Know Before You Roll! // An Intro to Trailering

When I first started pulling a trailer for my horses, I was really nervous about getting it right and keeping them safe. Here we compile general tips for using a horse trailer including hooking up, maintenance, and keeping your horses safe and comfortable for the ride!
There are many different types of trailers and many different types of horses, so some of your needs may vary!

Another great video, MSER. Proper hitching and maintenance is a _huge_ part of horse ownership. Do it right, and you and your horse can go beyond your own barn. Do it wrong, and it's a bad day for you and your horse (and, hopefully, no one else).

Thank you so much! All very true 👍

What we do especially for the tires is cover them with a tarp to keep the sun from slowly destroying them. I also made some planks for them to sit on which keeps them out of the mud. It also helps to pull the mats out and wash the boards after a few trips which keeps the urine from breaking down the wood. Especially if the boards aren't painted this helps the wood keep its structural integrity.
