Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 How to tie a horse in a standing stall? This is my problem. I understand a rope from either side is the idea. Preferably lightly weighted, so they remain as short as possible, yet will run out long enough to allow the horse to lay down. Trouble is; My stalls are old fashioned cattle stalls. The side walls aren't high enough to get a rope at the height needed to allow sufficient length. (I'm assuming, if you're reading this and may be capable of solving it, then you'll be able to grasp what I'm saying. Anyone else's mind will probably have melted already! My own's not far off! ) I'm really wondering if there'd be any way of rigging a suitable works in front. Horses would be facing a higher wall, in front. And, that wall is across a narrow walk way. What ye reckon? Two, widely spaced, rings, higher in that wall? Form a sort of 'V' to the horses head. Rather than the more usual - Horses head - affair. Well, thanks for your patience, while I just talked myself through that one. I'll go out there, presently, and shall stand and look at the wall. It'll probably help a great deal to be looking at the situation. Could I not just use a single, counter weighted, rope? Chain behind the horse, to stop it backing out of the stall? If not; Why not? Be really glad of any, more knowledgeable, input. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Why are you tying it over nite Because the open pen they're in has become untenable, due to the failing weather. But, left loose in the cow shed? They'd just wreak havoc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackbriar 8,569 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 She hasn't been on here for a while, but I know LaraCroft is a horse-loving lady. You could try a PM? Just a suggestion, mate, as help doesn't seem to be forthcoming. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Cheers, BB. I'll give that a try I've spoken to a horse woman friend of mine, on another forum. Frankly? It's amazing the low levels of apparent knowledge left on this subject! Time was ~ when horses were more common that vans, I s'pose ~ there were shit loads of horses left to quietly stand in a stall for the night. Much like a motor put in a garage. Like thousands of people tethered their horses, on a chain and collar, to graze on unfenced land. Now seen as unthinkable, by the chattering classes. F**king world's gone mad alright. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gonetoearth 5,144 Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Cow stall can easily converted by adding rail to the top and a loose chain across the front or a recoil nylon tape Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Outlaw Pete 2,224 Posted September 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Now we're talking! I've just a cob and a donkey. Cob, obviously, is laid back as all hell. They just find mischief and grief to cause, when they get in the mood. Could ye give me a few pointers on the 'Over Head' principle, please? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
