Re: [RC] [RC] [RC] Trailer Advise - Juli Jakub

Thanks. All my horses load and trailer great, but accidents happen with even the most well trained steed! Or god forbid a car accident where it may be impossible to get them all out of the slant through the back....you never know. But I know people deal with it as I see tons of three horse slants everywhere. It was just an issue I was thinking about.

<style> </style> </head> <body bgcolor="#ffffff"> <div>Practice and think about personalities of the horses. I loaded 4 into my 4 horse stock trailer. Used the divider in the front but no divider in back. Learn which ones are buddied up and which ones intimidate others. Load accordingly. NOT easy but did it alone. Then there is training. I found Parelli a yr ago and he has GREAT methods.

I have a Jamco two horse straight load. We now have three horses...they keep showing up I don't know how it happens! ; ) We are thinking of trading in for a three or four horse slant. I was wondering how you deal with it if the inner horse freaks out. It seems cumbersome and dangerous to have to unload all the horses to deal with the horse having a problem and if you are trailering four with only two people it is hard to hold all the horses and have one person dealing with the problem. I am use to four horse head to head straights, but we totally cannot afford that! Just wondering opinions on this.

I like a slant load &gt;because you can walk in with each horse, tie'em, close the &gt;partition, walk in the next, etc. without needing an escape door. I &gt;would get a small living quarters right away if you can afford it &gt;cause you will be much more comfortable. I bought a TrailsWest &gt;because it seemed very well made, rubber on the floor, walls, rear &gt;door, very solid divider (2 horse), 25gal water tank, thick epoxy &gt;paint, lots of lights, 4 wheel electric brakes, add a high-tie of &gt;some kind on each side and you are set. These babies are heavy &gt;(8000lbs with 2 horses and gear for my trailer) so you need a heavy &gt;duty truck. Good Luck &gt; &gt;Don Huston &gt; &gt; &gt;=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= &gt; &gt;Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, <a href="http://www.endurance.net. &gt;Information";>http://www.endurance.net. &gt;Information</a>, Policy, Disclaimer: <a href="http://www.endurance.net/Ridecamp &gt;Subscribe/Unsubscribe";>http://www.endurance.net/Ridecamp &gt;Subscribe/Unsubscribe</a> <a href="http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/logon.asp &gt; &gt;Ride";>http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/logon.asp &gt; &gt;Ride</a> Long and Ride Safe!! &gt; &gt;=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= &gt; </BLOCKQUOTE> =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, <a href="http://www.endurance.net";>http://www.endurance.net</a>.
