·         Mare must be in healthy and sound breeding condition, and free from infections, contagious and transmittable disease.

The stallion handler/owner agrees to diligently try to settle the mare during the current breeding season. Should conception not occur (as evidenced by ultrasounds by a qualified veterinarian) after three consecutive breeding cycles, the stallion owner shall have earned all chute and booking fees, and all expenses occurred, but not the balance of the breeding fee, and shall have no further obligations to the mare owner.

Heather Grovet has the right to refuse any mare deemed a danger to the handlers and/or stallion.

Fees:     The following fees are associated with this breeding. All fees must be paid in full and received prior to mare owner picking up mare after live cover. Payments should be made by certified cheque or e-transfer.

1.       Booking fee – A non-refundable booking fee of $200 Canadian dollars (or $150 US dollars) is due at the signing of this contract to Heather Grovet. This will assure you of a slot in the booking schedule for the stallion.
2.       Breeding fee - A fee of $400 Canadian ($300 US) is due to Heather Grovet prior to the first covering of the mare. This fee, along with the booking fee, is for the stallion's services. This would make the total $600 Canadian ($450 US). See consideration below for discounts.

3.        Chute fees - A fee of $150 Canadian will be paid to Heather Grovet of Battle River Farms before mare is picked up. This fee is a one time cost and will cover two cycles of the mare, if required, without extra charges.
4.       Mare care will be paid at the price of $10/day dry mare and $15 day/wet mare to Battle River Farms for mares to be bred live cover. Mares will be provided with suitable care and feeding while at the facility. The mare owner will be responsible for all veterinarian and farrier expenses while the mare is the breeder's facilities.

Re-breeding – The mare will have the right to a re-breed in the 2021 breeding season under the following conditions.

1) Live Foal Guarantee – In the event that the mare is barren, aborts or produces a foal that is unable to stand alone and nurse, and subsequently dies within the first 24 hours, a return breeding will be guaranteed the following year only.
2) Colour guarantee – The foal will be eligible for APHA Regular Registration or a half price re-breed will be granted the following year only. This colour guarantee applies whether the mare is AQHA, APHA Regular Registry or APHA SPB. Due to the changes in APHA, foals that appear SPB but carry a colour characteristic such as a blue eye, freckles on white markings, high white legs, may now qualify for Regular Registry where they wouldn't before. Any mare owner with a foal that appears SPB must send a photo to Heather Grovet for inspection before qualifying for the half price re-breed.
3) If Good N Lazy is sold or relocated before the 2021 breeding season, Heather Grovet offers these refunds to mares bred in 2020. Live foal guarantee - if Good N Lazy is sold then Heather Grovet will refund the full stud fee but will keep the $150 chute fee. If foal does not qualify for Regular Registry, Heather Grovet offers 50% refund of the stud fee, but will keep the chute fee. These conditions are ONLY offered if Good N Lazy isn't available locally for rebreeding.

· Purchaser agrees that Heather Grovet does not make any guarantees to the quality of the foal, or that the foal will be free of any infirmity, conformation defect, disease or inherited trait.

·         Chute fees will apply to all re-breeding, whether caused by a deceased foal or a SPB.
