Transport for one mare from Lexington area to Boise area. Any ideas?

Idaho is a little off the beaten path, but I’ve used Bob Hubbard for multiple cross-country trips (northern CA to TN and AZ to TN) and been very happy with both their service and rates. They’re CA based and haul a lot of race horses, so the Lexington to western US route shouldn’t be terribly off their radar.

Athena Fosnight might be able to help. She is based in Wyoming. She brought my horse from South Dakota to Los Angeles area. Excellent rig and service.

I used a small 2 person operation one time to safe some money and it was a big mistake. (GA to Toronto)
Learned my lesson and I would only ship with big companies after that.

Camera on board - customer can watch horse while in transit.
Legal/Insured
They are on Facebook as well and run a page for legal transporters only and check profiles thoroughly to keep scammers out called Find Legal and Insured Transport (vetted page-US only)

Did you find what you needed?
If not, I would recommend American Horse Transport based in Chehalis, WA. I believe Lexington, KY is their hub and they go to the Pacific Northwest.
They did 2/3 of a trip across the country for a horse of mine who went from Western Oregon to Florida. They did great on their leg and coordinated just fine with the Eastern Seaboard company that did the KY to FL leg. American Horse Transport set up the whole thing. But the bottom line is that I don’t think they would object to boing to Boise, ID.
I ended up passing on the horse. Thanks for the recommendation.
