Portable Stalls

[CATUNDERWD <CATUNDERWD@aol.com>]

To tie or not to tie -- that was not the question:~))  For the sake of brevity
I said my horse would not tie.  To clarify - this horse has been hauled to
rodeos, barrel races, ropings (have you figured out she's a QH) and has many a
trail mile on her.  She stands peacefully tied to the trailer munching on hay
for hours at a time 99.99% of the time.  However, twice to be exact, she has
decided she wanted to be somewhere else (not spooked) and sat down and broke
the snap on the lead rope.  Since the horse I wanted to use for distance
riding (my "perfect" horse) was struck by lightning, I'm not big on playing
the odds (and I really do like to sleep at night).    Anyway,  I appreciate
all the good information I've received on tying a horse, but was really
looking for input on the different portable stalls on the market or any
homemade ideas that work.

Thanks!
