I am a 'happy hacker'? I have never insured my horse which I have owned for 8 years. Last year I moved to a yard and became more aware of insurance, before that it was simply something I had never considered. Due to a mild injury of his suspensory ligament I have been offered vet cover with the exclusion of both forelegs. I ride on private land the majority of the time, so the possibility of causing any form of accident is virtually nil. The insurance is 292.30 at 26.57 per month. I wonder if I would be better off simply putting money aside each month in case I face significant vet bills in the future? I understand the logic of insurance for competition horses etc. Opinions would be much appreciated, does anyone else feel the same as me?
