Featured Video: Horse Decides He’d Rather Not be in His Stall, Finds Way Out

Have you ever had a horse that just wanted out of his stall? Was the desire to be out so urgent that he took matters on himself? Chunk, a pony at Green Hollow Farm in New Jersey, did just that. As you can see in the video, there was no way he was going to be left in there when he wanted to be out. Or perhaps he was just practicing for the puissance. If your horse has ever escaped on his own, be sure to share the story in the comments.

Chunky should be in the jumping competition. Or let's rename him to "Jumping Bean".

For safety's sake, someone needs a fully closed front on his stall! Little stinker!

My horse Squirt was getting badgered by my husband's mare when we first moved to our new place. My husband ran an errand and when he got back home Squirt was quietly grazing outside while my husband's mare was pacing inside the barn. We wish we had been around to see it, but Seeing this video, I now understand how a trail horse managed to jump out over the Dutch door!

I think that Chuckie needs a stall guard put up for his own safety!
