Aqha Lease Agreement Form
Filing a lease with the AQHA is a fairly simple process that is often overlooked. Many people don`t know when they enter into a lease with a U.S. Quarter Horse owner that they must formally file the lease with the AQHA. This is a very important step. You protect yourself and every investment you make by signing a lease. It`s always good to have it in black and white! These are your basic rental rules. What happens if the lease has to be terminated prematurely? As mentioned above, all other transfers will be held until the end or end of the lease. First, let`s review the rules for renting a horse for breeding purposes (Rule 225). A horse can be rented according to the rules of the AQHA for two purposes: breeding or exhibition. And here`s the catch: if you rent a horse for breeding, the horse can`t be shown (rule 402(d)). If you rent a horse to show it, it cannot be bred until the lease is terminated.
That`s what you need to know to get started. When you rent a horse for presentation purposes, there are a few extras. The most common question I get, and also the most obvious difference between renting for breeding and exhibiting, is that the owner of the horse can still issue the horse while the lease is in effect.
