Are you thinking about owning or loaning a horse? If so, it's important that you take on board as much information about their care as possible before making your final decision. Horses rely on us for daily care, consistency and commitment.
Taking care of a horse is also a significant financial responsibility; so make sure that you understand what all the everyday costs are likely to add up to, and bear in mind that there will occasionally be unexpected costs for things like emergency vet care.
Our pages will guide you through everything you need to know, helping you feel confident and prepared for the exciting journey ahead.
Horse passports
Passports are a vital piece of documentation and while form-filling can be a bit onerous, it is really important to comply with all the guidelines. Under current legislation, all horses must be microchipped and have a passport.
