[QUOTE="VCC, post: 601947, member: 6399"] You have to watch leaving the rope halters on them all the time, if they are the rope halter and lead, they can get real sore between the toes where the rope will end up can also increase the chance of foot rot. The constant stepping on the halter and jerking their head every time they step is counter productive to trying to teach them to lead. We have a small catch pen we run them into and halter them before we work them each time, plus it is easier to break them using the rope halter with the metal ring, it allows the halter to loosen up we they stop resisting, they learn fast if they don’t pull it doesn’t pinch. We used to leave halters on them for the first couple of days but found that even in that short period of time it could cause problems. Good luck at take your time, it will all work out. [/QUOTE]
