Re: Hauling long-distance in a stock trailer


snipped

I *could* wrap them. I normally don't for stall type trailer hauling,
but I am worried about them stepping on each other. Esp. the baby.
Hauler prefers not, due to possibility of dangling, horse eating, wrap
or boot. What about those velcro fastened tall shipping boots? I don't
know if I wrap well enough to send them for ten or more hours without
any attention to the wraps. Uneven pressure, and all. I'd need the
remaining time to get Desi used to boots. Or bandages.

Pizazz, my gelding, just had a hoof surgery recently, and it will take
a year for him to have a front hoof wall again. So he'll certainly go
in his new, very, very expensive, but remarkable, Soft-Ride boot. I
have a horse with orthotics! Hey, should I be putting his other boot on
(hind) so he's balanced. Geez- I never thought of that. Clinic had only
the one on him, but it seems to me...

Maybe I should post that separately?

Haulers tend to "LOSE" or misplace Tack/blankets/halters/leg boots
especially if they have to take them off. They get left at the wrong
destination. I think that is the real reason they don't like the
shipping boots due to the hassle of keeping up with them.
