how to teach ground tie?

Post by jimbo&rooster » Wed Dec 14, 2011 4:34 pm

Ive got a mare that I am bringing along to work dogs and hopefully do some FT. My problem is I do most of my training by myself and would like to be able to train from this mare. the big issue is that my ridding boots aren't the most comfortable walking boots so Id like her to ground tie or at least hang out while i handle the dogs....

So what is the best way to teach a horse to ground tie? Ive got a round pen to work in and I do have some one to help me.

A limit on the strap is nice, but the kill has nothing to do with tradition.
