It takes quite a few minutes to unhitch a horse completely, especially if you are unfamiliar with the tack. Public stables used to have a huge open area to drive teams of horses right in, and unhitch where it’s warm and dry. Makes sense to get the horse moving and deal with it all indoors. Put it on Mr. Noblanket’s tab. What was he doing for 3 hours? Any guesses? 🕺
Quicker to get out of the weather and into a stable if he catches a ride vs. walking behind the horse.
