SKYLINE AGILITY CLUB INC.

Covenant and Assumption of Risk 

 I understand that my attendance and participation at any Skyline Agility Club, Inc. (‘Skyline”) class or agility trial is not without risk to myself, my dog(s) or any family member or guest who might be present at such function.  Some dogs to which we might be exposed may be difficult to control or conceivably be aggressive towards other canines, and may be a cause of injury even when handled with care.  I further understand that agility obstacles and courses, by their inherent nature, pose potential hazards to dogs and handlers, even when pursued with care.  I have examined and am familiar with the Skyline training facility, its obstacles and surrounding area and agility course, and assume all reasonable and customary risks incidental thereto.

   I hereby agree not to make any claim for injury of any nature which I or any family member may sustain by reason of the foregoing participation, and agree not to make any claim for injuries or damage to me, my family or dog, unless brought about due to gross negligence of Skyline, its agents, members, representatives or employees (if any).

   In further consideration of the foregoing and as an inducement to my participation in a Skyline Agility training class or Skyline sponsored agility trial, I do hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless and make no claim against any Skyline members, agents, representatives or employees (if any), except to the extent that any injury is brought about by the gross negligence of Skyline, or such members, agents, representatives, etc.  I covenant and agree to make n claim against Skyline or any of its members or representatives unless such injuries are brought about by gross negligence, as aforesaid.   This agreement, which I have read and understand is not be construed as a release, but as a covenant not to sue in the absence of gross negligence, as aforesaid.
