Comfort
and Safety is all in the Design
It's simple.
If your two-horse trailer has been designed
to make your horse really comfortable while trailering, it will
be safer for you and your horse. So, what
makes a horse more comfortable? That's easy. It will be roomy
and unrestrictive in the head and leg area. It will be well
ventilated with good air flow. It will be light and open. It
will be inviting to get into. It will be easy to get off. There
will be no sharp hooks, catches or latches any where in the
horse area.
That's why
you will find all EquiSpirit models to be walk-thru style trailers,
as opposed to the manger style. The openness in the head area
allows your horse to stretch its neck to cough out unwanted
hay dust and debris, to eat more naturally, and to feel less
claustrophobic. Prevention
of shipping fever, colic and dehydration is possible by reducing
stress.
Except in
special cases, all our EquiSpirits have spring-loaded, non-slippery
ramps, as opposed to step-ups (we call them step downs) in which
the horse always faces the possibility of sliding under the
trailer. We've seen this happen and the injuries can be severe,
possibly permanent or life threatening.
Standard
EquiSpirit trailers are 7'6" tall and 6' wide with a square
roof. This gives a true height across the width (as opposed
to a rounded roof). Our standard size will accommodate horses
up to 17 hands easily (for bigger horses see XL and XXL options.)
All EquiSpirit
trailers have an aerodynamic nose which gives an even more open
feel to the head area, and allows the trailer to "track"
even better. Please read through the rest of our standard design
features to discover the purpose of each item.
