[QUOTE="sjr725, post: 415559, member: 4936"] Mine don't actually "ground tie" like they won't move an inch or anything like that - but when I have to get off and leave them for a minute - I just tie the lead rope to a front pastern - kind of a quickie hobble- they couldn't run like that but they can mosey around and eat some grass, I guess they could walk off? but not too fast. I believe in hobble breaking all my colts, so I think because they are used to being hobbled - if I just tie the lead to a front leg - they just associate that with the hobbles. If I'm going to have to leave them for more than a few minutes I go ahead and slip the hobbles on or find a tree and tie them. I don't really trust them to stand for very long - and I'm always a long way from the trailer and don't like to walk! [/QUOTE]
