I'm a Newbie who found H&H while watching Heartland. I have no horse or hound but I do have questions and like to learn new stuff. I'm an old guy, a problem solver and a known asker of questions frequently considered to be inept ... but they often cause folks to think outside the box. I wondered why horses don't fall over in trailers on stops and starts and curves and then on the H&H Forum I found that they can and do fall and/or lose balance. So being a car guy with Zero horse knowledge I wonder: 1] what kind of suspension does a horse trailer have; is air suspension, load leveling, or maybe torsion bar suspension used, 2] what kind of vibration is in the trailer floor for the hoofs to feel, 3] what kind of vibrations does the horse hear while travellng, 4] is noise canceling technology used in a horse trailer, 5] what about foreign odors in the trailer during transit ... there is air purification tech avail that can remove all odors and pathogens ... Heartland says horses are sensitive/emotional beings. Last question ... what do humans use to stay happy while cooped up on a road trip? I'm really looking forward to learning more about horses ... and hounds. Thanks for my opportunity and as a Patriotic American I'll close with Have a GREAT American Day!
