Horse Insurance

Horses are absolutely one of the most majestic animals on this earth. Every one who loves them feels this way. The love between horse and owner is such a powerful bond. When you find that special one you’ve dreamt of and that bond develops there is no other feeling that compares.

You know that whenever the stresses of life get you down, you can always count on your horse to lift your spirits. Taking a peaceful trail ride or just hanging out in the barn grooming your equine companion will do you more good than any nerve pill a doctor could prescribe.

Horse owners wholeheartedly love their horses and take pride in giving them top quality care. Making sure that they have the best hay, grain, hoof care, the nicest saddle pad, and the best fitting most comfortable saddle they can find. However, there is one area that most horse owners overlook when it comes to providing what is best for their horse and that would be the area concerning insurance coverage.

It doesn’t cross many horse owners minds about having coverage for equine. Many think that it is probably too expensive for them to afford while others just don’t see the point. Cheap horse insurance can be found quiet easily. Some companies only cost approximately 3% of the horses value yearly. You do the math and you could have a good idea what the cost might be for you. This is just to give you an idea of how cheap it could be.

Just imagine how you would feel if your horse were seriously injured and needed surgery. Veterinarian charges for major injuries are astronomical, much more than the average equine owner can afford. Many horses are humanly euthanized each year because their owners have no way to pay for major medical cost and are left with no other alternative.

Colic is very common with horses and can even require surgery to save their life if it gets severe. Horses with colic will often lye down and roll to try to relieve the stomach ache. The problem with this is it can cause the horse to twist their intestine. Surgery is the only hope when this happens. I was eye witness to a horse that had to be put down because of this sadly unfortunate circumstance.
Situations such as this are never predicted and you never know when it or something equally as tragic could happen to your equine. You have your human family members insured, so consider getting a policy for your biggest family member as well. At least check into it and I know you will be pleasantly surprised at how cheap horse insurance really can be.

No one ever needs insurance until that unforeseen moment comes their way. It could save the life of your horse in the future. It is a really small investment to make. It is definitely worth it to have that peace of mind.
