Abstract

A safety device for use with reins for guiding a horse, includes a releasable fastener that allows the ends of the reins to separate in order to reduce the chance that a rider or driver entangled in the reins will be dragged on the ground by the horse or a horse drawn vehicle. The illustrative embodiment of the safety device employs a hook-and-loop fastener.
