Agreement
If you cannot keep adopted equine, you will return the equine at no charge to NEER North. And that if NEER North cannot receive equine due to space limitations, you will give NEER North at least three (3) months to try to find space. If at that time NEER North still does not have space you will work to place the equine; however, if you sell the equine it is understood that the contract you signed upon adoption will transfer to the equine buyer and a copy of the transferred contract with appropriate signatures and dates will be provided to NEER North.
The equine may not be bred. In the case the equine is accidentally bred, any offspring are the property of NEER North.
I, the undersigned, understand I am applying to adopt an equine from NEER North. I agree that I have read and understand the adoption terms and responsibilities, including those requiring financial, labor and time commitments. I also understand that I must complete the application process and my facility (home or boarding barn) must be approved before being allowed to adopt any equine from NEER North. I understand that I may not be able to adopt the equine I want for various reasons. I agree and understand that NEER North reserves the right to request a background check to verify personal information. I agree not to hold NEER North liable in the event of injury, death, or damage to any human, animal or property as a result of activities or actions of the equine I adopt.
I HAVE CAREFULLY READ, CLEARLY UNDERSTAND, AND VOLUNTARILY SIGN THIS ADOPTION AGREEMENT.
