Preparing for the Drive

There are many reasons to bring animals along for the ride, whether commercially or recreationally. Animals riding in trailers has always been a dangerous situation, even with the best of care. First, take time prior to the drive to make sure your animals willingly load and unload and stand quietly when in the trailer. It’s extremely stressful for everyone involved to start a long trip with the added anxiety of an animal that won’t step into a trailer. Bed the trailer deeply with straw or shavings. This helps cushion your animals’ feet during the ride and also acts as an absorbent for the urine and feces that will collect during a day’s worth of travel.

Choosing a Gooseneck Trailer Hitch for Transporting Animals

Then, you'll want to make sure the ride itself goes well. The bounce and jerk of the trailer places undue stress on the horse’s leg muscles and joints, making the animals scared, tired, and jumpy by the time the trailer stops, especially on long rides. This may mean you need to stop more often to let the animals rest and that makes the actual time getting to the destination much longer. Using the right hitch will give you a smoother ride for you and your animals.Gooseneck trailer hitches for sale feature an exclusive design that protects your precious cargo from injury and is veterinarian recommended.
