Horse Insurance Guide

A horse or a pony is one of the most expensive pets you can buy, never mind the cost of stables, food and transportation costs. Horse and Pony owners have the option of insuring either the animal, rider, or trailer separately or a combination of the three together. The good news is that equestrian insurance is widely available in the UK and increasingly quotations can be obtained online.

What does Horse Insurance cover?

In some respects, this type of cover is similar to pet insurance and includes vets fees should the horse or pony require medical treatment following an injury or illness. Included within vet cover is dental treatment. Benefit is also paid should the Horse unexpectedly die or goes missing. Likely scenarios include theft or straying which is not uncommon. Some horse insurance policies also include public liability, personal accident, stables cover, saddlery and tack, hire of horse, loss of use, loss of entry fees to shows and events and liability of use.

Insurance protection is also available for horse riders with premiums usually dependent on age. Typical cover associated with such insurance policies may include public liability, the costs of dental treatment caused by riding accidents, death benefit, personal accident, permanent total disablement, school fee compensation in the event a young rider is injured and unable to attend education, vet fees should your horse or pony suffer an injury whilst riding and custodial liability.

For those who own horse trailers, cover is available to insure against fire, theft, accidental damage, public liability, and driving in Europe. Some horse insurance policies also include replacement hire should an incident occur resulting in the trailer not being fit for use and new for old cover if the trailer is a total write off.
