Veterinary fees are expensive, there is no denying that: it is private medical healthcare after all. Even without general anaesthesia and major surgery, bills can soon get into the thousands; which is why insuring your horse for vets fees is highly recommended. However, there are different policies available and it’s worth looking into the different options before making a decision.
