CODE OF CONDUCT

FOR THE WELFARE OF THE HORSE

The South African Equestrian Federation (SAEF) expects all those involved in National Equestrian sport to adhere to SAEF’s Code of Conduct and to acknowledge and accept that the welfare of the pony/horse must be paramount and must never be subordinated to competitive or commercial influences.

1. At all stages during the preparation and training of competition ponies/horses, welfare must take precedence over all other demands. This includes good horse management, training methods, farrier and tack, and transportation.
2. Ponies and competitors must be fit, competent and in good health before they are allowed to compete. This encompasses medication use, surgical procedures that threaten welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the misuse of aids.
3.  Events must not prejudice pony/horse welfare. This involves paying careful attention to the competition areas, ground surfaces, weather conditions, stabling, site safety and fitness of the pony/horse for onward travel after the event.
4. Every effort must be made to ensure that ponies receive proper attention after they have competed and that they are treated humanely when their competition careers are over. This covers proper veterinary care, competition injuries, euthanasia and retirement.
5. SAEF urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels of education in their areas of expertise.
