TrailGuard a equestrian towing service for those who haul horses and want peace of mind

Have you tried US Rider?  Found it wanting?  I have heard many complaints of late.  I was looking around for someone else when US Rider would not keep me as a member as I had a business. Pony Parties and Trail Rides to be specific.  They will not help someone who does horses as a business.  This includes Trainers or anyone in the industry.  This is a big market and I think they were missing the boat when they dis-included people who haul horses as part of their business. 

A few months ago I got a membership in TrailGuard to also augment my Good Sam Towing.  My living quarters is RV rated and that I feel that alone would make it a RV, well Good Sam feels differently even if I had no horses in my trailer at the time.  TrailGuard bills themselves as
The Ultimate Equestrian Roadside Assistance Program and I would agree with that assessment! 

I spent a few dollars extra for that TrailGuard protection but it was WELL worth it and you can get discounted memberships for life if you look for a special on their Facebook page. TrailGuard

I cannot say enough good things about the service I received.  The same day my Iphone locked up my truck overheated many miles from home.  I found a borrowed phone, from two very nice people of Zolfo Springs, Florida, named Debbie and Raymond Taylor.  She graciously allowed me to use her data and phone to make many calls to all my friends to let them know I was fine and in a safe place. I needed to look up the number for TrailGuard, since I had left my membership card at home.  I called and talked to Rick Hale who made many calls and went the extra mile to make sure I was taken care of.  Roberts Car Repair and Towing of Bowling Green, Florida, was the company he sent out to assist me in my quest of safety for my horses, my dog, truck, trailer and me.  I was exceedingly satisfied with the service that was quickly sent.  They unhooked my trailer and put it on his wifes F350 to take my horses safety to their destination.  My truck was moved to a secure location to await the second driver taking it to my mechanic. 

Everything was handled quickly and humor was retained as this experience was the least stressful towing experience I have ever had.  I had a lovely visit with Debbie and Raymond and Roberts Mushrush with his wife's truck, was lovely entertainment and was wonderful with my dog who rode with us in the truck.  Roberts told me the one truck he has with the Powerstroke engine has over 750,000 miles on it and still going strong. 

TrailGuard Rocks!!! I cannot say enough good things about this company.
