Terms & Conditions

Assumption of Risks: Ownership, possession and care of any animal carries with it certain inherent risks that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries. I know and understand these and other risks that are inherent to meet an animal. I hereby acknowledge that this animal adoption is voluntary and that I knowingly assume all such risks.

In consideration of being permitted to adopt the Animal(s), I, for myself, my heirs, personal representatives and accompanied individuals with me, during the time of adoption and  / or meet and greet appointments, do hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to hold liable Greenfield Pets Animal Rescue, its officers, volunteers, fosters, and agents for any claim of damage or loss of any kind, whether for personal injury, property damage, accident, illness or death that may be caused to me or any other person, or to any property, by reasons of the adoption, ownership, care, possession, or contact with the Animal, whether or not such damage or loss results from any error, omission or negligence of Greenfield Pets Animal Rescue, or any of its officers, fosters, or agents.

Indemnification and Hold Harmless: I agree to indemnify and hold Greenfield Pets Animal Rescue, and its officers, employees and agents, harmless from any and all claims, actions, suits, procedures, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities, including, but not by way of limitation, attorneys’ fees incurred in the defense of any claim or action, that arises out of, or is directly or indirectly related to my adoption, ownership, possession or control of the Animal.

Severability: The undersigned further expressly agrees that the foregoing waiver and assumption of risks agreement is intended to be as broad and inclusive as is permitted by the law of the State of New York and that if any portion thereof is held invalid, it is agreed that the balance shall, notwithstanding, continue in full legal force and effect.

I represent and acknowledge that I have read this animal adoption agreement and waiver of liability, assumption of risk, and indemnity agreement, and fully understand its terms. I understand that I am giving up rights, including my right to sue. I acknowledge that I am signing the agreement freely and voluntarily and intend by my signature to be a complete and unconditional release of all liability to the greatest extent allowed by law.
