How to tie up a horse

[@lushaddict7400]

I've watched like 5 videos and this is the only one that has worked thank you so much!

Do not use this. It's not a quick release if the horse pulls back and is panicking plus the presenter seemed to have the rope in a circle around her hand at the beginning. That's never safe either. Good way to lose your fingers.

Thanks that really help me to improve my skills with a horse ! Thanks

[@elliewoodley666]

It is always best to have bailing twine and a quick release knot. If your horse panics in any way then they will be released quickly. This video is perfect for people to learn how to tie up a horse correctly. You never know what might happen to your horse, and you only want the best for your horse.

[@KeepCalmAndSparkle91]

the bankrobbery knot is even better, just one pull and it's undone, this one she showed here xou have to pull and then still slide the end through the stupid baling twine

[@nickyg7955]

exactly not so quick release!

[@tashinawilkie7118]

BEST SIMPLE VIDEO EVER!!!!

[@silversunny]

why u watching this if you know how to do it

This is exactly how I taught my horse not to panic when tied up. Everybody else in the stable had problems with their horses panicking and breaking halters. I tied mine to a string (different knot though), he panicked, the string broke... and he was like, oh? I tied him to a new piece of string, same thing happened a few times, then he'd start to play with the rope, just pull it enough to have some tension in it, then playfully break the string... then it was time to just tie him to whatever object it was and he wouldn't panic. Never had any problems with him being tied up anymore. I'd say that this is not how you tie up a horse, it's how you TEACH a horse to be tied up without panicking.

How are they meant to get away if there’s a fire then huh? You just gonna let it burn to death?

[@susra313]

@@maisiejenner9827 What does fire have to do with tying up a horse? In case of any danger I'd just pull the quick-release knot of course. People I know don't keep their horses tied up when they leave. I think you're mistaking panic for a reason with panic for just being tied up.

"crazyhorselover1121" you call yourself a horse lover but you dont even know how a quick release knot works hshsha! i am sorry but i find that so rediculous... even though you dont think so "crazyhorselover1121" this is a great video and very educational. they even explain the part about the binder twine

[@tashinawilkie7118]

YES!!!

[@celestemckenzie2727]

wow-so much hostility. :-(

[@farthereast54]

Try not to prove your own point, horseygirl. Baling twine is entirely appropriate as a "fuse" that will let go before the horse injures himself. Neck injuries can end a horse's career, whether through subluxation of vertebrae or damage to soft tissue. Damage to nerves, particularly the trigeminal nerve, can end a horse's very life. I speak from personal experience. Better a loose horse than a dead one. Your sarcasm is ill-informed.

[@GerryCoxHorsemanship]

With all due respect.. THAT is a HORRIBLE Knot with a Horrible lead rope.... If that horse pulled back at all that rope would cinch down and you'd never get it to slip. As for the Twine 'idea', Terrible thought.. Planting the seed in a horses mind that a quick pull back gets FreeDom is not a good goal. Get a good yacht cord rope and learn to tie the Bow-Line Knot... Never gets tight, loosens if the horse steps forward and pull able even with a strain... Sorry, not to be critical.. but this isn't a good one...

[@GerryCoxHorsemanship]

Raven Lee Again, I meant no disrespect and I did read the attached article, which in itself shows Five different horses tied Five different ways with Five different ropes. The ropes shown I would simply toss in the trash, ragged and frayed and soft cotton which with the slightest amount of moisture will swell and bind on itself and a "Slip-Knot" of your example will never release, nor a bowline knot of my preference and suggestion. As for the break-away string, it is my "HUMBLE" opinion that a horse should be 'taught to tie' but to have a break-away string may (and will) encourage a horse that ever hit it to hit it again to break away, however a horse that has been 'taught' would perhaps pull to the point of resistance and stop puling. But I DO understand the fear and the danger of a pull-back horse. The article simply says "use slip knots and panic snaps" but doesn't define either. Again, my humble opinion is you should learn to use a BowLine knot, NOT the one you suggested in your video. Additionally I would advise anyone to trash a rope of that type and style and invest in a safer yacht cord quality rope that will actually slip in a slip know scenario. So, if you are going to pass on safety advice pass it on and suggest yacht cord and a bowline, not that "junk cotton rope and pinch' knot you showed... I'm just a 'little' on the fence with the break-away scenario and realize ANY horse, even your favorite dead broke horse can panic... My horse FREAKED at a show last year when he saw his First Mule!! He Pulled back at the trailer... HARD!!!! We all stepped back, never said a word, and in 2 seconds he knew he was Stuck and stopped... This a result of 'teaching a horse to tie" not ever planting the seed that a Good Panic Will Get You FREEDOM! THAT is more responsible...

[@emmalealundgren2430]

Excatly what I thought

[@GerryCoxHorsemanship]

I sure mean no disrespect, but I also want to point out as another safety measure and this happened to a neighbor girl within the past 3 weeks... never put a wadded over (loop) of a rope through a tie ring .and grab it.. always push the Tail of the rope through. 3 weeks ago a girl pushed the loop pf a rope through on her gentle old horse, grabbed the loop with all of her 4 fingers and fro some WEIRD reason the horse suddenly and maniacally Pulled back Instantly and it pulled the rope back in an Instant and pulled ALL Four of her fingers through the tie ring and Broke them OFF!! She shared photos of 4 fingers hanging by skin.. this is some one I know and she is a fairly accomplished horseman... Just saying.. But I'd toss that rope you have and get some good yacht cord rope...

[@lisadacat100]

tying a horse with bailing twine? All that will do is encourage the horse to pull back when he spooks so he can break away. Instead how about you train your horse to stand calmly when something spooky happens.

[@lisadacat100]

It is dangerous to train a horse to pull back and escape from being tied. If you train properly your horse will stand, even when spooked, because he knows he can not get away. I started a 6 year old mustang this past summer and he learned to tie within the first couple days of being handled. He has never hurt himself or anyone else when he has got spooked when he is tied. The worst he has done is pulled back and when he realized he was tied came right back. If he were on "Panic snaps" he would have gotten away and learned that it is the correct answer to pull back and run away from scary things. If people just spent the time with their horses the horse world would be a much safer place. But instead people would rather take the faster and "safer" rout, the rout that in the end WILL get people and horses hurt.

[@cassiewhite4881]

This is not a correct quick release knot! And not the BHS way of teaching it. If the horse pulls it just tightens around the string!

[@MissMorbid0725]

I think it's "rediculous" that you don't know how to spell ridiculous.

[@bettyboop6750]

The lead needs to be long enough so the horse can reach the floor for water

[@thehorseygirl5518]

Wow. I guess human stupidity has no limits. Bailing twine! Lol. This method of tying is dangerous. The slip knot is great, but string?! Wow, just wow.

[@gerrycoleman7290]

Well that shows your ignorance. You do not tie up a horse until the horse knows how to tie. You do not want the horse learning that if he pulls back he can get away. When he knows how to tie, you tie him to a secure object and do not leave him alone. You are there in case there is a problem to be able to help him.
