Your horse may assume that they take pride of place in the horsebox, but they would be mistaken... Whether guarding the ramp, having a snooze in the driver's seat or giving the steering wheel a spin with their paw, these canine companions have made it clear who's in charge
Duncan
"This is a photo of my four-year-old Jack Russell called Duncan. His absolute favourite thing is a trip in the lorry and he cries like a baby as soon as he sees me open the door until he's allowed in. He then sits in the driver's seat watching me and waiting to set off." — Tracey Smallwood
Gordon
"This is Lucinda Sims' dog Gordon, making the most of the sunshine in the lorry." — Suzy Stephens
Bear
"As soon as Bear (pictured) and Louie see the lorry out on the yard they get straight in." — Sophie Stewart
Ruby
"This is seven-year-old Ruby. She is with me every time I get in the horsebox. She spends her winters showjumping and summers at polo matches. Here she is in this picture fly swotting!" — Samantha Luff
Paddington and Missy
"Paddington and Missy on guard at Merrist Wood" — Lauren Faggetter
Alfie
"This is Alfie the Jack Russel taken at home. He refuses to be left so jumps in the cab at the first opportunity." — Kelly Burkitt
Bruno
"This is my beautiful rescue Staffie 'Bruno' — who loves coming out with me and my horse in the lorry." — Jacqui Brown
Twizzie and Noggin
"Here's Twizzie and Noggin getting a good view from the lorry at home in Rutland, prior to leaving to go to an event" — Gemma Redrup
Boomer
"This is a picture of our Australian Kelpie puppy Boomer snoozing in the trailer while our horse Drizzle watches over him!" — Emma Pickett
Toby
"This is Toby at Richmond Horse Trials earlier this year." — Charlie Newton
Zen and Yuri
"Zen is the spaniel at the bottom and Yuri is a black Russian terrier. They were all snuggled up after a long day of eventing." — Sammy Taylor
