Everybody plans to keep their horses and ponies for life, but that
is not always possible. What happens to them in the future when
they go to new owners? We plan for our retirement but we don't plan
for our equine friends. If you become ill and can't look after your
horse, what then? Money problems, divorce can all lead to a change
in circumstances for your horse or pony. Two minutes of your time
is all it takes to enter their details in the database, if the
information is never used, then they have obviously had a life
the way that you planned it. If the information is needed then
you took care of them!
Horses can't say - "I'm a little scared of dark trailers, but give
me a minute or so and offer me a carrot and I can do it, but
please don't run a rope behind me because that terrifies me."
They can't say - "My previous owner used to have the dentist
take the pain away at the back of my mouth because I have some teeth
that grow at funny angles, I wish that dentist could take pain away now,
it hurts so much."
They can't say - "Please don't hit me any more, I just don't want
to go near that thing. It looks like the car that hit me when I
was little, I don't want that hurting again.
"HorseMates! gives you the chance to say those things for them now!
Horse security is so important and HorseMates! can help provide it.
If your horse has a freeze mark or a micro chip then you should enter
it into the HorseMtes! register, it's free.
The HorseMates! Register will provide benefit
to:
People who wish to sell a horse or pony, as they
are demonstrating their own credibility as a horse person by taking the time to
document information on their animal.
People who wish to buy a horse or pony, as they
will be able to check on the past history of a horse or pony and gain a better
insight into the needs of the animal, and the suitability of the animal for your
needs.
People who are about to loan a horse or pony. Even if you are about to loan an animal
from a sanctuary or rescue centre, there may
be information on file about the horse or pony with a previous owner.
People who wish to track down animals that they
have had re-house in the past can now have an opportunity to communicate with
the current owners, assuming they are in agreement.
New born horses and ponies. They will have records
maintained on them so they cannot be sold on in the future as younger than they
actually are, or for work they are not suited to.
Most importantly, the horses and ponies themselves
will benefit, by having the chances of them being re-housed unsuitably
dramatically reduced, and hopefully in the future, as HorseMates! grows,
completely removed.
