Yard Security:

• Have security cameras and motion sensor lights.

• Lock up your tack room, field gates and other entrances.

• Display signs on entrances about CCTV operation, microchipped horses and marked tack. This can deter thieves.

• Check fences and gates regularly and repair if necessary.

• Make sure gates can't be picked up off the hinges, consider having locks both sides of gates.

• Mark tack (saddles, bridles, rugs etc...) ideally take tack home instead of leaving at the yard.

• Remove trailers or use hitch/wheel locks or place out of sight from the public.

Horse Security:

• Keep horse passports safe and up to date, ideally keep at home.

• Make sure your horse is microchipped, which will make sure horse harder to sell.

• Take photos of your horse during summer and winter. As they may appear different during different seasons.

• Don't leave head collars on your horse or lead ropes near the horse when you'r not there. As it will make it more difficult for them to catch the horse.
