Ok ya'll. I need to ask ya'll somethin'. Ok, well I'm going to college and my horse is coming with me, mainly cause i'm going to school for equine science and management (plus farm management and ag.education). He'll take a bit, but he acts like he can't stand it. Now, a lot of people down here don't get their horses teeth floated, i think they need ot be floated. It's either that or his wolf teeth or whatever they're called, i forget. I've been told that his teeth didn't need to be floated..but i think they do. Would you be able to tell me?

And..I live in nc, i need to get my horse to Colorado, any suggestions on how to get him there?

Get more (good) opinions on the teeth.

Check out nation-wide horse transport out of colorado springs. you can google it. they have prescribed routes and if you're close to one of them it is much cheaper than a special detour.

On the getting your horse to college, there are horse transports, that will haul your horse from state to state. I heard that the going rate is between .55 to 1.00 a mile, but I can ask my friend whose used a horse transportation before who she used.

As for floating teeth, I always have my horses teeth checked once a year by a equine dentist. But hauling your horse across that many state lines, you will have to have a coggins and health papers on him, so you might as well have the vet check his teeth too.

BYT, I majored in equine management in college at Ellsworth Community College.

well first off, it very well may be that his wolf teeth need to be removed. have you tried him in a hakamore?
