Question
Can I transport a 35" mini in the back of a truck and if so, what reccomendations would you make? This would be about an hour and a half trip. thanks!

Answer
First off it depends on the size of the truck.  How high the sides are etc.  I would probably not trecommend it especailly if the sides are not high.  It is always safer to use a trailer.  Do any of your nieghbors have a small trailer you could borrow?  But if you do decide to use the truck make sure you use safety eqipment for the horse, such as leg wraps etc.  Hope this helps.
