[RC] Chrystal's Horse :now how to get a horse tojump out of a moving trailer - Katrina MosshammerI remember one year when we went to
a ride and had something like that happen. Back then we had a 16 ft BP stock
trailer, which had a calf door on the back and single divider that was the width
of the trailer that divided it in half. When we left home mom's little 14.2 arab
was in the back and my 15.1 anglo was in the front. We pull into camp after dark
and we get to the back of the trailer and the calf door is wide open and no
horse in the back. Mom FREAKED out! So we frantically go to get my horse out so
she can take the trailer and go see if she can find him on the side of the
road. (note: the arab is an, almost black, bay) We pull my anglo out and lo and
behold there he is hiding in the front of the trailer. Somehow he manage to get
over the center gate, which only has about 2.5 ft clearance from the roof,
without a scratch on him. Rode the ride the next day with out any problems. Now
we always tie our calf door with a rope as well :-)
