The Irish Shows Association would advise all animal owners who have their Ani- mals Insured to have Insurance cover extended to cover them while showing Animals at Shows, we understand that it costs very little or nothing at all depend- ing on who you have insurance with. If you are one of the few who don’t have cover we would advise that you think about putting it in place for this purpose, it may be well worthwhile. The reason for us giving you this advice is to protect yourself in the event your animal lashing out, and injuring someone or damaging someone’s property, if that were to happen, and it is established that your animal was out of your control you may be held responsible, or partly responsible for any injury or damaged caused & may end up paying all, or part of any settlement reached . ______
