My BO has a 4 horse GN with tackroom but no LQ. She has enough truck (diesel dually) to pull it and is a good driver. But the size can be an issue....

I second the recommendation to be careful about riding this horse before diagnosis. While I understand wanting to be sure she is not just temporarily...

If you are doing bars in between low enough to socialize, I would suggest having a solid wall by the feeder. So every stall can have one barred side and...

I am not sure what you can offer her since you dont have first hand experience with a dog in this condition. I guess I would go the route of advising...
