  • How long the contract is for.

  • Identify the parties by name, address, and contact numbers.

  • Identification of  the horse(s) by description, name and if possible a photograph attached to the contract and initialled by both parties. Include a detailed physical description of the animal, its condition, and details of pre-existing injury. Tack and equipment provided with the horse should also be listed and identified if being kept at the yard. 

  • Detail all costs, and who is responsible for them.  Veterinary and farrier costs are usually the responsibility of the owner, and this should be included.  Detail any additional costs: worming, clipping, additional supplements required and whether they are included in the livery charge or how much will be charged.

  • Include credit terms - when the bill should be paid, whether in advance or arrears, and include a provision for an extra charge for bills overdue.  Also include a provision for recovery of legal fees, if needed, to obtain payment. 

  • An emergency Veterinary Care Authorization, including a clause allowing euthanasia on veterinary advice in an emergency if the owner cannot be reached. 

  • If an animal is covered by mortality or loss of use insurance, that fact should be noted by the owner in the livery contract.

  • Include the hours during which owners are welcome to come and ride or visit their horse(s).

  • How much for the day is the yard supervised and by whom?
