This course is extremely informative. There's no need to feel intimidated or nervous...classes are always relaxed and you are guaranteed to have lots of laughs!!
Anybody that has hauled with me knows how seriously I take my job. Whether you're new to hauling, you've already done a few trips, or you've just bought your first trailer, you may find this clinic helpful.
This clinic is very thorough, so expect to be there for a full day. I take you through every aspect of animal welfare and trailering safety. Class is very 'hands on' so that everybody is able to practice a variety of tasks.
