Adoption Rules and requirements--
Adoption fees vary on individual horses- this is based on
training, special needs, and cost incurred to rescue each
animal. To qualify to adopt a horse there is a $25 application
fee (non-refundable) , 3 personal references and a vet and
farrier reference- - once approved then there is the adoption
fee per animal , and a $60 health certificate and coggins fee
(nonrefundable) per animal . Shipping is the responsibility of
the adopter and all horses are to be picked up and or shipped
within 3 weeks of contracts signed . All horse shipped with
professional hauler will have a $30 halter and lead rope fee..
After that there will be a $9 per day board charge and after 1
month the animal is put back up for adoption and the fee is
considered a donation to the rescue.
All horses that are going to be boarded are required to have
the boarding facility sign and return a boarding contract.
Special arrangements can be made and EPONA will work with
each adopter to get their horses home.
A representative of EPONA Horse Rescue must be able to verify
the location and care of the horse on a regular basis for the first
year after adoption. At this time if we feel that the horse is
NOT being cared for properly, we reserve the right to
immediately repossess the horse at the adopters expense and
transport the horse back to our facilities. The adopter will NOT
be reimbursed for the adoption fee. If at any time during the
adoptin process or the first year after the adoption is finalized
EPONA and the directors can void the adoption if there is a real
danger to the horse or adopter. Such acts that can cause
termination of adoptin are neglect, disregard for the safety of
your horse or an unwillingness to continue training and
education at advise of EPONA personal feel that there is a real
danger to the horse or the adopter the adoption will become
null and void and the horse will become/remain the property of
EPONA.
