IMPORTANT NOTICE TO ANIMAL OWNERS
INVOLVED IN SHOWING ANIMALS:

The I.S.A would advise all Animal owners who have their Animals insured to have the Insurance cover them while showing Animals at Shows.We understand that it costs very little or nothing at all depending on whom you have Insurance cover with.

If you are one of the few who don’t have cover we would advise that you think about putting it in place for this purpose. It may be well worthwhile.

The reason for us giving you this advice is to protect yourself in the event of your animal lashing out, and injuring someone or damaging someone’s property, if that were to happen, and it is established that your animal was out of your control you may be held responsible, or partly responsible for any injury or damage caused and may end up paying, all or part of any settlement reached.
