I'm wondering if those that hope the owner of the dog would give (pre-arrange) it back in the event of something happening to them I assume the breeder would now be "buying" that dog back for what the owner paid for it (in the event of death, paid to the survivor)...is that correct? If not, isn't the breeder essentially "leasing" the dog, rather than selling it? It's one thing to say you'd be willing to take the dog back but demanding someone do so wouldn't fall under the conditions of a "sale" as once someone has made a purchase it's theirs and the "pre" owner relinquishes all rights and privileges no matter what a "sale" contract might add, as it a contract must be "reasonable" in the eyes of the law. Anyway, just wondering as it seems odd to try to dictate someone else's "property" --- which I know it's a live animal and we don't like to refer to our little babies as "property" but in the eyes of the law, like it or not, it's "property" bought and paid for. |
