The result of over two years of field testing with input from multiple working equine veterinarians and their technicians, THIS Horsestock has emerged unparalleled in human safety, patient safety, ease of use, and value. Several proprietary and/or patent pending features maximize safety and ease of use. The design, features, customization options, and product quality raise the industry standard for mobile equine stocks. It’s time you expected more and THIS Horsestock delivers.
THIS Horsestock is specifically designed to be customized by you to fit your needs and your budget. It is offered in both single and two stall configurations with flexibility in gate choices. This allows you to choose from a wide range of overall specifications to suit your needs, without incurring the costs of custom design. If you have specific needs that are not addressed with standard designs or options, we can create any custom option that does not compromise overall design or safety. I welcome your input and feedback.
Deploying and transporting THIS Horsestock
When you arrive onsite, whether it’s paved road or in the field, you can have THIS Horsestock ready to deploy safely, easily and reliably; without need of complicated or troublesome power hook ups:
Select a suitably flat and level location
Remove one pin that retains the trailer tongue
Release one latch behind each wheel to deploy the wheel catch plates
Put the vehicle in reverse and let the engineering do the rest
The dog legged trailer tongue allows for the tailgate to drop without unhooking
Once you’re ready to leave, stow all gear, secures gates, perform a quick safety check, then just drive forward enough to roll off the wheel catch plates, lift and secure them with their latches, replace the trailer tongue pin and you’re ready to go. Using a mobile stock has never been safer, simpler or easier.
A few words from Tom, “What I learned at the 2019 AAEP convention and trade show”
There is an apparent need for high quality portable and stationary stocks for in clinic use. While we received many compliments and quite a lot of interest in the towable mobile designs, it was the requests for building, options and information on “in clinic” portable and stationary stocks that were more common. Split level exit gates, removable-adjustable height sides & casters for in clinic mobility were options that came up more than once. I’m happy to say THIS is now offering all the mentioned options along with the continued ability to customize your build to any specification,(that does not compromise safety or the integrity of the build). I would be remiss not to mention the overwhelmingly positive comments and interest in our proprietary latch,(patent pending). Many practitioners asked if I would make our latch assembly available for retrofit to their existing stocks and that is under consideration. I’m particularly excited about the releasable side rails we’ve just designed. When attached, our removable-adjustable sides will retain more than ample structural integrity, have height choices from 46” to 38” & 30” and be releasable even under load. I’m also in the process of seeking out the best shipping options and the possibility of sourcing the assembly of units closer to final destination.
We did receive a criticism. One practitioner believed our builds to be too “robust”. We can offer the same designs in lighter materials if so desired. Savings would not in my opinion be significant; however, I am not a practitioner of equine medicine and no one knows their practice better than they themselves.
The basic stock I brought as the demo unit and the pre-production unit in the following video are no longer available but are in service with their new owners. Please check back as we will be updating and adding information when time allows. Many thanks to all that stopped by our booth, the honest praises of our designs and the input to allow us to expand our offerings in options.
Many thanks, Thomas.
The Effects of Covid on Production and Doing Business
First, I offer my heartfelt condolences to any and all that have suffered the loss of a loved one. I also offer thoughts and prayers for all that are troubled by the struggles of the day. Whether hardship is caused directly by the current pandemic, imposed restrictions or general uncertainty; I know it is not an easy time for most. My repair and fabrication business has been blessed with more work than I can do, yet the hardships of the day are impactful in many negative ways. Erratic availability of materials and parts, delays on deliveries, volatile pricing, shrinking profit margins, time losses dealing with restrictions and immeasurable “time sucks” seem to have become the norm for business and the day to day tasks for living. I know I am not alone.
Like most businesses I am looking for ways of dealing with these new realities. In my day to day work I have had to raise my rates to maintain viability. In order to continue THIS-horsestock as a viable startup I need to make some changes. To keep final customer costs down I can no longer build to order. I will only offer two limited production runs for 2021. At this time a production run will need to meet a minimum of three orders and a maximum of six. All orders will be initially run through New Lane Finance and considered “placed” with nothing down, on approved credit. Just before production begins customers will have an exact quote for a delivered unit and the option to cancel, authorize payment with New Lane Finance, pay directly or through their own financial institution. Production with a delivery date will begin when the above criteria is met with 50% down and the full balance due upon accepted delivery.
Last, I want to thank all that, like me, look to the future. To be looking forward is to be hopeful. Thank you for looking into THIS-horsestock and thanks to the many contacts that have expressed their genuine interest. I honestly believe I have created the best product line available and continue to look forward to meeting your particular needs with lasting value. Feel free to reach out, I welcome your questions and never consider chatting a waste of time.
All the best, Thomas.

FUNCTION
THIS Horsestock design has the versatility to provide high quality care to horses, miniatures, and donkeys with multiple adjustment points for the safety and needs of providers and animals. Select from a variety of options to configure a stock that suits your practice without need to compromise. With proper precautions these units are suitable for stand alone stationary use as well.
Safety
With a bit of innovation, there's no reason for horse care to be dangerous for either human or animal. It is safer for people to have a corner post and two options for loading. The proprietary design that allows for simultaneous gate release with emergency post removal greatly enhances animal safety should they go down in the stock or begin to panic and need a quick release. It is solid, secure and only available in THIS Horsestock. Our releasable height adjustable side rails design will allow removal even under a load from the inside.
EFFICIENCY
The design allows for an ease of transition to and from deployment not offered by any other. All components have been carefully configured for easy learning, use and minimal maintenance. The double drop trailer tongue allows clearance for tailgates to be dropped for full access to equipment without unhooking.
