It is best for horse and pony owners who tie up at the stable, on the yard, in the wash bay or at the lorry and trailer, and it is supplied as a pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstead of the horse fighting a solid tie ring, the fastener gives way under pressure, which helps to minimise potential serious injuries if the horse continues to struggle.
