Loan Agreement for Horse
About this form

This agreement details the responsibilities, payment terms, and other obligations of both parties involved in the transaction.

Loaning offers a variety of options suited to the individual loaner/owner and horse, some may include a monthly fee, some may be livery, feet and other costs associated with having a horse of your own and others may even involve no cost. Some loans may involve certain time frames where as others may be for life.
As the name suggests, leasing is where you get a horse from its owner and pay (usually) a monthly fee. A loan is where the horse comes with no cost and you are responsible for the upkeep.
As a owner loaning your horse out allows you to keep them in the family without the financial costs and time commitments. If you can no longer provide what your horse needs then allowing someone else to love them must be a good feeling especially in long term loans.
"full loan" = the owner gives full responsibility of care to a 'loaner', and the horse either stays at the same yard or moves away to be cared for by the other person, for usually a set period of weeks, months or years until the owner wants the horse back (if ever).
The owner is responsible for replacing tack, buying feed, yard purchases and all that sort of thing. A full loan is where the owner remains the owner, but the loaner has responsibility for the horse every day and usually moves it to a yard of their choice.
When sharing a horse the owner continues to care for and ride the horse at its current location but allows a sharer to come and ride their horse for a set number of days each week in return for a financial contribution and/or help with the horse's care.
How long the loan period is agreed to last for? Is it a free loan? Who pays for the horse's costs of keep, farrier, veterinary fees, competition fees and worming etc? Who is responsible for and who pays for the horse's annual flu and tetanus vaccinations? Who is responsible for insuring the horse?
