Moving Dreamer today to the new yard, he is generally ok with travelling but was just wondering if other people have a horse/pony that likes to bite his travelling companion?

Haynets don't work because he gets bored with them!
It doesn't matter how tight we tie him because he'll just pull and pull until he can reach (he's pretty flexible).

Today we are resorting to putting him in a graxing muzzle in the hope that he won't be able to bite...but I'm still sure he'll find a way!

Should also say he can't travel alone because he gets quite anxious!

You could try cross tying if you don't have any face grills to stop him nipping his neighbour. Could you travel in a 7.5 wagon with a space inbetween them?
Not best practical but may solve your problem if you are travelling for a long distance.
