[QUOTE="Hippie Rancher, post: 239484, member: 4203"] stout leads/ropes and even stouter things to tie to. hobbles can do wonders too. When I was a kid I had a spoiled barrel horse (not from me!) that would pull all kinds of nonsense, but this story is about tying him. First he broke the snap on the lead, so I tied it in a knot to the halter, then he broke the lead itself so I used a heavy chain, then he broke the halter so I put the chain around his neck. Then he pulled the top rail off the hitching post my dad had made for him. So we chained him to one of the uprights and he pulled 300 pounds of concrete out of the ground. :mad: :mad: :mad: He never really ran off - he would wander away if you didn find him, but he just did not want to be tied! After that I just left him in the pen when I wasn't with him. If I had another like that I would try the rope around the chest or maybe I would just let the SOB choke himself, not sure. [/QUOTE]
