Also it is a good way for breeder to retain breeding rights-obviously you can't tell which of your pups will be for breeding quality until they fully mature....
Personally I know a well guy whom travels a lot he's not quite a trucker though-he's a little mix, and as soon as my great aunt and uncle go their RV to ravel around they got a lil dog. But I too would be hesitant of someone looking for a companion and then wanting two spontaneously and at the same time...be paranoid and dramatic if I were in your position! |
They are going out on a limited registration. I didn't want to neuter them as a breeder looked at them for me and said the one boy was definitely a potential and not to do neuter at this time in case he doesn't sell as a breeder might want him down the line/try to hold on to him, so I'm attempting to sell the other first.
I suppose one could design their own version of a breeding rights contract, the only ones I've seen are too one sided to me (side for the breeder) to be ethical, thus I wasn't going to get into that.
Trucker: I told him to go home (well to his daughter & son-in-laws as he's from the mid west and is visiting for the holidays) and think about it carefully as two pups on the road might be difficult (he owns the business apparently and only drives part of the time) and if he was still interested we could meet again next week, figured I could analyze the situation better (I didn't totally close the door, but I think he saw I had my doubts)
We'll see.
Thanks
