Re: [RC] Introducing your horse to a crupper - Marirose Six









All I can say is I don't like to look back and see the crupper flopping

around.

It seems to me if there's that much movement, that would be annoying and

maybe

even cause friction rubs.  I adjust it so there's a bit of give, but so

that

when the horse is standing still the crupper goes straight from the

crupper

ring to the tail, NOT in a C-shape off to one side.



I agree with you, Sharon. I keep the crupper snug also (on  my mules &
horses). I think that if it's dangling there loose that it would be a much
bigger 'surprise' when it comes tight going down a hill. Also, by the time
it would get tight, the saddle must have moved forward quite a ways.
