Re: [RC] LQs and Awnings - Laney Humphrey

maybe I'm too much of a worrywort but I've always assumed that dividers would give some protection for each horse in a terrible crash, or even if I had to slam on the brakes.

What I don't need is slants or dividers in the horse area--I think they
are happier without, and it gives you the option of making a big stall
to get your horse out of the rain or in the case of one night in
Wyoming- the hoards of misquitoes.  With no drop down doors in this
older trailer (the mothership) I had to get in with the horses to water
on the road, so no dividers made life easier.  I have since taken the
dividers out of my newer three horse slant, and I think the horses like
it better- it sure gives them more room.


Laura, I agree.  We have an open-format trailer for which we have built
homemade dividers--but we only use them if we are hauling stallions or
hauling horses that are complete strangers.  If we are hauling our
geldings, or even geldings and mares that know each other, we leave the
dividers out--and they are MUCH happier!
