Arabs AREN't Dumb

Someone wrote:.....Moral to the story: either install
mesh to prevent this, or hang the gate with lag bolts (shaped like an L when
installed on the gate post) in opposing directions, the lower one facing up,
the upper one facing down

......um, my Arab mare used to stick her head through the gate, with the lag
bolts installed as described and shake her head up and down until said gate
bent the lag bolts.  Mare's favorite game: detach gate from lag bolts, slide
gate off of neck, go
looking for fun.  The go looking for fun part is how I got the Arab gelding
I ride today.  She went looking for my stud.......
