Do you ever need a horse to be shipped ?
Over the years we have shipped horses all over the World, Form Italy to Germany to our southern neighbors in California. All shippers are NOT created equal ! Price is rarely a consideration in regards to the quality of service. Recently we sold a horse and the new buyers made arrangements for him to be picked up.............A night mare. The shippers came with a trailer with a hord of pigs, Yep, you read that correctly, PIGS ! and to top off the load there was a sheep ! Not the environment I want for a baby for his first long ride ! Email me for the name of this "shipping" company.
There are three companies that we use regularly. One is Andrea & Daniel's DNA RANCH. We love the fact that thier equipment is state-of-the-art and it is immaculatly clean. The horses arrive with feed & water and are happy. Happy horses make Happy owners.

WHEN YOU SHIP:
Please:
1. Have all of your paperwork in order.........
You will need a Health Certificate ( usually only good for TEN days from issue) a Negative COGGINS test. CHECK with YOUR state for regs ! Be sure to have all contact informations.
2. Be ready when the shipper arrives...........
If you need that extra cuppa before they arrive at 4 am, have it, but be available for you shipper to take your animal. DO NOT make them wait. They have lives too as well as a time schedule. Ther were on time for you, weren't they..............
3. Have appripriate payment available.
No, they don't take checks. Cash works as does your VISA ( but that needs to be done PRIOR to them arriving for your horse)
4. Lastly, be polite, they are working for a living too..........
