hog1 holder
a flexible wire cable is welded to one end of a strong steel tube, looped on itself and passed up the tube. At its emergence a crossbar handle is fixed. The loop is passed over the hog's upper snout and the cable is pulled tight. The person pulling on the holder pulls one way, the hog pulls the other and complete restraint is achieved, that is provided the hog does not decide to rush forwards.
