THE FEI CODE OF CONDUCT FOR THE WELFARE OF THE HORSE The Fédération Equestre Internationale (FEI) expects all those involved in international equestrian sport to adhere to the FEI s Code of Conduct and to acknowledge and accept that at all times the welfare of the horse must be paramount and must never be subordinated to competitive or commercial influences. 1. At all stages during the preparation and training of competition horses, welfare must take precedence over all other demands. This includes good horse management, training methods, farriery and tack, and transportation. 2. Horses and athletes must be fit, competent and in good health before they are allowed to compete. This encompasses medication use, surgical procedures that threaten welfare or safety, pregnancy in mares and the misuse of aids. 3. Events must not prejudice horse welfare. This involves paying careful attention to the competition areas, ground surfaces, weather conditions, stabling, site safety and fitness of the horse for onward travel after the event. 4. Every effort must be made to ensure that horses receive proper attention after they have competed and that they are treated humanely when their competition careers are over. This covers proper veterinary care, competition injuries, euthanasia and retirement. 5. The FEI urges all involved with the sport to attain the highest levels of education in their areas of expertise. A full copy of this Code can be obtained from the Fédération Equestre Internationale, Avenue Mon-Repos 24, CH-1005 Lausanne, Switzerland. Telephone: +41 21 310 47 47. The Code is available in English & French. The Code is also available on the FEI s website: www.fei.org.

THE INTERNATIONAL DRESSAGE RIDER CLUB (IDRC) THE INTERNATIONAL DRESSAGE TRAINER CLUB (IDTC) FEDERATION EQUESTRE INTERNATIONALE (FEI) REMINDER FOR ATHLETS AND TRAINERS REGARDING WARMING-UP AND TRAINING AREAS In recent years the warming-up areas have become more accessible to spectators, judges, press and media who enjoy watching skilful and sensitive riding and training methods. Every athlete and trainer must accept his responsibility to uphold the high level of horse welfare our sport has achieved. All warming-up and training areas are supervised by officially appointed FEI stewards. Their job is to ensure that FEI regulations are enforced and athletes and trainers maintain standards of riding and warming-up in accordance with art. 143 and 144 of the FEI General Regulations. Should any spectator, athlete, trainer or judge be concerned about, or feel they are witnessing rough or unfair riding or training, without delay they should immediately report the incident to the FEI Steward. The FEI Steward will then decide on the appropriate course of action including reporting the incident to the Chief Steward who will report to the President of the Ground Jury. More detailed information regarding disciplinary procedures can be found in the FEI General Regulations, art. 174.
