I tied Okie to the trailor (when I still had it) awhile back and went to the barn to get something. I turned around and he was following me. He popped the clip in two. I've mentioned If I leave him too long with a slip knot he'll try to untie himself. I have to keep it up high because he will try to use his foot. He hardly moves once he's loose. I think he just likes undoing them. When he was sitting back at the wash rack I would wrap the rope several times. One boarder was fussing because she said if he tries to sit back I should undo him and should be able to untie him and always carry a knife. To me letting him go would defeat the purpose and let him know he could get loose. I figured if he fell he could get up and would just let him tire himself out. It worked because he doesn't do it to me anymore but was that being mean to him? The ferrier didn't turn him loose either and Okie was raising his legs for him before he quit.
