Re: [RC] Long Haul - Wrap or no? - Joe Long

Need some advice. I am using a commercial shipper to  haul my horse to 
Corrales, New Mexico from Covington, LA around the end of the  month. The 
duration 
of the trip is scheduled to take from 4-5 days including a  layover and 
whatever other stops the rig must make. Should I wrap or leave  bare?  The 
drivers 
will not do any rewrapping, and 5 days seems a  long time to go either 
completely wrapped or completely bare. Please  advise!

FWIW, I haven't wrapped a horse's legs for a trip of any duration for many
years.  I don't even use "shipping boots" any more.  Oh, I sure wouldn't want
anyone wrapping that didn't know what they were doing.  So my recommendation is
to leave the wraps off.
