Have someone coming to see Sid on Sunday and the child sound perfect.

After having a good hour chat with the Mum, I have seen pictures of daughter riding, their horses and yard. All look great.

They are coming to meet us and try him on Sunday and if all is ok I'll be going to visit them in the week next week.

I'm going to ask her to bring with her on Sunday: Photo ID (proof she is who she says she is), Household bill (proof of address) I will also contact her farrier for a reference (although realise she's pays him so he will be favourable but its another point of contact). I will make photo copies of all these while they are here.

I will do a thorough loan agreement.

Anything else I should ask for?? Is there anything that anyone wishes they had included in an agreement in hindsight? Also do I keep the passport? (if so what happens about stamping his jabs etc)

Thank you and a cupcake for all those sharing there wisdom :)
 
Register him on NED and with your passport as on loan only. Take a vet reference as well. Check the wording on the agreement carefully to said pony can not be moved elsewhere or passed onto anyone else or shared with anyone else without your permission. Passport needs to go with the pony. I would also pm MHOL on here for final advice to cover all your bases.
 
Thanks fro the NED tip- I'll do that now and also the vet - will do.

Thanks again...

Anyone else have anything else...?
 
I'd be tempted to take photos of the horse from all angles, and in particular any distinctive marks,whorls etc, make a copy sign both copies with the loaner stating that this is the horse she is loaning.

This will provide you with a guide to use with the police if the worst happens and the horse goes missing on loan, and also lets the loaner know that you have all this as evidence of proof of ownership should she have an unscrupulous streak in her.

Plus get a photocopy of the passport before you hand it over.

You can never be too careful.
