No. You should not tie a knot when your horse is going to be tied to a post. You should always tie a loose not just in case the horse gets spooked or frightened. Never ever tie a tight not. I

When tying a horse to the hitching post, you should make a slip-knot. You can find a diagram on how to make a slip-knot by maybe using Google or Bing. You want to make a slip-knot because if something happens when you are interacting with your horse, say if your horse spooks or a car is heading for your horse, you can pull the end of the knot and it will break free so the horse can run away safely and quickly. By using the slip-knot method, you AND your horse will not be in danger of things that you can't move away from quickly because if you tied him up with just a regular old square knot, you would have to have some pretty fast fingers to untie that kind of knot.
The knot should be tight so the horse can't pull it loose, but make sure the knot is a quick release knot and never leave a tied horse alone, because if he were to panic and no one was there to release him, he could break a halter/lead rope, which would teach him bad habits, or even worse, he could hurt himself.
When training a horse, you wanna tie a knot that is tighter but will give. but if you are talking about a trained horse, you should be able to just tie it loose. so if the horse does spook it can get away. because if the horse does spook and cannot get away, the horse will go into flight mood and will more than likely break the halter of lead and run for a long time; where as if the horse can get away he/she might run away from the post, but will more than likely stop before he/she gets to far. u should tie your horse up with a quick release knot
you can as long as you tie the correct knot which i am unsure of. I believe a quick releases knot would work but is it really worth a horse to take that chance? always realize the consequences with horses! Try to avoid tying a horse to a post and keep their time on it minimal!
When tying a horse to a post, make sure that you have some string attached to it, so that if they pull back and theyre a strong horse, then the post wont go flying off with them too. Also their is a 'slip knot' or a 'safety knot' that most people use incase of emergancies, this ensures that you can just give a lttle tug on the end of the rope , then the horse will be free. To secure this knot , you put it through the hoop atfter doing the knot, then it is very tight and will not break unless you physicallly take the end of the rope out of the hoop. x
If you are asking about training a horse to stand still while tying you should never tie a horse up tightly. To begin with the young horse should be taught to stand still while a human holds the rope, afterward you can simply loop it through a tie ring. If the horse pulls back it learns it will not hurt itself due to the slack and be less afraid of being tied. As the horse progresses, you can and should teach it to stand tied with the rope fastened into a quick release knot. Tying a horse up tight to anything can result in the horse destroying the object in an attempt to get away, the horse pulling or injuring muscles in it's neck or back, or even the horse breaking it's neck.
