During these harder economic times I've made my contracts tougher, so that it is about the dog's best interests, first and formost. I tell my buyers I don't want my dogs to land up in shelters or rescues, ever. If they can't keep the dogs, I want to assist in the rehoming, I want to know where the dogs are at all times. If that makes me too involved with my puppy buyers, as the breeder, I can't help that.

Great ideas!
