[haflingerfriends] Re: Fencing on the outside

Hey Marilyn,

Yes if you have just wood fencing you want the boards to be on the inside. but for the safty of the horse in pipecorral, the no climb mesh should be on the outside. they already have the bars of the panel in the way so they can't really 'push' the wire. unless just wth their nose...they have no leverage...
