Re: [RC] breeding contracts again - A. Perez

What a horrible story!  You could try to take her to small
claims court on the the basis of having had a verbal agreement
and having paid the booking fee (assuming you want to go through
the hassle of taking her to court) if you are in a state that
considers verbal agreements to be binding (varies state to
state).

All in all, it makes artificial insemination look like the way
to go.  Also makes checking references of stallion owners look
like a good idea, too.

Hope it all works out!

Thank you to all who answered my question awhile back about
breeding contracts.  You gave me some good insight as to what to
expect.
I could use some further input....... The situation is this:
(Does not involve anyone on Ridecamp)
1. The owner of the stallion was to bring him to my home town to
stand at a place I'm familiar/comfortable with where he would be
handled by someone who has handled well over 20 stallions
successfully in the past.  I & several others were only willing
to breed if he were here locally.
2.  When the owner & I met, she had forgotten the mare contracts
but wanted me to pay the booking fees for both of my mares.  I
paid her one booking fee & said I'd send her the other one just
as soon as I received the contracts.
3.  She never sent any contracts.
4.  While trying to tease a mare, the stallion savaged the local
handler (bite her on the breast, collarbone, got her on the
ground & stomped on her back & arm).
5.  Owner has taken the stallion home (200 miles away).
6.  Owner says too bad about my booking fee, she's keeping it.
Any words of wisdom from you all would be appreciated.
