Insurance question

[Chocoholic]

Hi

just looking at insuring my new pony (3 year old Welsh d) and I’m unsure which policy to go for in regards to amount paid out in vets fees. One covers £2000 in vet fees and the other covers £4000 for an extra £6 a month. Also is it worth adding on alternative or complimentary therapy? My last horse was 28 so was no longer insured so it’s been a while since I’ve had to sort insurance. He will be used for low level stuff mainly hacking and the odd local show.
Thanks in advance for any help/advice

I’d always go for the higher cover, vet bills can rack up fast once you start. Most of the lameness investigation ones I’ve had have hit £3.5k fast.

With your horse being a youngster look at Agria equine life time insurance, think it's 10k of vets fees a year and any illness etc is covered for life, not just one year

Thank you that’s what I was thinking ?

The lifetime cover is a new insurance but they've been insuring horses and stuff for many years so I'd imagine pretty good
