Horsewatch Winter Campaign Begins In Bradford

Tuesday 1 November 2011

The Bradford South Horse-Watch Co-ordinator, PCSO Julie Hansord says there will be no excuses for those who leave their animals loose or illegally tethered.

The winter weather can leave horses vulnerable to the elements and also create potentially dangerous situations on public highways.

PCSO Julie Hansord is urging people to think carefully before purchasing horses and also to consider the number they have in their care:

“If you do not have the time, the money, suitable grazing land and stables then please do not buy a horse.

“As the owner, you are responsible for every horse you own. There are no excuses as to why your horse would be loose on the highway or tethered illegally on private or Council land.

“Likewise it is not acceptable to leave your horse in a garden without being fed and adequately cared for.

“A horse is totally dependent on the owner, it is irresponsible for people to buy a horse when they cannot care for them, having no stable, grazing or the knowledge that is required.

“If children want to learn to ride, please consider taking them to a riding school, which caters for both adults and children of all abilities and levels.

“The penalties for not looking after a horse in the correct way can be significant.

“If you keep a horse on your property without the correct facilities, you could risk losing your home by breaches your housing tenancy.

“You will receive a summons if your horse is loose on the highway and it will be seized if no owner can be found. This will likely involve having to pay a fee for its keeping. Similarly, you could be fined £5000 if you do not have a legal horse passport which is required to own such an animal.

“We work closely with our partners to tackle these issues and if you need help to re home your horse, please ask and we can direct you to the right services that can assist.

“As part of our winter campaign, we will also be providing owners with personal crime prevention advice, particularly around the safe storing of equipment including tacks and rugs.”
