Good basics
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
A good basic understanding of horse behavior when dealing with trailering. More for the horse that has NEVER trailered than for one that just needs a refresher course...as mine did. Cherry Hill has a great understanding of the animal. For me a physical demonstration was necessary but the book helped with the basics. A good place to start, definitely.
A worthwhile book for novices
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book is less about horse trailers than I expected. It is more about preparing the novice horse and horse-person to load & unload their horse. It does not include a comprehensive discussion on the current types (and fads) of trailers, nor does it cover the "horse's perspective" of what makes a good trailer. The small sections on trailers and tow vechicles is okay, but not nearly as comprehensive and fact-filled as "The Complete Guide to Buying, Maintaining and Servicing a Horse Trailer" by the Scheves. I would recommend "Trailering your Horse..." as a second source for the potential trailer buyer.
2nd time around training

This is a must-have for anyone just trailering for the first time or working with a horse that was mistrained in trailering. Using Cherry's techniques has helped me to learn a great deal about my horse's previous training and given me the information needed to retrain him properly. I would recommend it for the novice or the pro!
A must have
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book helped me put together a combination of safe tow vehicle; well-equipped, comfortable horse trailer; and well-trained horse. I wish I had read it years ago. It would have saved me and my horses a lot of trouble. I have recommended this book to many people and would suggest that anyone considering the purchase of a horse trailer and/or tow vehicle read it and re-read it before talking to a single dealer/seller.
Must Have for Horse People

I found this book extremely helpful. Even though I don't trailer my horse but a couple times a year, I thought that the information provided, was layed out well and the pictures were great. Besides learning how to safely trailer my horse, this book also taught me how to control my horse from the ground using voice commands, which I found handy whether I was putting her on a trailer or not. I have all of Cherry Hill's books and the pictures always make things quick and easy to follow. What horseperson has time to read wordy, time-consuming volumes on horsecare? Pictures tell a thousand words!
