Location: Kansas City | I'm trailering my horse from Kansas City to Fort Collins Colorado. I have a two horse straight load bumper pull trailer. Sometimes I take the divider out when are trailering around town and like an hour away. I am wondering If I should keep the divider in or take it out?? I am open to suggestions. Sally |

I suggest you leave it in.
If nothing else it offers support for the horse to lean against and not have to stumble around when you take long curly highway on/off ramps.
I think they doze on the longer trips and getting a sudden wake up if you do a quick lane change could lead to some inexpected weight shifting.
I admit, part of this is for MY sense of security as well as the horse's.

Location: Spanaway,Wa | Oh Yeah, leave the divider in on the long haul. Horses really need something to lean on. Not as bad in a straight load but still would leave them in..... |
