ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for tying a horse includes a base and a break-away tie element mounted releasably to the base. The base is mounted to a wall and includes a pair of gripping members that are spring-biased against opposite sides of a mounting portion of the tie rod. The spring tension applied to the mounting portion is selectively adjustable. When a horse whose rein is tied to a ring portion of the tie element rears up in a manner applying a sufficient force in a direction tending to pull the mounting portion from the base, the springs will yield, allowing this to occur. Thus, serious injury to the horse is prevented.
