for any reason. If the mare is unable to be bred, mare owner may substitute a mare with GDA’s
approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.			

6.. Mare owner must administer Rhino vaccines at 5, 7 and 9 months of pregnancy. Failure to do
so will nullify the live foal guarantee.		

7.  GDA will make a diligent effort to settle every mare. In the event of injury, illness or death,
GDA will not be held liable. 

8. The mare must be examined by a licensed veterinarian between 18 and 30 days to determine
pregnancy status at the mare owners expense, and GDA notified of her status within 10 days of the
examination.

9. Should the stallions die, or otherwise become unfit for breeding, GDA may transfer this contract
to another GDA stallion. Should the mare die or become unfit for breeding, this contract is null
and void unless written approval by GDA is issued granting a substitute mare.

10. Mare Owner agrees to pay all expenses monthly. GDA is granted and guaranteed a security
interest in the mare and resulting foal against any debt incurred at GDA by the mare owner.

11. This contract is not transferable in whole or part without written consent of GDA.	

12. GDA will issue a Breeders Certificate when notified of the birth of the foal provided there is
no outstanding debt to GDA. In the event of debt, the Breeders Certificate will be issued when the
debt is satisfied.
			 						
13. If a mare fails to breed, or fails to produce a colored foal, the right to rebreed may be exercised

$250 booking fee must be paid to exercise the rebreed contract option. 				

14. Shipped semen is $250 per shipment which includes semen dose(s), disposable container and
shipping. 							

15. Prior to shipping semen GDA requires payment be complete, a copy of the mares papers,24
hours notice and a valid couriers address.
						

16. GDA guarantees a live foal from this breeding. If the mare is found to be open, and all the
prerequisites are met, GDA will extend the contract for the follow year only when the booking
fees are paid. This guarantee is null and void if GDA is not notified within 10 days of finding the
mare to be open, or demise of the foal, and must be accompanied by a statement from a licensed
veterinarian. All semen shipping fees, booking fees, vet and other related expenses are associated
with this rebreed guarantee.

17. GDA required 24 hour notice prior to SHIPPING semen to allow for veterinarian and courier
preparation. Please remember these stallions are subject to a heavy show schedule, and may be
competing and therefore unavailable for breeding occasionally. Please keep GDA informed of
your mares reproductive status so alternative arrangements can be made.
				


18. If frozen semen is used, it will be made available at the veterinarians office for insemination
on site, or Mare Owner may arrange transport at Mare Owners cost. Availability of frozen semen
doses may be limited by quantity at any given time. 
In the event that inseminations using the standard 3 doses (1 dose is described as 800 million total
sperm) of frozen semen from the Stallion do not result in a live foal as certified by a licensed
veterinarian, GDA will provide an additional 3 doses of frozen semen from the Stallion for
inseminations in the current breeding season where above costs  must be paid by Mare Owner. At
this point GDA. will have fulfilled their obligations under this contract.
