Welcome to Dorset Horse Watch
Dorset Horse Watch
Dorset is a fabulous county for the horse
rider and owner, whether it be galloping along the shore, trekking
through the countryside, or training the competitive horse.
Equine crime can be soul destroying and it is not just about the
financial loss there is also the emotional distress, and it is a
sad fact that horses, trailers, lorries and tack can occasionally
disappear without trace.
Being a member of Dorset Horse Watch can help to protect you
from crime as you can access security advice and information, which
will help you to keep your equine and tack safe. As a member
you will receive information on equine related crimes and incidents
from across the county of Dorset, so that you can be aware of any
suspicious activity that may occur.
We offer security advice on all aspects of horse ownership and
yard security, whether you own a single horse or a competition
yard.
Everyone is a potential target for thieves, but membership of
Dorset Horse Watch allows us to pass on to you the advice and help
that you need to help you prevent crime.
