Towing a horse trailer is not something to be taken lightly, but neither should it be offputting. This text explains how to buy and use a trailer safely and within the law, covering all the topics a responsible horse owner needs to know, supported by photographs and diagrams. The book examines all aspects of trailer use and ownership, including choosing a trailer and tow car, maintenance, safe driving practice and the law. The newcomers' nightmares of hitching up and reversing are explained in an illustrated step-by-step section. Safety and the importance of driving with the horse in mind are stressed throughout and there are also sections on travelling wear for horses and how to handle difficult loaders.
