Sometimes one can get it done sometimes it takes two. Pleasure working with Gretchen Lehrkind of Diamond Spur Transport to get a yearling draft cross from Manitoba to Maryland.

As a legal commercial transporter in North America, we at 2W Custom Equine are required to comply with all DOT regulations, which includes inspections.

Not only do we have regular inspections every year we also are subject to inspections on the road.

Recently, our driver had a Level 1 inspection performed in Minnesota.
A Level 1 inspection includes inspection of all paperwork (transport logs, registration, insurance, etc) and a full inspection of the rig.

The inspecting officer was courteous, thorough and made sure our driver was able to get back on the road as quickly as possible when satisfied with the inspection results.

Of course we passed with flying colours 😉

Huge thank you and shout out to the hard working officers and officials in Minnesota for their dedication to ensuring the roads are safe, and for making the inspection process as painless as possible. We really appreciate it!

Normally we prefer our drivers to stay in hotels or sometimes layovers.

Sometimes there are exceptions, and last night our Owner/Driver made the executive decision to camp out with a 5 year old mare being shipped from Oregon to Canada.

The mare had never been off the farm, let alone on a trailer, or by herself. Will took it upon himself to make sure she was not only comfortable, but also not stressed more than she had to be.

This act was partially inspired by a story which was told to Will by legendary horseman Ken Brown and crew, shipping a hitch of Percherons from Manitoba to The Royal in Toronto, in a box car during the early 1970’s. Ken said “we put the horses at each end and the hay in the middle, then slept on the hay. We had to look after the horses, so there wasn’t a choice. It took a week...it was a good time, you kids don’t get that now”.

While we don’t encourage this practice, we feel Will did the best he could with what he had to work with, and know there are very few carriers who deliver this level of care, kindness and heart.

Although possibly strange to some, there is living proof, it’s not about the money and always about the horses.

Will reports the sleep was better than most hotels and that “if it was good enough for Ken Brown, it’s more than good enough for me”.
