    Rear unload trailers

    Sorry I don't quite understand that. So if they tend to reverse with their bum to the off side, I should turn their heads which way to unload?

    Rear unload trailers

    I'm lookig at a new trailer and I've seen one that is rear unload so the horses have to come off backwards. Does anyone have any experience of this? My horse has hardly ever travelled in a trailer so I can't comment on how he would be but he does tend to rush off a little bit on the few...

    What would you say a competent novice can do

    Wow! You remind me of that scene in Pride and Prejudice when Mr Darcy states what he thinks a truly accomplished woman is.......and is told it is a wonder he knows any! Some of things are quite a big ask as it really depends on the horse the person has been using. I agree with most things...

    Horse still bucking WWYD?

    Have you had the dentist recently? I had issues with mine where he was edgy about being mounted, fine in walk but awful in trot and throwing head up, became lame and very stiff. Physio found nothing, saddle fitter checked and reflocked saddle with no improvement. Eventually worked out it was...
