to them in an emergency (sure handy if the horses get tied up). I just can't imagine not training or requiring that....don't you ever leave your horse tied and run in the house for something? I just don't get it. To me part of a horse being fully usable means being able to be tied in any situation.....that is good maners also. Karen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jim Holland" <lanconn@xxxxxxx> Ditto..... Ground manners first, saddle manners later. Not a hitching rack or a crosstie on my farm. I never tie for ANYTHING....saddling, wash rack, or grooming. I EXPECT good manners....and I get it. ============================================================ REAL endurance is taking your non-horsey family to a ridecamp with you! ~ Heidi Sowards ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
