Most stud contracts guarantee a litter which is usually defined as two live puppies. If no litter results from a breeding, a free repeat service is usually offered. We usually pay half at the time of breeding and half when the litter is whelped.
Giving puppies for the stud fee gets complicated. Who gets to pick? What if stud dog owner wants a female and there are only males whelped. What if the stud dog owner can't make up his/her mind until the puppies are 12 weeks old. They will almost always want the same puppy you do.
Cash makes everything much simpler.
