@toni.florentina: Update 25/11: Iโm going to collect some full length bars this evening!! ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ Next plan of action: make a few changes to my trailer & get my camera installed ๐ฅ๐ Then start with short journeys to figure out what makes Chester the most comfortable and Iโve ordered fleece travel boots ๐ด๐โจ #fyp #younghorse #horsegirl #equestrian #trailer
My mare Crystal used to do this, round corners she would scramble up the walls one day out of no where after Iโd owned her for 5 years. We travelled without the partition and problem solved, it caused her to spread her back legs to balance and stop leaning on the partition and scrabbling on the sides!

I would always recommend wearing travel boots! Even for the best behaved ones you can never be too careful

This is generally a combination of psychological & physical. Bodywork checking sacroiliac and surrounding areas. small changes can affect balance. take partition out but still tie as normal so horse can angle body. allow to lower neck to aid balance.

Sounds so stressful! Definitely try no partition, it worked wonders for my horse that hated travelling. Also where are your blue bandage pads from?

Honestly Mine was the exact same! We took the partition out and she travels foot perfect she was the same with just moving the back she still scrambled I would just take it out! Some just need to find their own balance. It wonโt affect the trailer at all. U would think they need the partition to balance but they donโt!

Please just take the whole partition out and put full width bars front and back. Your problem will be solved!

Gutted for you! So frustrating, was hoping the shavings would do the trick for him! It could be worth getting the trailer serviced / checked incase infrastructure problem/ something not right too! X

Another vote for no partition once they start scrambling they donโt stop take partitions out and get full bars and cross tie

He might feel a bit claustrophobic thatโs what happened to my mare so now we travel her with a single bar

Maybe try taking him out with another pony or horse so he's not alone and he feels safe? Xx

You need to have back bars lovely. The risk is heโll be leaning on the ramp which he can damage. Try to get or borrow full bars without partition. Get camera too to see whatโs actually going on x

Take the partition out. It helps loads of horses who scrabble.
