Horse owners liability insurance

The liability of the animal keeper is regulated in the Civil Code. § 833. (Liability of the animal keeper).

Animal husbandry liability insurance is recommended for every livestock owner since, depending on the damage incurred, the amounts due can amount to millions and the livestock owner is liable for the damage caused by his animal in unlimited amounts.

The animal husbandry liability insurance covers personal injury and property damage to third parties caused by your dog / horse. In addition, the Animal Liability Insurance protects against third party claims against you that are unjustified or for which you are not liable.

In addition to the private liability insurance, the horse liability is the most important livestock insurance, as in a damage inflicted by the horse to a third party (personal injury, property or pecuniary loss), the horse owner is liable with all his current and future assets for the damage caused by the horse. The sums insured in the horse insurance should be quite high, since experience has shown that the damage (property and personal injury) can be considerable. Horse liability can include a variety of modular risks, such as participating in tournaments, riding riders, and the unwanted deck act.

Some providers grant horse-shoe discounts on the second horse.

The non-commercial, short-term care of one’s own horse by another person, as well as other riders (but not with all providers!) Is insured in the horse insurance, as the horse owner is liable in the first place.
