If

Do you
agree to allow us to do a preliminary site check
where the horse will be housed (mandatory)?
Upon
finalizing the adoption, we retain the right to
perform unannounced periodic site checks on the
condition of the horse and the stable. Do you agree
to this condition (mandatory)?
Additionally,
we retain co-ownership of all equines adopted from
Friends of Arabian Horses Rescue. If the horse came
to us with registration papers, said papers will be
retained by us to help insure the safety and well
being of the horse. This is due to the high volume of
horses which are sent back into abusive situations,
neglected or sent back to auction. Under this clause,
we may unilaterally seize the horse upon our
determination that said horse is not being properly
cared for, including neglect, physical abuse or
mental abuse. If for any reason you are unable to
continue your possession of the horse, it must be
returned directly to Friends of Arabian Horses Rescue
and no refunds will be given for either the Adoption
Fee or any expenses incurred since adoption. If a
horse adopted to you by us is found to have been
abused or neglected, we will prosecute you to the
fullest extent of the law following our recovery of
the animal. If a horse adopted to you by us is found
to have been sold, we will prosecute you to the
fullest extent of the law for theft. You must agree
to these conditions prior to the adoption becoming
final, and your signature, below, is proof of such
agreement.
Please
sign, date and return to Friends of Arabian Horses
