I'm about 90 percent sure on these, I think for the 4th question its Winter because its quite cold or Fall because they don't go into here stables yet, but its quite cold, and I also saw blankets on some Horses over here. On number 5 I think its angry, don't know why. Remember, I'm not sure. |

This could also include spring & fall, especially for a "clipped" show horse

6 - When you tie your horse to a post, you should:
None of these
There is a certain type of knot that will tighten when the horse tugs but can be released one handed, but I doint remember what its called

It's called a quick release knot or Highwayman's hitch. It functions so that if the horse pulls it's end, it gets tighter, but if you pull the other end it unravvels. It's not the best option because a strong horse can jam the knot in a panic, but if you're on your own it's better than nothing. |
