RE: [RC] Unloading at a rest area - Spencer, Maryann LTCTitle: Re: [RC] Unloading at a rest areaI have done what some here
may call the unforgiveable... unload at rest stop. Depending on how may I
have and if I have help. Never had a problem except others who want to pet
the horse who have never been close to a horse before. I realized the
traffic can be more than at a ride but it seems a BIG dose of common sense is at
order. Only unloaded at a truck stop once. Mostly I just take a
short nap and go on. One of the truckers came to say he liked how I worked
with the horse: we are doing first level Parelli. As with most
things in this horse activity, common sense is a must. If your horse is
wild, best not to unload until you can put him in a stall at home. Seems
if we are polite and considerate of others, no one is going to hassel.
I keep water and hay in reach at all
times. As I must stop for bodily necessities, the horses have plenty of
time to relax frequently, although briefly.
Sometimes though I can understand why
people sell and rebuy instead of trailerly cross country.
