oh dear lord... you would not have a problem breeding my mare right about now... (scares me i hope no random stallion finds his way to her right now) she would pretty much do anything to be breed, she is even teaseing the two gelds out with her... around here we call her the barn #@*$... or +!+%*... or tonight it was mc slutty! love her to death but she is BADDLY in heat right now and has been for already a week.

But if i were to ever bred her(never happening though if i have anything to say about it) i would be fine with the stallions owners wanting her hobbled... as long as they would spend the time to train her to hobble first.. i personally have never used them or seen them being used. But if they would take the time then it would be ok in my books. so long as she was in heat and ready..

But my perfered way to breed is just to let them out in a pasture together and then them do it them selves with out anyone standing there watching and holding them... my old coach/trainer did that... and i liked it alot better. although i haven't seen it done differently other then that way so i can't really talk then i guess.
