Your videos are so good, real, and helpful, thanks so much!

Thanks for the informative videos - love your approach to horsemanship.

Thanks Ted. I never knew about checking the tires in this way and your suggestions will now be part of my "walk -around" check of the rig before hauling. Please consider making a video of the extra supplies you like to have along when traveling on the road with the horses. I wish more people had horses like "Ol' Pete."

I found it interesting that you send a horse in a stall but you lead a horse into a trailer. All very good info, of course, I just found that interesting.

Thank you Ted

Leg wraps are not to prevent a horse treading on itself; they are best utilised to stop one horse standing on another if one horse does not balance well and needs to spread its legs into the area (stall/space) of the other horse. I would be surprised if in 35 years you have not seen this happen? Then again, perhaps your trailers are different in USA? Pete strikes me as a pony who would prefer a ramp. He seems a bit anxious about the floor dropping away behind him. A rough dirt road does wonders for a horse that is not well mannered in a float. Having to concentrate on staying on their feet takes their mind off misbehaving in much the same way breaking does on a tarseal road.

Maybe is a stupid question: wouldn't it be easier to turn the horse in the trailer and make him exit head first instead of backing?

Thankyou for the information Ted

Great information. Thanks.

Good stuff,. Thank you

What would you keep in your first aid kit for your horses

Any suggestions on how to load multiple horses in a stock trailer safely. When you dont have dividers as an option. I have a bumper stock trailer and and my horses were previous hauled in a horse trailer with divider I'm a little nervous for the transition! Advice would be appreciated

I've found that a ramp makes it easier for the horse enter/exit the trailer. Do you use one sometimes?

When you are taking the horse out of the trailer, and since you have room in this particular trailer, why don't you lead him out head first?

sometimes I do lead them out of the trailer...but it is important that they back out too
