Anyone know of any that works west of the mississippi? Or a way to check prices other than "Uship"?
Also, you folks in the NW know of an equine quarantine station near Joseph, OR?

Have a request in to Uship, just wondering if anyone has experience with how charges are set and about what they are so I can prepare for a possible shock. ie 60 cents a mile/loaded mile, etc...

Thanks, Dave
 
Dave: I don't know much about horses but is there not any horses of the type you want in Europe??? I would think that the shipping cost would be prohibitive in transporting one from the US to Germany.

I have seen that you have been writing about looking for one here in the US. Just wondering.

I know some guys that are in the high end dairy cow business and they ship world wide. They say it can run $4000-5000 to ship a dairy cow to Europe.
 

Gotta be THE horse... Ones over here just seem to have different personalities (??) and just don't "click" with the program... We had to castrate our old stallion and picked up another here with a nice pedigree in the direction we are breeding, but he just didn't fit us.... The one we gelded was bought here also but was from old foundation lines and only a generation from imported stock. I know the costs involved, we have 4 mares we bought from Missouri over the last few years.
Worth the extra expense and the attitudes pass right off to the babies which makes them pretty much sell themselves when folks come to see them...
 
Google Ron Keener Transport. He's kind of a halfwit, but it's fun to follow his misadventures in the animal transport business. He does get the animals delivered and somehow he stays in business.
