There are many variables. For short hauls to the vet, farrier or another barn, with a healthy horse that is alone. I allow them access of the whole trailer. I personally do not tie them in or restrict their movement with dividers. After many years, I have never had a problem with a horse that was not restricted.
When going on linger hauls, hauling horses that are not used to trailers or not feeling well, restraint becomes needed. Tying the head to a breakaway strap and putting hay for them to munch on is the norm.
The divider is always placed in for these hauls. We also make sure we stop plenty of times during the warmest part of the day to give them water. Night hauling you can get further between stops, but checking is a great idea.
Some horses get a little spooky trying to get them in a trailer. Drugging is a last resort, but can be required. Training your horse before you start hauling is what I recommend. All of my horses load instantly (bragging here) because we regularly walk them in and out of trailers. If you have a spooky horse, you may wish to review some of the other things you do with the horse.
They tend to take on aspects of their riders. Are you getting jumpy and nervious around the trailer?
After hauling hundreds of horses thousands of miles, I can say that nothing is always the rule. Straight rigs, slants, big horses and small. They all have different abilities and challenges in the hauling of them.
There are many different ways to load a horse onto the trailer. You can either get a horse onto a trailer by force or bribery (which often doesn't work) or you can actually train the horse to go into the trailer.
One way, perhaps the most common way, to train a horse to go into a trailer is to work the horse outside the trailer and let him rest inside it. You may have to start with just letting him rest near the trailer, but eventually the horse will get the picture.
Another way is to use reverse physicolgy kind of. The idea of this is to lead the horse up to the trailer, and when the horse reaches a point where he subtly tells you he doesn't want to go any further, you back him up, kind of saying "We can go close to the trailer, but we can't go in" and sooner or later, the horse will want to get in the trailer. This works best with very curious horses, and you must be very observant so that you can back up the horse before going past his comfort zone.
The first version is your best bet, but every horse is different and some do better with version 2.
Well first you have to get a horse trailer then (if your horse is trained) you should be able to lead him in there. If he is not trained then you should use some hay twine and put it under the horse's tail then pull the leadline and the twine. It works for me
Continually walk him up to the trailer until he goes in but do not force him.
The amount of time it will take a horse to walk a mile will depend on the horse. It will depend on the age of the horse, the speed in which it is walking, and if it is carrying a person or trailer with items on it. The horse walks an average of about 4 miles per hour.
A horse needs to belive in you. If you first see a horse he or she won't listen to you the first time. It takes a quite long time for a horse to listen to you and do what you say.

The Horse Lorry usually carries Horses. The largest Horse Lorry there is in the World can carry ten horses at one time. Now that is a big horse load.
A continuous load is a constant load. A noncontinuous load is one that varies over time.
here are some steps to get a horse on the trailerslowly walk the horse in with hay/grain in your hand.have someone try and guide horse from front and back (be careful for kicks)make sure you and the horse are calm if not take a break let them know it is okay and nothing bad is going to happenstart these steps overif those don't work after the third try, take a lunge line and tie it to the right side of the trailer (if loading on the left) and bring it behind the horses butt. then you walk the horse on and when it backs up you keep the line tight so the horse cannot back up. Keep encouraging the horse on the trailer.this will eventually work. if you know you have loading issues make sure you leave time before you have to leave. it will never hurt to practice getting on the trailer.*Remember stay calm the whole time when you get frustrated the horse can tell and doesn't want to get on even more. Make sure you reward the horse after safely in the trailer!
There is no certain breed of horse that would be ideal for a first time horse owner. The best type of horse a first time buyer should look for is one that has some experience, is tempermental and easy to control and handle.

Stress testing means increasing the load ,and cheking the performance at each level. Load testing means at a time giving more load by the expectation and checking the performance at that leval. Volume testing means first we have to apply initial load,then at certain time increase the load and check the performance.
