In the paperwork there is a field for designating whether or not it's OK to breed him, but it is not blacked out to indicate that he is not supposed to be bred. In other words, there is no documentation that confirms the breeders claim.
As new owners we would like to breed him, but have no idea how to proceed. Does anyone have any recommendations on how to properly move forward with breeding him, given the aforementioned situation.
Thanks for your help!  |
Morals, Honesty, Integrity, are most often exhibited when one is sure beyond a shadow of a doubt, (like the breeder TELLING you NOT to breed this dog) and even though a paper mistake was made one does the right thing, and honors the legitimate request.
In my humble opinion, if you choose to breed this dog it will just be the first of many corners you will cut, all of which in the big picture will be detrimental to the breed.
Please do the right thing, and DO NOT BREED THIS DOG.
