Buy Irish and support the country’s horse industry


  • Today’s Horse & Hound (19 August) includes a special report on Ireland’s horse welfare problems — held by charities to be the worst ever.

    A combination of the recession and overbreeding has led to a fall in the market for some Irish horses.

    One of the answers is for British buyers to look to Ireland when buying their new sport horse.

    Here is a list of reputable horse sales in Ireland, but there are many breeders and dealers who also offer quality Irish horses.
