Fostering Home Fostering Policies Application Form Fostering Stages EHPPS Essex Horse and Pony Protection Society Registered Charity No. 297893

It is our policy not to re-home any horse or pony under the age of two years. In special circumstances, we allow two year olds to go on foster to very experienced homes where they can get used to being properly handled well before the backing process starts, which begins once the horse has turned three years old.

We do not allow any of our fostered horses to be bred from.  

Our horses and ponies are on loan to the Fosterer and therefore the Fosterer has no ownership rights over the said animal, thus it cannot be sold.

We do not allow Fosterers to enter into formal agreements with third parties to part or full loan any of our horses or ponies.

All fostered horses and ponies must be fully insured by the Fosterer for the duration of the Fostering Agreement.
