I knnow she is going to be a great mommy though - parting with the pups will be MY biggest challenge! I think my poor fiance already fears we will end up keeping one 
I want to put contracts into place with the new owners when the time comes - is there anywhere I could get a template from to base mine on? My pups will be registered with KUSA which is the South African registery and Im putting breeding restrictions on them all regardless. Simply because I know how much work I have had to do getting to this point...and so many people just breed for the money. The lady that owns my females sister from the same litter wants to breed her and im trying desperately to talk her out of it because she has done NO research and thinks it's a simple matter of letting them mate, popping out some puppies and making some money. I expect to come out in a negative balance! Which I am also prepared for - my dogs have their own bank account in the long run it's all about the love of the breed for me! |
There are plenty templates out there for contracts. However, your best bet is to develop one with a laywer. Once that protects the pup first and equally covers the best interest of the seller and buyer. It should be in keeping with the laws of your local. Cover all the basis, but the pup is number one.
There are so many contracts out there, that aren't worth the paper they are written on. But, also keep in mind that a contract is only as good as the two people signing it. In other words if you don't trust a person, then you shouldn't be placing a pup with them. And if they don't trust you they shouldn't be buying a pup from you. My mentor and I have never had a contract between us.....It's always been a smile and a kiss on the cheek. But, we trust each other implicitly.
