Horse Sourcing & Acquisitions

Horse Sourcing & Acquisition

Horse Sourcing & Acquisitions — Europe / UK

The brief: We find the right sport horse (showjumping, polo cross-over, eventing) in Europe/UK, run the due diligence, and deliver it to your barn in Dubai—end-to-end.

  • Profile & short-list: Rider goals, budget, ideal age/record → targeted short-list from trusted UK/EU yards and agents.
  • Trials & due diligence: Private trial rides, competition videos, full vetting with radiographs + independent review; insurance arranged.
  • Deal & paperwork: Negotiation, contracts, deposits, pre-export prep (health certs, passports).
  • Logistics: Quarantine, flights, customs, and last-mile stabling on arrival (in partnership with premium shipper Equitrans).
  • Settle-in & program: Acclimation plan, shoeing/dental checks, feed transition, and a training schedule aligned to your season.

What you get:

A correctly matched horse, clean paperwork, transparent costs/timelines, and one accountable team from trial ride to first schooling session.

Beyond Ownership

We take care of your horses, your home, and your peace of mind. Whether you’re moving permanently or seasonally, our team delivers complete discretion and seamless service, so you and your horses arrive ready to live, compete, and thrive in Dubai.

Faqs

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of horses are available for sale?
We source a wide range of horses for sale, including competition horses, dressage and show jumping horses, leisure riding horses and young prospects. Availability is driven by suitability rather than volume, as many of the best horses are offered through private networks rather than public listings. Each recommendation is made with your riding experience, goals and long-term partnership in mind.
How do private horse sales work?
Private horse sales involve discreet transactions that are not publicly advertised. Through Horse & Houses, buyers gain access to verified breeders, owners and trainers who prefer confidentiality throughout the sale process. This approach often allows for more honest discussions, better suitability matching and a calmer experience for both horse and buyer.
Can I request specific breeds, ages or training levels?
Yes. Every horse search is tailored to you. We begin by understanding your riding background, discipline, confidence level and future ambitions, then source horses that genuinely align with those requirements. This helps avoid unsuitable purchases and ensures the horse fits both your current ability and long-term plans.
Do you assist with vet checks and pre-purchase examinations?
Yes. We support the full pre-purchase vetting process, working with qualified veterinarians to ensure checks are carried out properly and transparently. We also help you understand the findings clearly, discussing any considerations so decisions are made with both welfare and longevity in mind.
Do you arrange horse transport locally or internationally?
We assist with horse transport both locally and internationally. This includes coordinating trusted transport providers and ensuring the journey is appropriate for the horse’s welfare and experience. Our role is to help make the transition as smooth and stress-free as possible.
How do I know if a horse is suitable for my riding level?
Suitability is assessed through honest discussion, careful selection and professional judgement. Where possible, viewings and trial rides are arranged to understand temperament, rideability and confidence under saddle. We prioritise long-term enjoyment and safety over appearance or performance alone.
