the very first thing you should do is have him tested for genetic problems. he needs to be tested for luxating patella, leggs-perthes, liver shunt. STD's even if he has never been a stud before. those are the main ones I can think of right now but there are others. you need to research every dog in his pedigree. as far as what to charge, go with whatever other people in your area charge. Someone posted a good stud contract the other day. I have one but it is not in my computer where I can post it for you. hopefully, someone else will. Also, be aware that it may change his personality. My stud hasn't changed at all except he gets hateful when the girls are in heat. it has not increased his marking and etc. |
