Does
this insurance cover my horse in the event of an accident?
Commercial
Carriers typically do not insure your horse for the full value
of it. Our insurance will cover the value of your horse up
to $2,500CDN. We strongly recommend that you acquire your
own insurance prior to the trip.
What
documents and information do I need to provide for the border?
All
horses crossing the U.S./Canada border need a valid test for
Equine Infectious Anemia (Coggins) and a current health certificate
endorsed and stamped by Agriculture Canada or the Federal
Department of Agriculture (USDA). The coggins test is good
for 6 months travelling into the United States and 180 days
travelling into Canada. Health Certificates are good for 30
days after endorsement by the Veterinary Practitioner (not
the Federal Vet).
In addition
to exact delivery address, horses entering the United States
need the person receiving the horse to provide a corporate
tax ID or Social Security number for US Customs.
Is
there anything I should do to get my horse ready?
We
recommend you read the following article by the Ontario Government
www.gov.on.ca/OMAFRA/english/livestock/horses/facts/info_trailering.htm#ontario
What
can I send with my horse?
All
horses must have a halter in good repair and enough hay for
the journey. The trucks have room for some equipment but please
confirm with our dispatch if the equipment you are planning
to send will fit.
General
Purpose medications in their original containers are generally
OK. Prescription medication must be in original containers
and accompanied by a letter from your Veterinarian.
