🐴 A LONGER RUN FOR US YESTERDAY! 🐻

Yesterday we headed off towards Oxford to take the beautiful Moose to his new home. ❤️

At a whopping 17.2hh, he’s certainly a big lad, but what an absolute superstar he was! 🌟 He travelled brilliantly, with two stops along the way for plenty of water and hay before continuing on his journey.

It’s always a pleasure getting horses safely to their new homes, and we’re so pleased to have been part of Moose’s big adventure. 🥰

🎉 Happy New Horse Day, Jayne! 🎉
We hope you have many wonderful adventures together. ❤️🐴

And this weekend, Mrs Bear will be at Stanhope Show with our horse! 🐎 If you’re heading along, do pop over and say hello — we’d love to see you! 👋

Honestly, I can’t believe it’s nearly the weekend again… where does the time go?! 😂

Have a lovely weekend everyone! ❤️

🐴🔥 WHAT. A. WEEKEND! 🔥🐴

Another brilliant Wolsingham Show in the books! 🚛🐻

Saturday saw 82 horses come through the Working Hunter section, with Big Bear Equine Transport once again creating the course and stewarding the section, just as we’ve done for many years. 🐎🏇

It’s always a privilege to be involved behind the scenes as well as out on the road, and what a fantastic turnout it was! 👏 The weather even behaved itself, and everyone — horses and riders alike — looked absolutely amazing. ❤️✨

Then it was straight into another busy day on Sunday, with the showjumping ring keeping us entertained for most of the day! 🏆🐴

It was fantastic to see so many old clients, familiar faces and new clients out competing. This is exactly what makes the equestrian world so special — seeing horses and riders progress, compete and enjoy their weekends. ❤️

A huge well done to everyone involved over the weekend. Riders, owners, grooms, organisers, stewards and everyone working tirelessly behind the scenes — you all helped make it such a great show! 👏🙌

📸 And of course, a massive thank you to Kevin Owens for his usual fabulous photos and for capturing so much of the action!

🚛🐻 NOW… ONTO THIS WEEK!

We’ve got a couple of local runs today and tomorrow with some of our regulars, before heading down south later in the week for a new-home journey with a new client’s horse. 🏡🐎❤️

Another busy week on the road — and we wouldn’t have it any other way! 💨

Happy Monday everyone! ☕🐴

Where are you and your horses heading this week? 👇🐎

🐴 Another busy weekend for Big Bear Equine Transport! 🐴

After another busy weekend, Sunday was spent doing something a bit different and enjoying a cracking day at Showing on Grass.

We were really proud to sponsor the Dales Pony Youngstock classes and Championship, and what a lovely day it was!

A massive well done to Liam Thompson and his yearling Castle Hill King Of The North for winning his section. He’s a proper looker… although by all accounts he’s a bit of a cheeky chap too! 😂🐴

It was brilliant to see so many of our clients there enjoying the day with their horses. It’s always nice seeing familiar faces out and about and watching everyone having a good time.

Well done to Lewis and Sarah for putting on such a great show, and to everyone who helped and supported them. It takes a massive amount of work to get these days off the ground, and you all did a cracking job.

We were really pleased to be able to play a small part in it and enjoy a day away from the lorry for a change! 😂

Well done everyone — already looking forward to the next one! 🐴❤️

🐴🚛 One of those afternoons where we’re reminded why having the right support behind you really matters…

Today we received a call from a fellow horse transport company who had unfortunately broken down and were stranded at the M6 services with a horse on board.

Without hesitation, we headed over to help. ❤️

It’s a reminder that no matter how well you look after your vehicle, breakdowns can happen to any of us. The important thing is having the right cover in place so both you and your horses are looked after when the unexpected happens.

We’re proud to be recovery members with PRP Rescue Services, and we honestly can’t recommend them enough. Their specialist breakdown cover is affordable and, in situations like today, it’s worth its weight in gold. Knowing you have experienced people ready to help takes so much of the stress away.

The best part of the day? This lovely boy loaded like a superstar, travelled brilliantly, and safely completed the rest of his journey to Scotland with no further issues. 🥰🐎

A happy ending for everyone involved, and we’re always happy to lend a hand when another transporter needs it. After all, we’re all working towards the same goal – getting horses to their destinations safely. 💙

Wow… where does the time go?!

We’ve been a little quiet on social media lately, but that’s only because it’s been all hands on deck here at Big Bear Equine Transport!

We’ve also got trips booked to Wales, Lincolnshire and Scotland, with a couple of National Championships just around the corner. We can’t wait to help more horses and owners get where they need to be safely and comfortably.

A huge thank you to everyone who continues to support us. We genuinely love being part of your journey and getting you and your horses out and about.

📅 We still have some availability in August, so if you’re looking for safe, reliable and professional equine transport, we’d love to hear from you.

☀️ Another sunny Sunday on the showground! ☀️

How fabulous do these guys look? 🤩🐴

🚨 Emergency Horse Transport – Are You Prepared? 🚨

Late last night, we received a call to assist with a horse stranded in a broken-down lorry. It’s every horse owner’s nightmare being stuck at the side of the road with a horse on board, especially late at night.

Thankfully, within the hour, we had the horse safely reloaded and on its way home. 🐴💨

The situation got us thinking… if you found yourself stranded during a journey, would you have everything you need to keep both you and your horse safe while waiting for assistance?

Here are some essential items we recommend keeping in your horsebox or trailer emergency kit:

✅ Headcollar and spare lead rope
✅ Hi-vis vest and horse exercise sheet
✅ First aid kit for horse and human 🩹
✅ Fresh water and bucket 🪣 💦
✅ Hay net or small supply of forage
✅ Torch with spare batteries 🔋
✅ Charged power bank for your phone 📞
✅ Emergency contact numbers written down
✅ Basic toolkit and spare fuses
✅ Wheel brace and spare tyre 🛞
✅ Warning triangle and breakdown information 🔺
✅ Human water and snacks 🍏🍪🍩🧋
✅ Waterproof coat and gloves🧥
✅ Knife for emergency rope or hay net cutting
✅ Spare travel boots or bandages

⚠️ And don’t forget to check your insurance policy. Not all breakdown cover includes horsebox or trailer recovery, and not all providers will transport your horse if your vehicle breaks down. Make sure you have suitable equine breakdown cover in place before you travel—it could save a lot of stress when the unexpected happens.

No one plans for a breakdown, but being prepared can make a stressful situation much easier to manage.

At Big Bear Equine Transport, we’re always ready to help when the unexpected happens. Our priority is getting your horse loaded safely and transported to its destination with as little stress as possible.
