This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've been following the thread ot trailering terrors. My question is how were the horses standing in the trailer? Slant load? Straight load? Stock trailer?
I use a stock trailer and my horses brace themselves every which way to ease fatigue. The longest I have driven without a break for the horse was about 12 hours. That particular mare likes to rest one hip against the center gate. She unloaded just fine and was 100% after she got to roll. My other mare likes to go diagonal facing the rear. I think forced confinement causes lots of problems. Think about the last time you took a Greyhound Bus anywhere. Peaceful Holidays to All. Pamela Garofalo
