Hobbles

[Dovorian]

I was recently asked if I knew where hobbles could be bought - amazingly I've come up with nothing. Does anyone else have any ideas?

 

[chriscrogul]

There were some on ebay recently!

 

[Pasha]

I'm sure I saw some in one of the mail order catalogues - would have been one of the usual suspects - maybe Robinsons?

My friend can make some and post them she is a master saddler in Sussex area, if you would like me to send you her details pm me.

I am sure I have seen them in robinsons. I havent ever seen anyone use them before, under what circumstances are they used?

 

[Dovorian]

Usually to prevent a horse straying whilst out trekking (qv Longriders Guild ), or in this case to try to teach a very difficult pony not to charge through fencing (including p&R!)

Are our horses related? Hobbles did cross my mind for my boy, but I though they might panic him more and cause injury
