Additional Info or Comments:

Applicant agrees that Amaryllis Farm Equine Rescue ( also known as AFER),its

officers, and/or designated volunteers, retain the right to visit with and

inspect at any time, (both prior to, and subsequently following adoption):

the horse itself, as well as the premises, living quarters, and any related

conditions surrounding the horse and its care. This will remain a a

conditional term of adoption at all times. If at any time it is brought to

the attention of AFER that a placed horse is suffering due to neglect,

mistreatment, abuse or cruelty, AFER will IMMEDIATELY repossess the horse and may indeed press charges. Further, Adopter agrees that designated AFER volunteers may come onto the property/premises to remove said horse. In the event this occurs, no compensation will be made to the adopter and said adopter agrees to relinquish the horse willingly.

Applicant also agrees that paying any and all amounts owing in adopting a

horse also constitute a condition of adoption. Adopter agrees that

non-payment of monies owed also constitute grounds for removal and re-homing

of horse. Examples of monies include, but are not limited to: adoption fee,

veterinary fees, hauling fees and board fees.

Please initial to indicate that you agree to the above terms and conditions.
