Application for Acceptance as a FETRP Sanctuary Resident

Dear Applicant,

Please complete this form to the best of your ability.

FETRP is entirely dependent upon donations. Our ability to accept new horses as sanctuary residents is dependent on our current herd size and the generosity of our donors. The result is that your horse may be placed on a waiting list. Acceptance will be based on when the application is received to secure your spot on the list.

Criteria for retirement to the FETRP:

1. Jockey Club registration

2. Must have a race record

3. Pasture sound

4. No stallions (mares and geldings only)

Protocol for retirement to the FETRP:

1. The applicant has agreed to one of the Financial Expectations of this application (see below).

2. Owners are responsible for transporting horses to the nearest available FETRP facility.

3. Owner discloses all applicable medical and behavioral information regarding the horse so we may provide the best care and location within the FETRP facilities.

4. FETRP will maintain a waiting list based on available space, and sustainable funding.

Acceptance to FETRP means a lifetime commitment.

We look forward to receiving your completed application.

Very yours truly,

NOTE: Having an injury that requires extensive rehab does not disqualify a horse for our program at this time, however, veterinary records must be sent to us for our review prior to acceptance. Transfer of HISA ownership and Jockey Club registration papers is required if accepted.

I understand the horse is subject to FETRP’s review and approval of this application. If this application is accepted, I understand and agree to the following: By delivery of the Horse FETRP, I transfer complete ownership of the Horse to FETRP, which includes the care, custody and control of the animal, and the right to transfer ownership/registration to FETRP or to a person or organization adopting the Horse. FETRP shall have sole and full discretion on the care and disposition of the horse, to include making decisions on veterinary treatment or procedures; adoption of the horse to persons or organizations deemed suitable by FETRP’s determines suitable; or euthanasia. FETRP shall not be responsible for any fees, including boarding fees. FETRP will not pay any fees to past providers, and Owner will indemnify and hold FETRP harmless from any claim arising or lien asserted from such past care of the Horse. Liability and risk of loss remains with Owner until FETRP is in actual possession of the Horse. After acceptance of the delivery of the Horse, FETRP will provide a receipt acknowledging possession of the animal to the listed owner. FETRP is not able to provide an opinion on value, therefore Owner should arrange for the valuation of the animal prior to delivery, if a tax deduction is desired.

All matters arising from the horse entering FETRP will be construed under the laws of the State of Pennsylvania, and any action by either property shall be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Bucks County, Croydon. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the parties and there are no promises, agreements, representations or warranties other than those contained herein or expressly incorporated by reference. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts by email or electronic signatures, which counterparts shall be fully enforceable as a single original document. 

Thank you for you application.
