Sharing agreement for two horse owner-riders, riding for
pleasure
About this document
These are documents to govern the fractional (joint) ownership of a horse. They provide a framework which can be extended, reduced or changed to suit almost any circumstances.
It has been drawn for a situation where two people share ownership for shared riding pleasure. The sharing can be equal or one party can own a larger share than the other. The care and maintenance too can be shared in whatever proportions the sharers wish. However, responsibilities are itemised, so that specific provision can be made.
Not only are the legal provisions important but the practical provisions too. We have included sensible ‘horse management’ paragraphs which deal with the practical issues such as who is to exercise the horse when and how, whether the parties can take riding lessons, transport of the horse and the horse trailer and more.
This document is suitable for competition owners and riders: BE, BD, BSJA or unaffiliated, as well as individuals who want to ride but perhaps lack equestrian facilities. Note, they are not suitable for sharing a race horse in training.
