Handy Tie Ring

If your horse pulls back hard against his lead rope when he's tied, he may panic, risking injury. Here's a solution: When pulled hard enough, the Blocker Tie Ring 2 with Mag-Loc allows your horse to put some slack in his lead rope. In a trailer, it allows him enough slack to regain his feet in a fall. Three settings let you choose the amount of pressure that's best for your horse, while a magnet keeps the ring tongue from sliding.

Cost: $24.99.
