What do you think about having insurance on roses? Do you have it?

Insurance on roses? Lol. I know what you meant though. I don't own a horse, nor do I know anyone who has insurance, but I'm subscribing to this thread because it's something I'm curious about as well. I thought if I ever do get a horse, it might help relieve worry over the possibility of vet bills.

Does anyone have insurance on thier horses? If I lease this horse I might be getting I'm going to have to get insurance on it. Bc that's what the owner want and is one of the things she has Rohan's for me to lease him.
Help would be appreciated

I have never heard of a leaser purchasing insurance for a horse they do not own. Insurance for yourself? Yes.

I have both my mares insured through my own insurance. I also have my saddles insured. I pay once per year (can't remember how much), and it insures them against barn fire/trailer accident/death due to surgery (I think). If any of those were to happen, I would be payed their worth.

I think that would honestly be something that is up to they owner to pay, unless the horse/tack/what have you was already insured and the owner has included that cost in your lease fee. Just my 2 cents.

My mare is insured, I pay once a year for Mortality and Medical. Its an easy process.

I have heard of leases being insured, to protect yourself should something happen to the horse while you were using it. Otherwise you could be liable for the full worth of said horse.
