Can someone write me up a horse boarding contract , using minnesota laws, not California?
I am 16 years old and I am in the horse boarding business. I need to have a horse boarding contract that protects me and my property so i don't get sued for anything. The contract has to include the fees and monthly charges of boarding,including specialty request (grooming, excersizing,etc.) the board should be paid by check or money order. i want it to have the option of me supplying grain & hay or they supply their own. also, they supply any extra supplements. also, if their horse dies or gets sick , that i won't be held responsible, the horse owner is responsible for ALL happenings. the horse owner must be held responsible and has to pay for all damages their horse has caused. they are responsible for upkeep of horse(vet,farrier,dental) i have some more to have put in there, but there isn't enough room on this detail page, so email me @ mcgaga16@yahoo.com if you know and can help me draw up a plan, or if you already have one drawn up for your boarding stables. thanks!

These are two fairly good boarding contracts that you can download for free. But to get the very best contract that will protect you using the laws of your state, you may want to consult an attorney. I am sure that you could find one that would draft the contract for you for a reasonable price, if you give them all of the info that you have provided here. Good Luck. It sounds like you are well on your way to a successful business.

What?!? This lady sounds like a nut job. Give 30 days notice and haul a rse out of there right now. As long as you're paid up for the last month, it matters not whether the horse is actually there. EDIT: You could refuse to pay and break the contract, and you (or she) could go to Small Claims Court over it. It's up to you whether or not you think it would be worth the time and effort that would entail. Sure, you have a expectation to receive reasonable care, but the "skipping meals as punishment" is anecdotal evidence at best that may or may not have happened to others, and the poor job mucking stalls might not be cause enough for a judge to rule in your favor. Same with the comments the barn owner makes about your horse and the hogging of the wash stalls. Just my two cents'.

Try contacting your local extension office. I know the lady I boarded from(in WI) had gotten her contract from an extension office. Otherwise I know awhile ago Hobby Farms (a year and a half ago) had an excellent article on opening a boarding business. Something might be online ( http://www.hobbyfarms.com/ ?) or you could try finding old issues at a library or from a friend.
