Helping fix a strap

When I haul cattle in my stock trailer I put a strap on the lower half of the back of the trailer.  That is because the back door only has a latch on the upper half.  I am leery that somehow the cattle will push hard on the door and it will come off or open on the bottom.  So I attach a strap or two on the lower half of the trailer when I haul cattle.

The last time I hauled cattle the large yellow strap was jamming up and hard to use.  So I used two other smaller straps for the trip.  Later I had to unwind the yellow strap all the way from the catch / tightener.  It took some time to unwind it so Daisy decided to help me.  Eventually we got the strap all unwound and rethreaded and fixed.
