ODYSSEY FARM

All horses are sold with a written purchase agreement that must be signed by the new owner of the horse before its departure. This agreement covers both buyer and seller information, terms of payment, and all standard terms of purchase and bill of sale as required by law.

​

Additionally, the agreement includes the Purchaser's acknowledgements of the following:

​

• Upon receipt of the purchase price (in cleared funds), the ownership of the Horse shall pass from the Seller to the Purchaser.
   

• The Seller strongly recommends that the Purchaser adequately insures the Horse (preferably covering third party liability, major medical, mortality, theft, and loss of use) prior to or immediately upon payment.
   

• Responsibility for any loss, damage or injury whatsoever caused by the Horse shall pass to the Purchaser.
   

• The Seller will release possession of the Horse to the Purchaser or his/her employee/agent together with all required documents.
   

• The Purchaser (or another person designated by the Purchaser) in coordination with the Seller will arrange for the transportation of the Horse from the Seller’s premises, (at the Seller’s and the Purchaser’s convenience) at the Purchaser’s expense.
   

• If the Horse is not collected immediately upon ownership of the Horse passing from the Seller to the Purchaser, the Purchaser agrees to indemnify the Seller against all costs incurred in caring for the Horse until the Horse is collected by the Purchaser or his employee/agent. Any loss, damage or injury howsoever caused by the Horse while the Horse is at the Seller’s premises awaiting collection by the Purchaser shall be the Purchaser’s responsibility.
   

• The Purchaser acknowledges that the Seller makes no representation as to the past, current, or future health, fitness, performance, ability or material defects which the Purchaser acknowledges have been disclosed by the Seller.
   

• The Purchaser has inspected the Horse and is satisfied with its health, fitness, ability, and suitability for Purchaser's desired purpose.
   

• The Purchaser acknowledges that they have been given the right and opportunity to conduct a veterinary inspection and pre-purchase exam, which the Purchaser may instruct a vet to perform at his/her discretion. In accepting or declining the opportunity to have the Horse inspected by a vet, the Purchaser waives all rights to bring a claim against the Seller in respect of any matter revealed or which should have been revealed by the vet during that inspection.
   

• In the event the opportunity to conduct a veterinary inspection and/or pre-purchase exam is declined by the Purchaser, the Purchaser agrees that they are purchasing the horse in "as is" condition.
   

• The Purchaser accepts that horses are unpredictable by nature and that horseback riding is a high risk sport. The Seller is unable to predict how any horse will mature or develop under new ownership however the Seller will provide full details of the Horse’s routine and current exercise/feed/tack requirements in order to give the Horse the best opportunity of settling into its new home. Neither Seller, Seller's agent, nor Odyssey Farm shall be responsible for any damage, injury, illness, behavioral change, or any other loss sustained to or caused by the Horse as a result of the Purchaser's choice to deviate from the recommended management and/or care of the Horse.
