Member Posts: 13	my newly purchased barrel horse was injured during transport, got a leg hung up & going to reroute & meet the transporter at my vet clinic, I understand that you sign a Bill of Lading with the transporters & I couldn't get insurance on the horse till my vet examed her & now the horse is hurt. Are transporters required to be bonded or do they have to carry a liability insurance of their choice. Can you insist on their insurance company name to file a claim for injury while in their care? Please help in what I need to do next, this horse was a huge investment. Can I contact the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Admin. to file a loss of or damage claim? The transporter is supposed to be a Commercial transport with all the proper regulations for safety of your animal & if this was not met, or a violation was ignored. What documentation do I need to get from the transporter before they leave? PLEASE HELP!

Expert Posts: 5290	I am not sure on the particulars, but I wouldn’t get to far ahead of yourself. I would wait to see what happened, how bad the injury is etc. I would think the hauler would have to be negligent to be liable. Maybe the horse caused its own injury! If they are reputable hauler they will know what to do. Edited by FLITASTIC 2018-07-21 3:40 PM
