Moving a Horse to a New Home by Dr David Marlin

Over the years I've come across many horse owners who bring a horse home and then find they are having problems with it in the first few days or even weeks, whether that be changes in temperament, illness or both.  Moving home is extremely stressful for some horses and can even lead to colic, tying up and respiratory problems to name just a few.  We cannot overestimate the stress of travelling and changing home for our horses, changing forage and feed, bedding material and so forth.
