Fence

When they want out….

why did they want out so badly?

I with you Jean ,the story is in the telling . I once had 2 geldings in a smallish paddock with a 2 yo fresh as can be filly . Well one of the geldings escaped the filly over a 4 ft high board gate nothing broken, horse or wood . I could see marks but after 2 times decided it
weren’t a good match .

I SWEAR I’ve heard my horses laughing under their breath about how fences aren’t really rules… they’re more like guidelines. My 7mo bull calf thinks they’re more like challenges!

My haflingers did something very similar to this their first day here. I am keeping them in a dirt roundpen while I wean them onto the grass, and I forgot to turn on the hotwire (well, technically I turned it on but forgot to hook the handle on the gate which gave juice to their section)

They busted through a post and rail fence and a two strands of wire and were happily running amok on the pasture. Guess I learned my lesson. They hadn’t seen grass in three years or so. I knew they’d do it which was why I hotwired the round pen especially for them. Then forgot to turn it on (palm to forhead)
