Tailored and carefully considered policies for horses 16 years and older. Find an insurance policy truly fit for purpose designed by industry specialists.
With decades of experience brokering insurance for the equine industry, we understand the requirements and considerations of owning a veteran horse or pony. We also understand that not two horses are the same – this is why we work with our clients to tailor the right veteran horse insurance policy to meet the needs of the horse and the owner.
As horse owners ourselves, we know that the health of our horse or pony is of the utmost importance, this is why we take great care in tailoring insurance for older horses. As horses and ponies age, they become more vulnerable to certain conditions and illnesses, and without the right insurance, this can inflate what is already a big financial commitment. A veteran horse insurance policy provides reassurance that your older horse will get the extra care that may be needed and that it is covered by a policy specially tailored to meet the needs of your veteran horse or pony.

What is classed as a veteran horse?
A horse is classed as an older or veteran horse once they reach 15 years old. But as the saying goes – “you’re only as old as you feel”. With the advances in care and nutrition, horses can stay active and healthy well into their 20s, something worth considering when taking out insurance.
Should you insure your older horse?
As horse owners, you have a duty of care to ensure that your horse or pony lives a happy life. Although it is not a legal requirement to have veteran horse insurance, the financial commitment can become overwhelming if you do not have sufficient cover for unforeseen events, or if your horse falls ill.
