I understand that this document is a legally binding contract.
The Sanctuary reserves the right to ownership of the animal should the contract be breached. I am happy for a member of the Sanctuary to visit.
I promise that Sammy will be kept in the house, as a member of my family.
He will be properly fed and exercised, and will receive Veterinary treatment whenever necessary.
I understand that Sammy can not be sold, given, or passed to any other person or animal group, without the Sanctuary’s prior consent. If at any time throughout his lifetime I am unable to keep him for whatever reason, he will be returned to the Sanctuary.
There is no guarantee that the dog is, or will be, free of disease or behavioural disorders. We make every effort to confirm that a dog is healthy and socially acceptable before placing it. We cannot, however, exclude the possibility of a lurking disorder in a particular animal.
I understand that the Sanctuary have passed on, in full, all the information they have about the dog concerned, and accept that in signing this form, I assume full legal responsibility,
and liabilities for the above mentioned dog.
Lizzies’ Barn Sanctuary is a non profit making rescue and relies on donations, to continue our rescue work. It costs the Sanctuary an average of £200 per dog, from rescue through to re-homing. To allow us to continue our work a nun- refundable donation of a minimum £150 payable to the Sanctuary, is expected at the time of adoption
