Looking for Horse Agistment?
If you have a horse and are looking for horse agistment the best place to start is the Internet. There are numerous horse agistment providers listed and many have their own websites where you can browse and find out exactly what is on offer. There are also directories on the Internet listing providers.
Local business or telephone directories will also list most horse agistment providers in your area. Magazines for horse lovers often include advertisements for horse agistment.
One of the first things to consider is how far do you have to travel to get to your horse agistment provider of choice. The nearer you are the better. If there are no providers of horse agistment in your immediate area and you have to widen the area you are looking in, consider which means of transport you are using to get there. If you do not have a car you may need to use public transport. If you do have a car, perhaps you should avoid having to cross town to get there.
Then ask yourself what your requirements are. Horse agistment can cover a very wide range of services from just outdoor grazing with shelter and you do the rest, or you can go for the top of the range deal and get everything done for you. Even have your horse given a regular hot wash! However, obviously the more services that you employ the higher the fees will be. If you have plenty of spare time then you could go for the lesser option. Not only will you save yourself money but also you will be able to spend more time with your horse. When you love horses that is where you will want to be – with them. If you do not have the spare time make sure you earn enough money to pay the extra fees!
Once you have decided what your requirements are pick two or three horse agistment facilities to go and have a look at. Never just look at one. Give yourself something to compare with. See what services they provide. Do you have to provide any of your own equipment? Are you restricted to certain hours when using the facility, this is more important if you are on a do-it-yourself arrangement. Most facilities will be only too pleased to show you round and if not, why not? It will not always be convenient for you to go so, out of politeness you should make an appointment.
After deciding what your requirements are, making your choice of horse agistment provider and before you commence using the facility always have a contract drawn up. This stops many problems from arising at a later date. Once the details of the contract have been discussed, agreed upon and the contract signed, both parties to the agreement are protected and both are fully aware of what is expected of them.
Horses are wonderful animals and deserve the very best agistment that you can afford.

Is my dad's car strong enough to pull a horse trailer and will it ruin the engine?
I would like to compete with my horse belle. My dad does not have a 4x4 but a aproximately 1650cc car or something like that. I would only be taking one horse and the trailer is lightweight.What would happen to his engine if we fif pull a trailer with his car? please help, as I would love to compete as soon as possible!! Thank you xx
Personally I would not pull any type of trailer with an engine that small. It may be ok on the flat, but the world is full of hills which go up & down. You do not need an engine with a high bhp output, but one with high torque - a turbo diesel of at least 1.9 litres capacity, & the bigger the towing vehicle the better, think Peugeot 406/407, Ford Mondeo, Vauxhall Vectra, size as a starter. As you will be transporting what amounts to livestock, a lot more care must be taken than when pulling a 'static' load especially when accelerating / braking & cornering. Imagine 500 kg with a mind of its own moving about behind you.
