I wanted to take the time to HIGHLY recommend a hauler I used from your site (www.travelinghorse.com) PRAIRIECREEK PERFORMANCE HORSES & TRANSPORT.
I cannot say enough great things about these guys!! John was very informative and patient with me in setting up a trip for three ARABIAN horses that had never been in a trailer. Mike Brooks was the hauler for John, and what a terrific horseman!! My horses were catered to, and I couldn't have found a better hauler out there! The equipment they used was top notch. The care my horses received...amazing! I even called Mike up after midnight, to check up on my girls en route, as there were tornados in the area. I woke him up...and not a complaint! He kept me informed all along the way! These guys love horses and what they do! You WON'T be disappointed!!! I would use them again, without hesitation!!! If you want a top notch hauler...use PRAIRIECREEK!

Y'all might remember me as I recently posted a request to haul a yearling colt from MO to OK. Well, I found a wonderful shipper (best one yet--he will be the one I will use from now on) based out of Oklahoma, and he did exactly what he said he would do and when he said he would do it (at a VERY reasonable price no less). Please forgive this rather long post, but I just have to let everyone know about him!

The end result is he brought my colt home healthy and happy and in a very reasonable amount of time! His trailer was bedded down with several inches of good shavings (CLEAN), the trailer was very safe (Sundowner) and clean itself, and my colt didn't have a mark on him. The shipper had trouble trying to unload him to offload another horse (for some reason my colt didn't want to get out, lol!) but he didn't do things to my colt that other less scrupulous shippers might, he just worked around him. He was very patient while waiting for him to unload at my property as well, and I just think he is a great guy. He is genuinely interested in the horses, their safety & well-being, and I can tell he really and truly LIKES them as well.

AND, another thing he did (free of charge) was meet me about 45 min or so (really I think it was out of his way) away from his base early yesterday morning in order for me to give him the balance owed on the colt so he could come home (he took it to the seller for me)--this was something he did NOT have to do, but he was so nice and helped me out so much that I will remember that!

I would recommend him to EVERYONE!

I want you to know that you made the selling of my special filly much easier. Thank you for telling such nice things about her new home. It helped me so much. I hope to see you again and will be happy to give any needed recommendations. Thanks - K.H.

It was a pleasure doing business with you. I'm VERY pleased with your services and hope that we can do business again in the future. L.S.

I wanted to thank you for delivering the filly here in Alabama. I really appreciate the obvious care you take with horses. I wouldn't hesitate to call on you or recommend you to anyone who asked. If you ever run across someone who wants to call your former customers beofre committing, I would be happy to oblige. Thank you again - T.D.

I have used John a number of times. He always does a great job with horses! - J

From a Yahoo Message Posting:

Please be sure to add John Wilhite and Prairiecreek to the links for horse transport for your groups. I have personally met John and rode the "highway" with him and can personally attest to his love and care for the horses he transports. S. & L. S.

John,

We have not met, as of yet. But you met my wife Jennifer, when you picked up our girls from Gulf Port after the hurricane and transported them to Western New York. Well Jenn and I would like to thank you again for treating our girls as if they were your own. Especially Tina, our overo paint who was in foal.

We are pleased to announce the birth of KATY. She came into the world about 3 weeks early and the coldest day of the winter. She is doing great.

On a very sad note, after 12 days Tina passed away, ( Torsion Colic ) Twisted Gut. We have spent the last few days mourning. But now it's time to, as Jenn says (pull up our muck boots and get down to the business of living ). Katy is doing very well.

We have enclosed a couple of pics. We hope they bring a smile to you and yours, as they do us. Every chance we get, we tell people who transported our girls.

Many Thanks

Bill & Jenn

As a breeder of Foundation Morgan horses I found myself in the position of needing horse transport often for stock coming to me and stock that had been sold and needed to be transported to their new homes. I had gone through a string of horse transporters none of whom I felt comfortable recommending, at my wits end I happened to ask a fellow Morgan
horse breeder if she knew anyone who was reliable and was told that Prairie
Creek Performance Horses and Transport was the only way to go she had used
them multiple times and she trusted them without reservation.

It all sounded to good to be true as the people I had been dealing with were far from a shining review like that. I figured I didn’t have anything to lose and if Prairie Creek was half as
good as they were touted as being I would be grateful. As it turns out Prairie Creek Performance Horses and Transport was far BETTER than I was led to believe.
John Willhite and his partner Jim are not only honest and caring professionals but they are outstanding horsemen who are friendly, responsible and great human and equine communicators. They go the extra mile for their human clients but what impressed me even more was the concern and care they give the horses that they haul. Prairie Creeks rigs are always clean and perfectly maintained. The bedding is always deep and fresh, food
and water is always available and they stop to rest the horses often. The prices quoted for transport are always reasonable and I would say a BARGAIN for the care and service that is received. I have used this outstanding transport company for a number of years now and have recommended them to scores of people who now use them as well. I cant count the number if times I have gotten a phone call from a person I have recommended Prairie
Creek too thanking me again and again for the information and raving over the wonderful condition the horses arrived in or how patient and caring John or Jim were in loading and unloading the horses they never get upset or worried about the time they might need to spend doing it the " right and safe" way rather than the " fast" way. In all truth I wouldn’t entrust my horses or my clients horses to anyone other than Prairie Creek Transport so much so that I have included Prairie Creek in my sales contracts for Old Growth Oak Morgans, when I sell a horse it is part of the contract that the transporter will be Prairie Creek to ensure the safest mode of transport to the new owners home and all horses I buy or have transported to me is through Prairie Creek. John and Jim are more than just safe, ethical, professional, and experienced horseman with the best prices they are in the plainest words "Good People" I
am more than convinced that Prairie Creek Performance Horses and Transport are the absolute BEST in Horse Transport out there.
