How old are horses when they retire and where do they go?
Any of our Police Horses, which are retired, are loaned through a loan scheme administered by HAPPA (the Horse and Pony Protection Association). Horses are loaned out to a suitable home under a legally binding agreement. They are visited twice a year and should their home fall below standard then the horse would be removed and returned to the nearest HAPPA rescue centre. For more details of HAPPA, visit their wesite. You can find the link on the top right of the page.
