[RC] how to get a horse from Ill to VA? - A. PerezI am considering buying a horse in Scales Mound IL and need to get it back to VA. My options are driving out there (13 hrs one way) and bringing it back myself, which would proabably require at least one day off work, hiring a hauler, or finding someone coming through (perhaps en route to the Old Dominion No Frills or the OD ride in June?) If the latter, I would probably fly out to see the horse, get it vetted and load it (don't think the horse is trailer-trained), then fly back, or tag for the ride along if there's room. I'm not thrilled with the idea of asking someone else to deal with hauling an unknown horse, which leans me toward doing it myself or hiring a pref. hauler. any thoughts? ________________________________________________ Get your own "800" number Voicemail, fax, email, and a lot more http://www.ureach.com/reg/tag ============================================================ Arabians were bred for years primarily as a war horse and those requirements are similar to what we do today with endurance riding. ~ Homer Saferwiffle ridecamp.net information: http://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/ ============================================================
