    I'm sorry, I can't help you. I have been having the same problem though. (finding horses I LOVE, but then they are way too far away) Truthfully, I dont think I could trust someone to haul my horse, unless I knew them. Do you show horses or anything? Is there anybody you know that is showing horses in that direction??

    Is there any way that you could get a video and pictures (if you already havent) of the horse, before you drive all the way there, and have to turn around? I got a horse a few years ago, and it was only like 3 hours away, but we brought our horse trailor with us when we went. I didn't see any pictures of him or anything, but we ended up getting him. If I were you I would request videos of it doing everything, and then, if you still like it, I would take the drive myself, just to be safe.

    I wouldnt do it. People can say the horse is fine and dandy but once you pay for it and all the shipping expensis it could turn out to be a real bad horse...or they could send you the wrong horse...you just never know these days people go to alot for money..I think you should try sticking local

    Years ago I used to use racehorse transport (the people who transported racehorses from state to state in Australia), not sure if you have something like that over there. You really should have a trusted friend see the horse first if you can't get there.

    Ya like someone who know how you ride like but it would still be better for YOU to get a feel of the horse first.

    You'd hire someone to trailer it. I'd definitely go and try it first.
