While every horse should learn to feel comfortable when tied up to a fixed object, there are relatively few times when I recommend you do it.

ALWAYS LEAVE THEM WANTING MORE

Ross Jacobs

Training

Good horse people often say, “If in doubt, do less”. If a person does too much, it is over and done with and can’t be taken back. But if you do less, you can always do more if you need to. This concept is incorporated in the idea, ”Always leave them wanting more.”
