. Manual of operative veterinary surgery. Veterinary surgery. 26 MEANS OF Fig. 14.—Securing all the Legs, with Eope all around tlie Animal. invented by Eaabe and Lunel—the hippo-lasso (Fig. 15). This apparatus is called the straight jacket for horses, by the inventors, and is composed of a strong breast-piece or Dutch collar, and a breeching, placed over the withers and the croup. The breeching carries on each side, firmly sewn on, a long strap, and at each point, B, an iron eyelet. The breast-piece at B, carries also on each side an iron eyelet, and on the front strap a strong buckle. To place it ia position, the Dutch collar is thrown over the neck and the breeching laid over his rump. Both straps of this part of the hippo-lasso are passed forward through the iron eyelet of the breast-piece at B, back through that of the breeching at B, and then forward agaia to be buckled, more or less tightly, at h. The length of the strap of the Dutch collar piece which passes over the neck, and that of the croup, must be regulated in such a manner that the horizontal position of the lasso is for the fore legs, but a little below the forearm, and between the stifle and the hock for the hiud legs. The hippo-lasso is an excellent means of restraint, and may even be utilized for vicious animals upon which operations would otherwise be impossible, except by throwing them. In shoeing.
