Ok so just musing really. The horse is in Newmarket and had surgery today to remove a splint bone fracture. We took her in my friends lorry and the difference was incredible. We had a camera and she stood rock solid still the entire journey.
We have an older Richardson trailer that we use without the partition and cross tie. She's tied short enough that she can't turn around but we can see her through the window (and hubby has travelled behind) and she moves quite a bit as she stands to one side then tries to look over her shoulder behind her and then moves to the opposite side to look over the other one. Obviously this makes quite a bit of movement?
Short of buying a lorry what do you lovely people suggest? Would it worry or upset you? I can't tow and dad is quite anxious when towing as she is a fidget.
Edited to add: I don't want to tie her stupidly short that she can't physically move her head.
