If not, the buyer would be required to spay/neuter and provide proof, then receive registration papers, or return to the breeder to have them do the same. I am new to all this so just wondering. |
Not something I would agree to. If I was purchasing a Show prospect, that's what I would want. Why would someone want a possible pet, if they were looking for Show Prospect in the 1st place? I would be quickly looking elsewhere!
