I wasn't raised around horses so I know very little about them. I had to learn about the 'lead mare' the hard way once. I went by my neighbor's place and saw his big Belgian horses out in his lawn. He lives by a regularly traveled road and I didn't want a belgian going through someone's windshield, so I stopped and knocked on the door. Nobody home so I found a pail and just a little corn, figuring I could get them that way. Well I caught one and took it to the barn through the walkin door and tied it up in a stall. Then I got the pail and caught another one. This is when I learned about the lead mare cause this is the one I got hold of. I led her through the door to tie her up and all of a sudden a half dozen of these 2000 pound giants were coming in behind her and they were packing themselves in that barn real quick. I had nowhere to go so I scampered up over the hay manger, went outside through another door, ran around the barn and shut the door the horses came in. I thought I was gonna get squished flat against the wall. Well, anyway, I got them back in the barn and away from the road and that's what my goal was. I just didn't plan on it being that exciting.
