When I finally stumbled upon Travel n Corrals I knew I had found the perfect solution.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1903\" title=\"travel n corrals - painting pony\" src=\"http:\/\/trickponies.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/05\/img_7107_4.jpg?w=400&#038;resize=400%2C266\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Each individual panel weighs only 15 pounds &#8211; I constructed the corral for the first time all by myself, and I was even able to carry two panels at once (I&#8217;m a beast huh?). It only took me about 5 minutes to set up! Each panel is connected every 7\u2019 with a full length 4\u2019 steel pipe rod that a horse cannot pull out vs. short pins or Velcro that the horse can work at removing. It has a special cap at the end that makes it nearly impossible for a horse to grip it with their teeth.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1904\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1904\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1904\" title=\"minnow - travel n corrals - painting pony\" src=\"http:\/\/trickponies.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/05\/img_7111_4.jpg?w=400&#038;resize=400%2C266\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1904\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Minnow tests out the new corral system<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Our corral is the 18&#8242; x 18&#8242; size, but you can easily add more panels in the future, or connect two corrals together for an even larger area for your horse.<\/p>\n<p>One of the great aspects to these corrals is that they come with a life time guarantee, so IF you ever have an issue, or have something break &#8211; you can get it replaced.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1905\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1905\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1905\" title=\"minnow - travel n corrals\" src=\"http:\/\/trickponies.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/05\/img_7119_3.jpg?w=400&#038;resize=400%2C266\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-1905\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Minnow giving the new corral the once-over.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Another great thing about these corrals for us is that it is highly visible through the panels &#8211; meaning no one&#8217;s view will be obstructed when Minnow is painting his masterpiece. The corral will also open up many more venues for us to perform at. Setting up in a parking lot or a grassy field will be no issue now that we have a safe and secure place for Minnow to be.<\/p>\n<p>While we will mostly be using our corral for performances, it is also fantastic for traveling to horse shows and events. Set it up next to your trailer on show day and your horse isn&#8217;t stuck standing on the trailer between classes\/events. We also plan to use ours at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mountedgames.org\" target=\"_blank\">mounted games competitions<\/a> &#8211; where keeping your horse overnight often requires a stall rental. Now we&#8217;ll be able to forgo the stall fees &amp; the horses will have more room to move about. Would also be great for overnight trail rides!<\/p>\n<p>The other really cool thing about these panels is that you can mount them to your trailer for transportation.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1907\" title=\"mounting corrals travel n corrals\" src=\"http:\/\/trickponies.files.wordpress.com\/2011\/05\/screen-shot-2011-05-24-at-10-38-13-pm.png?w=400&#038;resize=400%2C259\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"259\" \/><\/p>\n<p>With options for mounting on the outside of a trailer, in the tackroom or even in one of the stall bays &#8211; it makes traveling with them even easier.
