There are risks on both sides.
I wanted to add...
# 1 - if the new owner is not aware of exactly whet the breeder expects there can be a problem. Just have everything in writing in a contract. The co-ownerships I know of have mostly worked out well, but is based on trust.
#2 - Co-ownership can be bad for the breeder as well. Since the breeder is on the papers as co-owner and if the new owner does something unethical even without the breeder knowledge the co-owner is also accused and has a problem. So there must be trust on both sides.
* There needs to be complete communication on both sides, because if there is a break up of communication and one does something the other does not agree upon there can be a problem. Again, just be sure to have everything in writing and both parties must follow it. |
I definately agree with that!! Glad you brought up those great points!!
