ASSUMPTION OF RISKS
I am aware and understand that activities involving these horses involve many risks, dangers
and hazards, including, but not limited to the following:

  1. Horses, which are powerful and potentially dangerous animals, may change
    their behaviour at any time and may, without warning, jump, run wildly, buck,
    kick, bite, or step on people or things;
  2. Horses may collide with other horses or objects or trip, stumble or fall even if
    being led, ridden, or attended to;
  3. Negligence - which means, in general terms, a failure to exercise ordinary or
    proper care – or other riders or my or my child’s own failure to ride safely,
    within my or my child’s ability or within designated areas and trails;
  4. Equipment may fail;
  5. Weather conditions can change and can sometimes be dangerous;

    occur and it may be a considerable distance to doctors, hospitals, or any other
    type of assistance; and
  7. Negligence on the part of A PROPERTY OWNER AND-OR THE RANCH OR
    THEIR STAFF. I am also aware that the risks, dangers and hazards referred to
    above exist throughout the trail, stable, practice and other areas and many are
    unmarked. I understand and acknowledge that no amount of caution,
    experience, or instruction can eliminate all of the risks involved and I freely
    accept and fully assume all such risks, dangers and hazards and the possibility
    of personal injury, death, property damage and damages or loss resulting there
    from.
