Should you get a vet check (pre purchase exam) before buying a new horse?

Many people in the horse world will have heard the words ‘vetting or vet check’ when looking at buying or selling a horse. At Rangiora Vet Centre we strongly recommend that all prospective purchasers obtain a full veterinary examination before buying. Having a pre-purchase examination is never a guarantee that the horse won’t develop any issues in the future, but what it does give you is the knowledge that there are no discernible issues to start with.
