- The Mare Owner agrees to observe protocol for shipment of fresh cooled semen as determined by Mt Dragon Pony Acres LLC.
- Mt Dragon Pony Acres LLC assumes responsibility only to deliver fresh cooled semen from the herein named stallion in viable condition at the time of delivery to the Mare Owner.

- Should Mt Dragon Pony Acres LLC fail to deliver live cooled viable semen from the stallion herein named on the correct date, or if a licensed veterinarian determines upon examining the semen, using proper procedures, that the semen is not viable for breeding purposes, the Mare Owner will be entitled to one additional shipment of semen free of charge.

Written notice of loss of any pregnancy after the 60 day check is required within 10 days of examination in the form of a Veterinarian’s Certificate in order to receive return privileges.
- In the event that the mare is sold after breeding, no return privileges shall be made to the purchasing party unless such refund or return privilege is guaranteed in writing by Mt Dragon Pony Acres LLC prior to her sale.

- This contract carries a live foal guarantee. If the mare herein named, or the mare substituted, fails to produce a foal that cannot stand and nurse, the Mare Owner will be entitled to a return breeding in the following season, provided Mt Dragon Pony Acres LLC is presented with a Veterinarian’s Certificate outlining the details of the failed pregnancy or the foal’s death within 10 days of its occurrence. Failure to provide the Veterinarian Certificate within 10 days will nullify the guarantee.
- Should the Mare Owner use return privileges, these same terms and conditions apply.
