[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 690832, member: 539"] Rather than hobbling him, you might consider attaching a free swinging weight of some kind to his front legs so that when he paws it bangs into the back of his legs. We rented a stall to a lady with a high dollar show horse a few years back. Her horse had a tendency to paw when confined to a stall, and she simply put a hobble-like device around his front legs above the knee with a free-swinging weight that would whack him if he pawed. Without addressing the underlying issues of why he is pawing in the first place, I doubt this would teach him not to paw, but it would condition him to not paw when it was on him. [/QUOTE]
