Misfortune seldom comes alone
THE OPTIMAL SUM INSURED
Both the pet owner's and the horse owner's liability insurance should have a blanket coverage amount of at least 5 million Euros for personal, property, and financial damages.
LOWER CONTRIBUTION
The contributions you need to make depend on the type and number of animals and the agreed coverage amount. An annual payment method is the most cost-effective option. Discounts are often granted to seniors and public service employees.
HOLIDAY TRIP AND STAY ABROAD
You can find out about the regulations for your pet at your vacation destination by calling the local regulatory office. Typically, for longer stays abroad within the EU, insurance coverage is provided for three years, and in other regions, for one year.
PROTECTION IN CASE OF BREACH OF OWNER’S OBLIGATIONS
It is advantageous if your contract contains an additional clause about “protection in the event of a breach of owner obligations.” Only then can you be assured of benefit in the event of damage. Since the regulations in cities and municipalities are often very confusing, it could otherwise happen that the insurance benefit does not come into force due to a breach of the owner's obligations.
CHECK FOR EXTRA RIDER RISK
Even if a guest only occasionally rides your horse, the insurance contract must include coverage for risks associated with external riders. If this service is covered, the insurer will take care of damages to the outer rider (e.g., recourse claims from health insurance in case of injuries). It's advisable to review the contract text from this perspective:
Why should you take out pet owner liability insurance?
Every dog or horse owner should take out pet owner liability insurance, even if it's not yet mandatory in all federal states. As a pet owner, you are legally obliged to compensate for any damages caused by your pet with your entire assets and income. Personal liability insurance only covers damages caused by tame small animals such as cats, guinea pigs, or birds:
Who or what is insured?
The policyholder, as the animal owner, his family, and others who look after the animal are insured. For horses, a third-party rider who does not contribute to the costs of keeping the horse is usually also insured. If there is a co-holder, their name should also be listed in the insurance contract. You can insure dogs, horses and ponies, donkeys and cattle, or other exotic animals, provided this has been agreed upon separately.
Which damages are insured?
Pet owner liability insurance covers personal injury, property damage, and financial damage caused by your animal's behaviour. It also examines claims for damages and defends itself against unjustified claims and even legal proceedings. Damage caused intentionally is, of course, not insured.
Are there different contributions for Neodirect pet + pet owner liability insurance?
Each dog must be included individually in the contract. A corresponding premium is paid for your first dog, and each additional dog is usually significantly cheaper to insure. The contribution amount also depends on your dog's breed, as a Chihuahua and a Pittbull are very different. There is no insurance coverage for certain breeds of dogs.
What do you do in case of damage?
In the event of damage, you should inform your Neo of the damage by telephone as quickly as possible. Of course, you can also do this via the app under “Report Damage.” In the case of more extensive damage, some insurers require a written report. Describe the course of the damage truthfully and under no circumstances make advance payments. The insurance company first checks the compensation claims and contacts the policyholder and the injured party.
