If your horse business involves having someone else’s horses in your care, custody or control, such as, boarding, breeding and training, this coverage is for you.  It will protect you in the event something happens to a customer’s horse due to an accident, sickness, disease or theft and you are held responsible. This is a two limit policy with one limit applying per horse and the other is a maximum limit per year. This does not include owned horses. 

Horse Clubs and Associations
