\n\t\tHorse Adoption
\n\t<\/h3>\n

Adopting a horse through CANTER is a 5 step process. Click on one of the steps to learn more.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t1 – Adoption Approval Form<\/p>\n

Anyone interested in adopting a horse from CANTER is required to fill out the Adoption Approval Form, which can be found on the website. It should only take you 10-15 minutes to fill it out online.<\/p>\n

You can also print out the pdf and mail it to the contact address listed on this page.<\/p>\n

Please call your veterinary clinic to let them know they will be receiving a Vet Reference and ask them to respond to it.<\/p>\n

Please fill out the Approval Form even if you don\u2019t yet see the right horse for you. You may be pre-approved when you find your horse. If you wait, the horse you want may be adopted by someone who is already approved.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t2 – Approval<\/p>\n

Once your Approval Form has been processed you will be notified by e-mail stating that you are either approved or not approved. If not approved, the reasons will be explained.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t3 – Adoption Fee<\/p>\n

The horse\u2019s adoption fee must be paid before the horse is moved. Fee may be paid by cash, check, Master Card or Visa. If the horse needs additional certificates for shipping, there will be a charge for those services.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t4 – Conditional Lifetime Bill of Sale<\/p>\n

The Conditional Lifetime Bill of Sale (see attachments at end of this page) must be signed before the horse leaves our facility. The Conditional Lifetime Bill of Sale is a binding legal contract between you and CANTER. Make sure that you read the Bill of Sale and understand it completely.<\/p>\n

\t\t\t5 – Transportation<\/p>\n

Once the adoption fee has been paid, the adopter arranges transportation. For 3 days, CANTER will pay for the board of the horse. After 3 days, the adopter will be charged $15 a day for board of their new horse. If transportation is needed, talk to your CANTER representative. All horses must be picked up in a trailer large enough for a thoroughbred.<\/p>\n
