Mare Owner agrees to pay all charges when due. Mare Owners with outstanding balances owed to the Farm will be charged a late fee of $20.00 per billing cycle. Any Mare Owner with a balance at least 120 days past due will be turned over to collections. Mare Owner agrees to cover all costs, and expenses associated with collection. In the event collection of Mare Owner's account is placed in the hands of an attorney, Mare Owner agrees a minimum fee of $400.00 shall be assessed as attorney's fees.

Mare Owner agrees to pay Farm, the sum of $10.00 per day for dry stalled mares; $12.00 per day for wet stalled mares or $8.00 per day for dry private lot mares; $10.00 per day for wet private lot mares. This amount will be charged per calendar day, or portion thereof, in which the mare is in the custody or control of Farm. All mare care charges, including any charges of horseshoeing, veterinary care or similar charges shall be due and payable prior to the return of mare to Mare Owner. In the event the above-named stallion stands at a commercial breeding and/or boarding facility, said facility will be considered an independent contractor for purposes of this agreement.

General Conditions

This contract is a "Live Foal" contract. "Live Foal" is herein defined as a newborn foal, which stands and nurses without assistance. If the foal is born dead, or if the mare does not otherwise carry to term, there shall be a return privilege for the following breeding season only if the notification procedures as set forth below are followed.

None of the above-described fees shall be refundable except as described below. However, Farm guarantees a return breeding for the following breeding season for said mare or an approved substitute should a "live foal" as above-described not result from this mating. Should this mating not produce a live foal, it must be evidenced by a written statement from a licensed veterinarian dated within one week from the date of death of the fetus, or in the alternative, a sworn statement from said veterinarian that the mare is no longer in foal and the date of fetus loss is unknown.

In the event of the death of the above-named stallion, this contract shall become null and void. No money shall be refunded to mare owner except the booking fee if the mare has not been bred. In the event of the stallion's death prior to the delivery of a live foal, the live foal guarantee as above described shall become null and void. Should the mare die subsequent to payment of the booking fee but prior to breeding, only the booking fee will be refunded to Mare Owner. No other fees or charges are refundable except as described in this paragraph.

Mare Owner agrees to furnish a negative Coggins Test (EIA) upon mare's arrival to the breeding farm. All mares must be accompanied upon arrival by a 30 day EVA (Equine Viral Artiritis) health certificate. Mare Owner authorizes Farm, to engage performance of such other veterinary services as Farm may deem necessary for the proper treatment, care and protection of the mare and/or foal at side. This is to be done at the Mare Owner's expense and will be billed and payable as above described. No sick mares will be accepted by Farm for any reason. Mares that arrive and show obvious signs of illness will not be allowed on Farm premises. This evaluation is at the sole discretion of the Farm.

In the event of colic or life threatening illness of the mare, all means available will be utilized to save said mare unless otherwise instructed by Mare Owner, including surgery if recommended by the veterinarian. Mare Owner shall pay any and all costs in connection therewith.

Farm shall not be liable for any sickness, disease, estray, theft, death, or injury which may be suffered by the mare and/or foal at side, or any other cause of action whatsoever arising out of or connected in any way with the breeding or boarding of the mare and/or foal. This includes, but is not limited to, any personal injury or disability which the Mare Owner or Owners may receive while on the premises of the breeding facility.

Mares that are not halter broken will not be accepted. Mare Owner further authorizes breeding by artificial insemination.

Farm request you return a copy of your mare's registration papers with this contract.

It is understood that the breeding season for Farm commences on February 5 of the calendar year and terminates July 10 of the same calendar year. Mares that do not come into season or are not settled within said breeding season as above-described shall be carried over to the following year, or may be re-bred during the following heat(s) if it is practical for Farm to do so. In the event mare owner elects to rebreed during the following breeding season, Mare Owner agrees to pay any increase in the stallion service fee, chute fee, or mare care fee.

Sale of the mare by Mare Owner to another party or parties will terminate the live foal guarantee as set forth above and described in this contract unless same is acknowledged and accepted in writing by Farm.

Farm will gladly accept checks with a valid driver’s license and major credit card number. A $75.00 return check fee will be charged for every return check received by the Farm. Farm also accepts all major credit cards: Visa, Master Card, American Express and Discover Cards.
