Heavy equine hobbles are required to control horses' legs when packaging for transport and in some instances, when extricating from confined spaces. Hobbles are carried on Rescue-1 and Rescue-3. (On Rescue-1 they are stored in the locker box labeled, "Rescue Glide Box 2".)
On Rescue-1 the hobbles are stored on the right-hand rear door.
On Rescue-3 the hobbles are stored in the box labeled "Rescue Glide Box 2."
Hobbles are also useful when rolling a horse over due to time spent down or to load onto the Rescue Glide.
For more information regarding the application of heavy equine hobbles, please visit Technical Sheet #14,
Packaging a Downed Horse for Transport.
