I don't believe she's contractually obligated to either party. |
I am sorry...I should have said, in MY mind....I KNOW IN MY HEART AND MIND, that female did not get pregnant by immaculate conception, and I think the ETHICAL thing to do, would be to compensate the person responsible for impregnating the dog. I understand
ethical and
legal are certainly not synomynous. I have to look in the mirror everyday, so I try to avoid situations where my integrity and ethics are compromised. To NOT acknowledge the stud and compensate THAT breeder for the litter, TO ME, is akin to stealing....."to take and carry away wrongfully with intent to keep" and then profit from, by selling, the "goods". If no one else sees this as wrong, just write me off as a loony old lady!!!
