The mare owner agrees to let either our veterinarian ( Dr Paton and Associates) or their own vet administer tranquilizer to the mare if the mare does not stand satisfactorily for breeding rendering breeding dangerous for the stallion or the handlers of the stallion/mare. ie: kicking, charging etc. The stallion owner and employees of Richard
Pyke Performance Horses will however try to make the breeding as uneventful and as safe as possible for the stallion, mare and handlers.
If the mare (or foal if at the mare’s side) contracts any illness, is injured in any way or any other medical circumstances occur, the Mare Owner gives The Breeder/Richard Pyke
Performance horses permission to call either the Mare Owner’s vet or our attending veterinarian without first contacting the owner. However, we will attempt to call the owner first by phone before any treatment occurs. If we think it is a serious situation that needs immediate attention we will not wait to contact the owner before treatment occurs.
The mare owner will accept all responsibility for all vet bills on the mare (and foal if applicable) while in our care whether we phone the vet or the mare owner does.
Should the mare not settle during the 2005 season, should the mare abort or not have a live foal (standing and nursing) the Mare Owner is entitled to a re-breeding during the
2006 season for the same mare. Only the breeding is free all other fees apply. The following conditions apply for the re-breeding guarantee:

Breeder must be notified of the aborting or death of the foal within 2 days by phone or 1 week in writing. This notice must:
1) Be accompanied by a signed statement by a licensed veterinarian stating the loss of pregnancy, death of the foal and that the foal did not stand and suck prior to death.
2) The mare must have been checked in foal within 3 weeks of breeding date and rechecked between 45-60 days after the last breeding date and the breeder must have been informed in writing of the mare’s condition at theses checks.
3) The mare must have received Rhino vaccinations at 5,7 and 9 months of pregnancy.
The Breeder, Richard Pyke and all Richard Pyke Performance Horses employees or agents or attending veterinarian(s) will not be held accountable for any damage to the mare whether by death, disease, injury,infection or otherwise and by any cause whatsoever.
