RE: [RC] Tying to trailer = vanished? :) - Rae CallawayIt is weird, but my guys get very anxious if they can't see their buddies through a trailer.

This revelation has been couched in terms the implication of which are that somehow the horses will be upset because they cannot see their buddies. I'm confused. I mean, we are talking horses here, right? Animals which hear better than humans, have better olfactory senses than humans, like... they can catch the scent/sound of a bear or coyote or mountain lion at well over 1/2 mile while their riders say asinine things like, "Stop being so silly. There's nothing there"... so why would a horse think his buddy had disappeared just because he was 5 feet away on the other side of a lousy trailer? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
