It's easy with the right set up slant. Forget those that are all closed in
with windows-if you use one with stock sides you can load from the outside
and run the leadrope through.  Forget the dividers, take them out-you are
the horse are safer without all that flopping around.  People load horses in
stock trailers all the time  without problems.  I ordered my 5-horse with
stock sides, a slant tack wall and NO partitions or dividers.

I hopefully train and expect the horses to load in any order and stand next
to who-ever I put there.  Under no circumstances should the horse be allowed
to run you over or move into your space.
