In all actions prosecuted under the provisions of this Act, the court or jury who shall try the same, or make an assessment of damages therein, shall in addition to finding the sum due the plaintiff, also find that the same is due for the service fee of plaintiff's stallion or jack and is a lien on the mare or jennet or progeny thereof, or both, as described in plaintiff's claim for lien: Provided, however, that if the court or jury shall find the amount due the plaintiff is not a lien upon the property described in the plaintiff's claim for lien, the plaintiff's action shall not be dismissed thereby if personal service of summons has been had upon the defendant, but the plaintiff shall be entitled to judgment as in other civil actions; and in those cases where the amount due is found to be a lien upon the animal or animals described in plaintiff's claim for lien, the finding or verdict may be in the following form: "The court or jurors, as the case may be, say that there is due to the plaintiff the sum of .... dollars from the said defendant or defendants and that the same is due for the service fee of plaintiff's stallion or jack, and that the plaintiff has a lien upon said mare or jennet or progeny thereof, or both, as described in plaintiff's claim for lien for said amount," and in such case, the fee paid by the claimant to the recorder for filing his claim for lien shall be taxed as part of the costs of the action.
