What's the difference between a liability waiver and a boarding agreement?

An equine liability waiver is signed by a participant (rider or handler) to release the stable from liability for the inherent risks of equine activities. A boarding agreement is a contract between the stable and the horse owner covering fees, care responsibilities, and the stable's lien rights for unpaid board.
