This can be done in two ways : First, by buckling one end of a strap around the foot below the fetlock, and the other end to the crosspiece of the shafts, just short enough to hold the foot in a perpendicular position. When the horse tries to step,being unable to carry the foot forward he is rendered helpless. It is always advisable to try a horse before leaving him in this way, as it is barely possible he may lunge for- ward upon three legs if badly frightened; but only wild, impulsive fel- lows are liable to do this. Another way is to simply tie the fore legs together, as seen in the cut. This method is specially valuable in making saddle-horses stand without hitched. It is also important to be able to hitch a horse to a tree or smooth post in such a manner as to prevent the cord from slipping down. Above I give an illustration of a method for doing this, which is so plain that it does not need any further Fig. 209. - IIow to hitch a horse to a tree or smooth post si) that the strap or cord will not untie or slip Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Magner, D.
