The case of the missing halter.
The victim.

Wildairo was found wandering around butt naked and disheveled. Closer inspection revealed he was missing his break-away halter.
I was hot on the case. Wildairo followed me around acting really crazy,' probably traumatized by his ordeal,' I first thought. Several times he raced off bucking (with sound effects) and galloping about like he'd gone insane. One time he almost slammed into the rock wall. (Note to self; change their feed).
The Crime Scene.

One broken break-away underneath a well worn scratching tree.

The Evidence.

Conclusion.
Wildairo was innocently having a good scratch on this old dead tree, when it leaped out and grabbed his halter. Lucky for us Wildairo was wearing a break-away halter so he was able to run like hell and leave the tree with it's prize. Break-away halters really do break-away.

LOL! That's great! I love your stories, Arlene!
That's funny! Good thing he had a breakaway halter though, or it might not have been funny...
Boy, I bet my horses would love to have an old root ball like that to scratch on.
I agree! Good thing it was a break-away halter! Merry Christmas to you and your family.
