Our insurance--Farm Bureau--in VA--covers the trailer, if attached to
the truck, but not the horses. we have separate coverage for that.

Also in VA, small trailers--like little utility ones you can pull with a
car--do not need to be registered, but trailers for hauling animals do.
And they need to be inspected.
