The other day Halley got out twice and she let me catch her, not big deal!! I was just wondering if any of your horses have ever get out??

Reno got out about a week after I got to where I could touch her, and she didn't have a halter on. About an hour, a lot of mud, and a broken finger later, she was back in her pasture.

last time my mare got loose (untied herself when I wasn't looking) she ran to the arena at full blast... all I could do was laugh.. I guess she wanted to roll on the soft ground.

yes, my mare has gotten out twice. The first time, the barn doors were colsed so she couldn't get out. But she got into the grain bags and opened them all on the floor. Then she at we think about 20 daily de-wormers. I went into the barn to find my horse in the middle of the walk way eating hay, everything was a mess. I was crying becuase I thought she was gona die of colic.

So then, she got out again like 3 months later and the doors were open. She was found in the other barn across the way with her boyfriend shaker. I have no idea what she did, but she loves getting loose.

Yes, my mare has gotten out of her pasture once.

But she is never the difficult one to get back in. Her 'boyfriend', who is rough boarded, so he does not wear a halter, just has one hanging near-by, inside the barn, has trampled me twice to get out as I take her out. As he does not have a halter on, and is not very well broke, it is difficult to get him back in before he decides the grass is greener about a mile down the road and takes off...
I don't like halters on horses constantly because they often rub and irritate their faces, but on this horse, sometimes you really think it would really be an asset...

About 2 weeks after 3 boarders came here, The TB filly got her outside door open, and let the other horse out they ran up the road and ppl caught them, and fed them potatoes...lol..everyone had been joking about the horses getting loose and running down Prince St. I was at my friends at the time, called home to tell them i was gonna come home and my sis answered the phone and said the horses are loose. We didn't belive her tho..lol...but they had gotten loose, sorry to bore you to death...lol

Oh yeah... My mare once learned how to open her stall door with her upper lip, too. She got out so many times and just kept being found roaming the aisleways that the barn manager eventually switched the latch-type-lock on her door to a more clip-type-lock. Now she can't get out, but will still try to prevent you from closing the door by sticking her upper lip between the bars as you try to shut the door and flinging it back open. LOL.

Every so often my horses get loose due to lack of attention on my family's part *rolls eyes* but I can't let it happen often because we live on an old highway. But here's a story for ya......

My mom, two sisters, & I were driving on a backroad to go pick up a desk we had found in the paper. Well, we turned around a corner and there in the middle of the street was a beautiful black Percheron mare....just standing there with a halter and her lead dangling down!! I practically jumped out of the car with it still moving and my sister and I walked up to her. Well, she started going down the street and kept trippin on her lead and ******** out!! There was this old lady in a car where she was heading, and all she would do is peak out her window and ask Q's like "Is she your's??" and then quickly close the door. Thanks for the help, huh? Well she stopped shortly(the mare) and I grabbed her lead and brought her to the nearest house while my other sister talked to the neighbor and found out that this was indeed their horse. So here I am standing in the middle of hicks-ville with this huge, black, beautiful Percheron mare who is very, very upset and her owners weren't even home! Now why would anyone leave their new beautiful mare at home with her halter and lead on....I mean, did they tie her up and leave?????? Somethings I will never understand....

My colt and an Arab got out. I knew something was wrong when I seen the police a few houses away with a really green pasture, so I went to the barn and sure enough they were gone. I went back to the police and asked if they had seen to sorrel horses. They pointed towards the field and there they were having a great old time. I guess they were saying sometimes the grass is greener on the other side. LOL
