Very excited to announce that Southlands Riding Club is hosting our first Trailering Clinic of 2025!

Members will receive a discount, but the clinic is open to everyone!
Please read the following carefully!
SRC Members: $120 per person, or $200 for a couple
Non-Members: $180 per person, or $300 for a couple
(“Couple” is loosely defined! Spouses, siblings, barn buddies, whatever!)
As always when a club or group hosts one of our clinics, a significant portion of the attendance fee will be donated back to the club.

A very brief summary of the content:
The classroom portion begins at 9am sharp, after lunch we head outside for the practical session, then typically wrap up around 4pm.
Overview of trailering safety
Vehicle ratings, capacities & specifications
Insight; private, business & commercial animal transport
Safety & maintenance, licensing
Driving tips, trip preparations, emergency preparedness
Loading & Unloading, specific situations
Pre-Trip demo
“Show & Tell” of safety issues & hazard avoidance

Q&A afterwards

The session will revolve primarily around trailering horses, but is applicable to anyone wishing to improve their general trailering skills & knowledge. The clinic will also offer insight into situations regarding professional &/or business applications of the law and how they would affect stable/barn owners, trainers/coaches & other industry service providers. In addition, there will be plenty of tips & explanations offered on how & why the pros do things!
Attendees will also receive a free digital copy of my book, "Tow Like A Pro, by Learning From One"; nearly 200 pages of detailed information, explanations & insight on horse transport
