Such an excellent idea. We have a new 3 year old. I
put him between my two boys in the 3 horse slant with the dividers. He has no
choice but to be quiet. My two older boys could not care less. They think the
trailer is their second home. They see me pull up and both pee and poop before I
get hitched. Such good boys. Beccy in lovely SUNNY Ut, but not sunny for long.

I bought
a 3 yr old Morab who was very nervous in my 3 horse slant which has the
dividers removed. After trailering her with my been-there, done-that
horse several times, she has really settled down. I can now take her
alone in the trailer, and even stop for lunch. She will just look
around and munch on hay until I get back. No sweating, no pawing, no
fuss.
It will take some time. But a calm horse will teach her
more, faster, and painlessly, rather than her having to figure it out on
her own.
