Jay said: One of my minis was afraid when the pole touched him because it was lower than the shafts and unexpected. I grounddrove him in an open bridle and a friend held a broom handle that I attached to the collar. Hi Jay Thanks for your advice. Linda contacted me with her suggestions for a pvc pole and that's what I am going to do. Glad to hear your pair is doing good.
