This seems a bit morbid but I was talking about this to the OH last night and realised I'm not sure what happens in this situation - what do people do with their horse if they're injured and can't manage the return journey?
My OH does come with me at times but he can't drive! Useless I know. I also go out quite a lot on my own and in some cases on quite long journeys. I've read some great threads on here giving practical tips like leaving contact details etc., but what to do with the horse and lorry?
I have lorry insurance but that doesn't cover breakdown. I've seen a thing called equine rescue services for breakdown recovery and they transport your horse but that seems to cover a breakdown.
Ofc I'd hope never to be in this situation, and I feel a bit odd asking just before I'm due out on a xc trip, but these things need to be thought about beforehand really.
Tips, advice or experiences?
