Specific Equine Needs
Are you a horse lover or a horse owner? Most owners of horses are unaware of the fact that if their horse injures a person, through no fault of their own, they will be held responsible for any injuries or damages that are caused. We all know that horses are extremely strong and can inflict a lot of serious damage if they want to. Most horses can be easily contained in a pen or a fenced off pasture, but there are the rare times when a horse discovers that it is stronger or more powerful than it suspected. Once a horse discovers that it can clear a fence easily, there may be no containing this powerful animal.
It can be so much easier to have a cat or a dog as a pet because they are small and manageable. When you have a horse, you have to consider a lot of different things. The average pleasure riding horse is generally between 800 and 1200 pounds, and an animal of this size can be a powerful force if it breaks loose and is galloping down a road or on someone’s property. Your neighbour may not enjoy the fact that your horse is running loose and has kicked out some of their fence or had a snack in their garden. Many decorative plants make an appetising salad bar for the average horse, and any damage that the horse causes can translate into an expensive day for you.
A horse has a large appetite and could clear out quite a lot of decorative plants in a short amount of time. They can also trample and destroy landscaping features and cause other problems. The last thing any owner wants is for their horse to be on the loose with no control, but unfortunately, it does happen occasionally. What you will want to consider is having adequate equine insurance in place for these events. A good equine insurance policy can cover a lot of unexpected damage. You can also obtain much-needed caravan insurance for your horse caravan for when you need to travel with your horse.
