Large Animal Rescue Teams There are numerous emergency services agencies, rescue organizations, veterinarians, animal control services, and other members of the public that have attended the TLAER course and have come to realize just how important this training is and the inherent need for a large animal rescue team. Overtime, they have managed to compile a list of resources, obtain equipment and additional training, and develop their own Large Animal Rescue Team to assist other agencies with and handle large animal rescue incidents. Follow the link to a list of large animal rescue teams currently in operation.

USRIDER

The USRider® motor plan outperforms other roadside assistance plans by also covering Horse vans, tow vehicles and trailers carrying Horses. Most new vehicle roadside assistance plans only cover breakdowns resulting from manufacturing defects. And typical programs can leave you stranded if you are towing a trailer- especially with Horses.

Your roadside assistance benefits are in full force even when you are not traveling with your Horses. No matter what vehicle you are traveling in even if you are not driving...

At USRider, the safety of our Members and their Horses is our top priority. To help us keep the focus on, as well as show our respect to, these invaluable components of USRider, we capitalize the words “member” and “horse” where these words relate to our membership program.
