I’m not talking to ewe.

LOLcats strikes again;  kitty has a little lamb…

Axel Draft Part 2

Axel chain draft on an easy entry cart. This allows an appropriate draft for the neck collar for maximum pulling efficiency. Purple lines show the line of draft, from collar to cart.

Putting it all together – finally.   The picture is poor in it’s angle, the shafts are actually quite level despite the apparent pictured slant.  The purple lines indicate the collar and trace; illustrating the line of draft.     The mini donkey was able to move out and pull adults quite easily.

The harness and neck collar was purchased through Chimacum Tack ( http://chimacumtack.com/ ).  It’s of excellent quality and workmanship made of synthetic material, that is soft and easy care.  I customized the mini donkey harness package with adjustable hip drops, short tugs off of the hames, brown rein lines and nose band loops on the bridle.   I highly recommend Chimacum Tack in their outstanding customer service (thanks Janie!).  I was really pleased how cart and harness came together and now work easily for an appropriate line of draft.
