Blocker Tie Ring
Probably one of the most dangerous
situations for you and your horse occurs when your horse is tied in a
situation which leads to "panic".
"When
a horse backs up against a lead rope or cross tie and finds
himself tied solid, often
he will panic breaking the halter or pulling back hard enough to injure
himself by pulling muscles in his neck or rearranging vertebrae in his
back. The sudden release of a broken halter or tie can flip a horse over backwards...many times
they will hit their head on a post, wall or concrete floor resulting in
serious injury or death".
Any of these scenarios could have been
prevented with The Blocker Knotless Tie Ring. This device prevents
injury to you or your horse; it works WITH the horse by allowing some of the rope
to slip through the tie ring when excessive pressure is placed on the
rope -
releasing pressure AND the source of the panic. If the horse falls in a
trailer, it can pull enough slack to get itself back up.
The Blocker Tie Ring is adjustable: you can
regulate the degree or amount of hold by the size and type of lead rope
used. No more injuries to the horse's neck or vertebrae from pulling
back against the lead. No more injuries, or even death, when the halter
snaps, lead rope or bungee cord breaks, sending the horse against a post
or flipping him backwards over onto a concrete floor.
The Blocker Tie Ring is invaluable in
trailers, answering the age-old question "to tie or not to tie." If a
solid-tied horse falls down in a trailer, it can't get up. With a
Blocker Tie Ring, the horse can solve its own problem without you
risking your life trying to free it.
