Travel Stress? Not with Draw It Out® – Your Horse’s Hauling Recovery Routine

Whether it’s a quick haul to a clinic or a full-on road trip to a multi-day show, travel puts wear and tear on your horse’s body. 🚚🐴
Standing still for hours, bracing through turns, and balancing in tight spaces taxes muscles and joints—even if your horse never takes a single step wrong.

The good news? With a little pre- and post-haul TLC (and your trusty Draw It Out® Liniment), you can keep your horse fresh, sound, and ready to perform.

1. How Trailering Affects Your Horse

Even the smoothest haul takes a toll.

Back & loins tighten from bracing and constant balancing

Legs swell due to poor circulation during standing

Muscle fatigue sets in, especially on longer trips

💡 Pro Tip: These effects often show up after the ride—not right away. So prepping before and treating after is your best defense.

2. Pre-Travel Routine: Prime the Body

Get ahead of the travel tension.

Before loading up:

Apply Draw It Out® Liniment to major muscle groups:
 ✔ Shoulders
 ✔ Loins
 ✔ Glutes
 ✔ All four legs

Use standing wraps if your horse tends to stock up

Offer hay and water to support hydration and digestion

🔥 Why it works: Liniment helps stimulate circulation, loosen tight tissue, and reduce tension before it starts.

3. Post-Travel Routine: Help Them Bounce Back

Once you arrive, help your horse recover quickly:

Do this first:

Hand-walk for 15–20 minutes to promote circulation

Reapply Draw It Out® to any areas that feel warm or tight

Check legs and back for signs of swelling, stiffness, or fatigue over the next 24 hours

💡 Pro Tip: Liniment under wraps overnight = next-day freshness. Your horse will step off that trailer like nothing happened.

4. Make It a Travel Habit

Even if you only haul occasionally, make liniment part of your go-to travel kit.
Because horses don’t just perform in the arena—they recover on the road.

✅ Routine =
✔ Less soreness
✔ Faster rebound
✔ Better focus when it’s go-time

Your horse hauls hard—help them recover smarter.
With Draw It Out® Liniment in your pre- and post-travel routine, you’ll stop swelling, ease tension, and keep those muscles ready to fire when the gate opens.
